MAK Grills

We manufacture exceptional pellet smokers. When the economy took a turn in 2008, we were faced with a choice: innovate or downsize. It was no choice at all—we needed to create a product in order to save jobs. As a family of lifelong backyard BBQers with over 50 years of precision sheet metal fabrication experience, pellet grills were a natural choice. We loved the precision control and genuine smo

ke flavor you can only get with a pellet grill but found that pellet grills weren’t without their shortcomings. They traditionally had problems reaching high temperatures and holding set temperatures. Unprotected steel firepots welded into the grill would deteriorate over time and fail, causing the whole grill to be replaced. Cleaning out the firepot was also more difficult. We spent a year and a half asking pellet grill owners what their ideal outdoor cooking machine looked like and listening to what they said. Then we went to work building it for them. The first generation of MAK Grills was revolutionary. MAK Grills were the first to contain a direct heating system, the Flamezone. Our controller was the first one advanced enough to maintain and recover temperatures quickly and accurately. The first removable 304 stainless steel firepot made cleaning a breeze and made failures improbable and not likely to result in the replacement of your entire grill. Over the years we’ve continued to work closely with our customers to innovate even further. We were the first company with a Wi-Fi capable controller, the first to use a ceramic igniter, and the first to introduce a roaming thermocouple. These advances and others have earned MAK Grills several Vesta awards for quality and innovation. We continue to follow our customers’ lead in terms of innovation, which has led us to adopt the use of industrial grade K-Style meat probes. MAK Grills stands out as a manufacturer that cares about building long-lasting, innovative, American made products. We’ve designed our grills to exceed your expectations and deliver an unparalleled outdoor cooking experience. The name MAK is an acronym for Matt, Alex, and Kal, our children. We pride ourselves on our ability to sustain American manufacturing and provide jobs that pay a fair wage. We stand by our products and provide our customers with world class service.
