Our verdict

A wood pellet smoker from an established smoker brand, worth a look for anyone moving from charcoal to a hopper fed setup, though check Camp Chef's own spec sheet for cooking area before buying.

Overview

The Camp Chef CHPCY is a pellet smoker that burns wood pellets as fuel, placing it in Camp Chef's wood fired smoker line rather than the charcoal or propane category.

Beyond fuel and material, the listing does not include cooking area, hopper capacity or temperature range, so exact capacity for a given household size is not confirmed here. Pellet smokers in general trade the constant tending of charcoal for hopper fed, more automated heat, which is the main appeal of this fuel type.

Pellet smokers feed wood pellets from a hopper into a firebox to hold a set temperature, which generally means less manual adjustment than charcoal but still real wood smoke flavor. Specific hopper size and temperature range are not listed here.
