Indoor Searing Grill with Hot/Cold Smoke Infuser

Yes, the grill features a vented hood designed to control smoke output. While it is built for indoor use, we recommend using it near a kitchen vent or window, especially when using the smoke infusion function, to ensure proper ventilation.

The appliance uses a dedicated smoke box to burn wood chips. For hot smoking, the grill plate heats up while the smoke infuses the food; for cold smoking, you can infuse flavor without activating the high-heat grilling elements, which is ideal for delicate items like cheese or nuts.

The 116-square-inch cooking surface features a standard nonstick coating designed for easy food release. To maintain the longevity of the coating, avoid using metal utensils and stick to silicone or wood tools.

Cleanup is straightforward because the grill plate, drip tray, and hood are dishwasher-safe. You will need to empty the wood chip box after each use, but the nonstick surface wipes down easily.

The 116-square-inch surface is sized for about six servings. It works well for a standard family dinner, though it may be tight if you are grilling larger cuts of meat or bulky vegetables all at once.

You can use standard wood chips designed for smoking. Just ensure they are small enough to fit into the smoke box provided with the unit.
