It is the one-of-a-kind Grill, Smoker, Griddle and Deep Fryer. The grill is pellet-fed for the heat source, and has a smoke box for your wood chips to add the smoke flavoring you want for your smoked meats or fish. Your grill grates transfer the heat for the excellent grill marks without all the flare ups.
Using the flat top (griddle) you can cook bacon, eggs, biscuits, sausage, pancakes, even stir fry. Now on to the deep fryer: it is just right for two to six people ... frying fish, shrimp, french fries, hushpuppies, and onion rings. The Pellet Chef has a grease guard and heat diverter that can be used for direct or indirect heat, and both can be open and closed from the outside without having to bother removing the racks or disturbing your meat.
The Pellet Chef weighs 206 lbs.
As our smallest and most portable Backwoods Cooker, the Chubby also serves as one of our most versatile offerings in our cooker lineup. The Backwoods Smoker Chubby can easily be converted into a grill or a BBQ pit by simply removing the stainless water pan.
The Chubby weighs in at a hefty 130 lbs.
The G2 Chubby is a bigger version of our original Chubby.
The upgrades from the original Chubby include additional 6″ of smoker depth, heavy duty wire racks, a new large capacity fire box and a bigger water pan. These additions are what our customers asked for the capacity for larger cuts of meat and the ability to hold the full size steam pans. Also, we added the heat diverter as a standard feature.
The weight of a G2 Chubby is 160 lbs.
Some call the Party the perfect cooker ... and we humbly tend to agree!

The Backwoods Piglet is basically two party units that have been joined side by side. It features a unique door system which flips up on two pneumatic pumps. The Piglet was born out of the need of our customers who are cooking whole pork shoulders or even small whole hogs. Our Memphis in May customers especially appreciate the extra cooking space.
The Piglet comes with 3 racks, which are made of expanded metal. Double the capacity of the party unit, and you have the Piglet.
