Overview
The PIT Boss 11111 is a pellet smoker in stainless steel, built for low and slow wood fired cooking rather than quick grilling, weighing 175 lb for stable outdoor use.
Pellet smokers burn compressed wood pellets fed by an auger, which lets the cooker hold a set temperature for hours without constant tending. That makes them a common choice for barbecue over direct-heat grilling.
- Pellet fuel smoker
- Stainless steel construction
- 34 x 58.7 x 46.6 in
- 175 lb
Who it's for
Suited to home cooks who want to smoke ribs, brisket or pork shoulder over several hours with less manual fire management than charcoal. Not intended for people who just want a quick weeknight grill.
Pros and cons
- Pellet fed for steadier temperature control
- Stainless steel build for outdoor durability
- 175 lb weight makes it hard to move or store indoors
- Requires electricity to run the auger and igniter
Performance notes
Pellet fuel gives more consistent temperature control than charcoal since an auger regulates the burn rate, though it depends on electricity to run the feed system and igniter. At 175 lb the unit is heavy enough to stay put outdoors but is not easily portable.
