Cooking space, per the listing

Spread over 4 racks. That is every rack added up, so count racks rather than square inches when you plan a big smoke.

What it has going for it

616 sq in

Spread over several racks, that is ribs on one level and wings or sausages on another, in a footprint smaller than a barrel grill.

Meat probe included

Read the inside of the meat without opening the lid, so the heat and the smoke stay where they belong.

4 racks

Stacked racks are the whole point of a vertical smoker: jerky on one, ribs on another, sausages on a third.

What changes on cook day

A vertical cabinet changes how much you smoke at once: 4 racks and 616 sq in in total, so jerky, ribs and sausages can go in together. It is a smoker first; steaks still want a hot grill.

The probe in the box tells you when the meat is done, so the lid stays shut and the smoke stays in.

Smoker or all-rounder?

Smoker. A vertical cabinet stacks the food on 4 racks, which is great for jerky, sausages and big batches of ribs.

If you also want burgers and seared steaks from the same machine, a barrel-style pellet grill is the better single buy.

Best for you if

  • You would rather read the meat than poke it and guess
  • You smoke big batches: jerky, sausages, a dozen racks of ribs

Skip it if

  • You want to watch the cook from your phone: there is no WiFi here
  • You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet

Setup and what you get

Assembly day. Plan an hour or two with a second pair of hands. Most manuals ask for a first burn-in before the first cook.

Its spot. Level ground, a few feet from the wall and anything that can melt, an outlet in reach, and room to open the cabinet door fully. A cover keeps the pellets and the controller dry between cooks.

The verdict

The PIQUEBAR Vertical Pellet Smoker earns its place with 616 sq in of cooking space and a meat probe in the box. No buyer reviews yet, so this PIQUEBAR vertical pellet smoker has to win you over on paper. The one thing that bugs us: no word on the temperature range or the warranty. We'd pick the PIQUEBAR if you would rather read the meat than poke it and guess; otherwise, put it next to the PIQUEBAR Vertical Smoker (616 sq in) first.

The one thing we'd check first

Before you order the PIQUEBAR Vertical Pellet Smoker and wait for the delivery truck, check the temperature range: the listing gives no range, so ask the seller how low and how hot it goes.

Before you buy

How much you really cook

616 sq in is stated, often the main grate and the upper rack added together. Measure your biggest cook (two briskets? six racks of ribs?) and lay it out in our grate area planner.

Power at the spot

It plugs into a regular outdoor outlet for the igniter, the fan and the auger. A grounded outlet close by beats a long extension cord.

Pellets and long cooks

No hopper size is stated. Keep a bag of pellets next to the grill for long cooks and check the level now and then.

Cleaning

Plan to vacuum the ash out of the fire pot every few cooks, and keep the grease tray clean: that is where most flare-ups start.
