Woodwind Pro 36

36-inch version of the Woodwind Pro with roughly 1,236 sq in of total cooking area and a 22 lb hopper, still sold new by major retailers.

$1,499Approx. MSRP

Best for someone who regularly smokes for large groups and wants extra capacity and smoke flavor, but a poor fit for small patios or first-time grill owners wary of a longer assembly.

Pros

  • Large cooking capacity suited to cooking for a crowd
  • Smoke box delivers noticeably richer smoke flavor than sealed-firebox competitors
  • WiFi app control with cook history is well liked
  • Strongly rated overall (4.6/5 on manufacturer site with few low scores)
  • Loads of cooking room — 1236 sq in feeds a crowd

Watch-outs

  • Large footprint needs real patio/yard space
  • Assembly can take a long time and instructions/video have been criticized as inaccurate
  • Expensive relative to basic 36-inch pellet grills
  • Heavy (220 lb) — pick its spot and leave it

Known niggles

  • Rare but repeated reports of flare-ups/fire risk during high-heat reverse-sear use
  • Smoke box can be stiff to open and close once hot
  • Assembly instructions described as poor or inaccurate by several buyers
