Digitally controlled, wood-pellet-burning smokers are increasingly popular because of their flavorful and versatile cooking abilities, as well as their ease of use. With the SmokePro SG, Camp Chef is increasing the smoker’s utility even further by adding integral, smoker-safe temperature probes and a direct-flame grilling function in the form of its Slide and Grill (SG) heat-deflecting plate. In typical smoking mode, a plate that covers the burn box and protects food from direct flame can be moved for traditional grilling and finishing by the simple pull of a rod. Other features include: an 811-sq.-in. cooking-rack surface (cooking area is 4,850 cu. in.); electronic ignition with automatic start; automatic pellet feed; and LED, dual-temperature readouts for internal cooking and internal food (via wired probes) temperatures. Price: $750. Contact: Camp Chef; (800) 650-2433; campchef.com.
