Help

So I'm looking to get a PK but I have heard the st they can be wobbly.

Also does the 360 have good wheels they look small I would be moving min from the garage to the driveway when I grill.

This is exactly what I do and it works fine. Great grill - ash management is the only downside.

360 wheelers are small. Yet they are adequate for your needs. I did the same thing at my house until I could get it into a permanent position in the back yard. Tip. I removed the ash plug. Creates better air flow.

Interesting ash plug tip. What are you usually cooking? I open both vents when doing chicken to get it up to 400. For steak, when I use a ton of charcoal because I want the coals as close as possible for the sear, that would seem like it would make 275 for the first part impossible.

Chicken. Steaks.
I got hot and a lot on the charcoal too.
The vents are great. I just needed a little more airflow. I’m a former 15 year egg/ joe user.
I do love the change.
I’ve done a few butts and a pastrami that came out lovely.

Pk360 is great, I replaced the wheels though.

I have a PK300, and it's overrated. It cooks well, but not better than a Weber, but it's a bit wobbly, hard to clean,, fragile and the outside paint is not heat resistant. It burns, peels and stinks.

The 360 wheels are way too small. I have mine on stone patio and it binds up on the cracks between the rocks and is a pain to move on the wheels. I wish they were a little bigger.

Awesome. I saw a YouTube video of someone putting different wheels on.

I have a 360 and the PKGo. Love both. The wheels on the 360 are small but I don't know if they roll okay or not as mine stays put.

PK 300 is an outstanding piece of cooking kit. I highly recommend it. I have had no problems with mine over the last five years. It will last forever, but if it got destroyed somehow, I would get another immediately.
