The Huntsman™

I was searching for a charcoal kettle grill that could handle long cooks like a kamodo but also had the set it and forget it ease of a pellet smoker. This does it all fantastically. Also, seems like it will last a lifetime. Only ding I would say is that the app requires a reboot every time I check it. Not the biggest deal. Great grill!

I have used my new grill five times since it arrived and must admit that I'm a little disappointed. I'm not seeing the investment justification on the purchase price other than built quality. I have the 26 inch model and I can't get the temperature above 450 degrees. I'm hopping that my opinion changes with more use. It just might be more grill than I need?

Got my spider grill about 3 weeks ago now. So far, I really like it! Customer service with this company is solid. I had an issue with the brackets that hold the right side tray on (see in picture) and they mailed me a new bracket immediately, fixing the problem.

It’s very well made and feels very heavy duty. I like the venom controller. It takes a bit to dial in and get used too, so prepare to test it out over a few different cooks, but it does work well and is pretty cool technology. The grill does hold its heat well. Prepare to use a lot of charcoal as well. I’m still dialing that in. Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase and I look forward to cooking and smoking on it this summer.

My only complaint is with the lid attachment that holds the lid tight. It doesn’t open and close very well on my grill. I’ve tried different things and can’t figure that out for some reason. It’s just very finicky and honestly hard to open at times, but it is functional and I believe it will loosen over time.

This grill is everything i hoped it would be. It is impressively built ands heavy duty and i believe it will last forever. The controller is what i was excited about and it did not disappoint. Its ability to both get the grill hot real fast or to drop the temp is very impressive. I would give it 5 stars but i did have a issue with installing the side shelves cause a bolt broke just trying to remove it to add the shelf which was a big pain but luckily the part the threads were stuck in was able to be removed and i was able to get it out with a vise and clean the threads up and add the shelve on with the new bolt the kit comes with. No one likes bolts that break straight out of the factory but after all that it works great and i wouldn't change a thing on it even after all that its definitely my favorite grill.

I've been using a pellet grill for the last 15ish years. but wanted something that would impart more smoke flavor and that I could sear on. So, I started looking at ceramic kamado grills for the last couple of years and almost pulled the trigger a few times. Came across the Huntsman on some YouTube reviews and decided to get one. I will say I'm so happy I did. You get the charcoal flavor and the ease of having easy temperature control of a pellet grill with way more versatility. The build quality is great. It's built like a tank. Not one part of this thing feels cheap. Everything down to the casters seem like quality. Even the tool kit they give you (which somehow, I lost already, but that's my fault) has an actual ratchet and sockets and a zipper pouch. Not some bendy Allen key like everything else you buy. The venom system works perfectly and is easily controlled from the front panel or from my smartphone. So far it seems to hold temps perfectly. I absolutely love this grill. I never leave reviews on anything, but I feel like the Huntsman and Spider Grills deserve it.
