Magnum P.I.G. Hot or Cold Smoke Generator | Works w/Any Outside BBQ Grill | Electric Smoker Pellet Accessory | Add Your Favorite Blend of Wood Chunks or Chips to Customize Flavor Profile

Finally, I can get great smoke in my Weber Genesis gas grill. The grill is great, but every way I tried before to get decent smoke failed. The Big Kahuna solved that problem. Now I can get an hour or so of smoke from chips and chunks while cooking meats or I can leave the burners all off and cold smoke using just the Big Kahuna. In other words, it makes the smoke independent from the grill burners. You can use either heat or smoke or both.This opens up a whole new set of possibilities. Now I can even slow-cook ribs for hours and get lots of smoke flavor. Previously, to get smoke it required at least one of the burners to be on strongly and that is too much heat for something like ribs. Problem solved!The air pump works well as a boost to getting the smoke started and to control the burn inside the Big Kahuna.You can add more wood while smoking but you may want a pliers to take off the top as the knob on the top can get too hot to handle.Keep the knob that locks the bottom in place tight or the bottom and sparks could fall to the ground. I would not use this device over flammable surfaces without some protection and continual monitoring. Eventually I will fasten a metal drip pan close under the smoker to catch anything that falls and that should make it safer.This installed very easily in the Genesis by drilling a 1 1/8" hole in the aluminum back of the grill between two of the flavor bars near the center. It is at a very slight angle, but that is no problem.

The media could not be loaded. I have been through three different pellet, smokers continuously, upgrading trying to get more smoke flavor like an offset. Still no luck after spending thousands and thousands of dollars. I’ve also tried several different smoke tubes and trays .. nothing seems to work at all. I recently installed the smoke daddy smoke generator. And it is literally a godsend for smoking on a pellet grill. Extremely easy to use and install. Unlimited amount of smoke and smoke flavor. This will turn in a pellet grill into a real smoker. I thought it was a little pricey at first. But now that it’s installed and I’ve used it on several cooks, it is worth every penny and more! I will never own a Grille again without having one of these installed. Works flawless, and even better than I could’ve ever hoped for. A+++++

Easy to install, well built, and great smoke volume. I would upgrade to the max PIG model if I could do it over again. The chips I tried burn really fast. I'm getting about 30 minutes just as is with the air pump set to a medium. I'll have to play with my setup a little. This is definitely an upgrade, I'll do a video when I use it again.I know I'm being a little bit of a perfectionist here. I'm using an Ironwood 885 and I put it in opposite of the fan (which it does say to avoid). But I'm planning on installing a section of brass pipe so it exhausts next to the pot. I might be dealing with some air siphoning through the drip chute, causing excessive burn. I'd also like to baffle the rear exhaust on it as the Traeger's airflow is a little too good sometimes.

So far seems to work good. The knob on the top got way hotter than I expected and burnt myself when talking the lid off to add more wood but I probably should have expected it looking back.

I have used this smoke generator with my Pit Boss 850 for almost a month now with 6 cooks topping 8+ hours. I use high quality pellets that help with a better smokey flavor but this smoke generator takes it to a new level of smokiness. Not the bitter smoke flavor from a smoking tube but that of a clean smoke from unprocessed wood.It is a well build product. Easy to install and use (once you figure out how to properly start it up). Basic clean-up is quick. It needs a deeper cleaning after 3-4 long cooks. I love that most of it is made in the United States of America. Unfortunately some of the smaller parts like the bottom cap for example are made in China.After a little trial and error and online videos I learned when you want to pair this generator with a pellet smoker just run it for 30 - 45 minutes before you start to get clean smoke. I just started the smoke generator first then pre-heating my smoker.One more tip. Instructions say you should check the wood chips / chunks every 2 to 2 1/2 hours. But at the beginning of a smoke check it after an hour. Sometimes it burns through a lot of wood at the very beginning as it settles in. For me after the second wood refill it was going 3+ hours before needing for wood.

Would give this product 10 stars if I could. I’ve smoked meats for years with a “real” custom built refrigerator smoker built in Texas. My wife bought me a Traeger as a gift. I used it twice and was so thoroughly disgusted with the lack of smoke volume and flavor, I put it away in my garage and haven’t used it for 3 years - until today. I happened to stumble across the Smoke Daddy on Amazon. Did my research and it seemed to make sense and may give my Traeger a shot at actually being more than just a convenience grill. I installed it today and smoked a couple of whole chickens. The chickens came out perfectly. With the Smoke Daddy, I had continuous smoke - real smoke and flavor, not that pellet smoke where you think the meat may be smoked but you’re not sure. The Smoke Daddy is a total game changer. With it I get the convenience of thermostatically controlled temp and GREAT smoke flavor. I highly recommend.

Let me start by saying I've used this for a couple of years so it isn't terrible. The biggest problems I have is it doesn't provide smoke for very long so you have to keep refilling it. The second issue is partly my own making. Since I was adapting this to an existing grill in an outdoor kitchen, I had to add 12" of galvanized pipe between the smoker and the grill. This gets plugged with creosote in about 60 minutes so I have to keep cleaning it. Also, creosote builds up on all the components which is hard to clean. Again, I continue to use it because it isn't terrible, but it is hard to use.

Great product , bought it for my pellet grill , it is now a pellet smoker . Works better than I expected !!!
