Despite its streamlined build, the Reaper comes loaded with thoughtful, performance-driven components. It includes dual stubby intakes for precise airflow control, a round charcoal basket for efficient fuel management, and a baffle plate and heat shield to promote even temperature distribution throughout the cook chamber. The laser-cut CGS grate offers durability and consistent cooking results, while the single cooking level keeps your setup simple and efficient.
Convenience features like three casters for easy mobility, a flat lid handle, lid hook, and a well-designed exhaust round out the package. Whether you’re dialing in temps at a competition or cooking low and slow for friends and family, the Reaper delivers reliable performance with a clean, straightforward design that lets your barbecue skills shine.
