“We recently switched to the Yoder after being Traeger owners for almost 10years. This smoker is amazing. The quality of the craftsmanship definitely stands out as well as its ability reach and retain much higher temperatures. Just tried the open flame option and the burgers came out perfection! We won’t be going back to Traeger!”

“Strong well built construction, built to last materials, easily package for assembly. Wheels are smooth rolling and durable cooking tray, grease bucket is located for easy removal, the racks on front and side is very sturdy, the instructions are very easy to read and follow also. Box is marked very well to make unboxing a breeze. The only thing that I wish Yoder would have done was include the outside temp probe, I bought one from you all and had the tools to make the quick 10 minute installation. Wasn’t a big deal, just think for the money they could’ve went the final step. Overall though, it’s everything that it’s claimed to be, it will be a smoker to last my lifetime.”

“Completely impressed with the smoke flavor you get from this smoker. I have owned Traeger, 3 RecTecs, and Lone Star stick burner and none of those produced as good of flavor as the Yoder. I cooked on it every day for the first week and every cook was awesome. Great job Yoder.”

“I am thoroughly impressed so far. I "graduated" from a cheap, offset stick burner and I am now asking myself why I waited so long. I had gotten to where I could get pretty good results from the offset with brisket but only after many modifications and much trying and failing. The first full packer I cooked on the Yoder came out as good as I could ever ask for and probably better than any I had done before. I have been straining my brain trying to come up with ways to justify having a unit this expensive, it was a birthday present, because a brisket now and then just wasn't going to do that. I have been finding out that it is so versatile than there's not much I can't do on it if I want to. Could never say that for the offset as it was more or less OK for smoking, not nearly as good as the Yoder but OK if you worked at it hard enough. This thing is almost effortless and much better too. They done good...”

“My nephew turned me on to Yoder a couple of years ago. I'm pretty picky and don't part with my money easily!! This pellet grill is far superior to the so called " competition "”

“I just want to say that I look around four like a month for a smoker that was made in the USA. After a lot of research, I decided to go with the Yoder. I am blown away by the quality of how this smoker is made! You can tell it will last a very long time. I have smoked smoke ribs and a pork butt so far and I am very impressed! I recommend this smoker!”
