Know before you buy
The DualFire 1200 features two separate cooking zones that operate independently. This allows you to smoke a brisket in one chamber at a low temperature while simultaneously searing steaks or baking sides in the other at a much higher heat.
Yes, the grill is specifically engineered for direct-flame grilling and can reach temperatures up to 700°F. This high-heat capability, combined with the included cast iron grates, allows you to achieve a professional-grade sear that is often difficult to replicate on standard pellet smokers.
The grill utilizes a Wi-Fi-enabled PID controller that monitors and adjusts the heat to maintain your set temperature within a 5°F variance. This ensures consistent results during long, low-and-slow smoking sessions without requiring constant manual adjustments.
With a massive 70-lb hopper capacity, you can handle extended cook times—such as overnight smokes or large gatherings—without needing to top off the fuel. The exact duration depends on your temperature settings, but it is designed to minimize the need for frequent refills.
The 304 stainless steel body is highly durable and resistant to rust, but it should be kept clean to maintain its finish. Regular cleaning of the interior, grease management system, and ash removal will keep the grill performing optimally and looking good for years.
The DualFire 1200 runs on a standard 110-volt AC GFCI outlet. Because it is an electronic ignition system, you will need to be within reach of a grounded outdoor power source to operate the controller and auger.
