Know before you buy
Yes. The PKGO features a 4-point vent system that allows you to precisely control airflow, making it easy to set up for either direct high-heat grilling or indirect low-temperature smoking.
The grill comes with a dedicated stand that provides a stable, elevated base. While it is designed for tabletop use, ensure your surface is heat-resistant and level before cooking.
The grill is built from thick, cast aluminum, which is highly resistant to rust and designed to withstand years of outdoor use. Unlike thin steel grills, this material retains heat exceptionally well.
The 17-inch cooking surface provides enough room for a standard charcoal setup. For longer smoking sessions, you can easily manage fuel levels through the vents or by lifting the lid to add more briquettes.
The cast aluminum body is easy to wipe down, and the ash management system allows you to clear out debris quickly. Because the grill is portable, you can easily dump the ash once the coals have fully cooled.
