A pellet grill is a type of outdoor cooking appliance that uses wood pellets as fuel. These pellets are made from compressed sawdust and provide a unique flavor to the food being cooked. Pellet grills combine the features of a traditional grill and a smoker, allowing for versatile cooking methods such as grilling, smoking, baking, and roasting. The grill operates using an electronic control system that regulates the temperature and feeds the pellets into a fire pot. This ensures consistent heat and smoke, making it easier for users to achieve desired cooking results. Popular brands include Traeger and Camp Chef.
