Overview

The Charbroil 14101550 is a freestanding infrared smoker built from alloy steel, standing about 36 inches tall on a 23 by 23 inch footprint. At 22.68 pounds it's a full-size outdoor unit rather than a tabletop accessory.

Infrared cooking heats through radiant energy rather than direct flame contact, an approach Charbroil has used across several vertical smoker and roaster designs to cut flare-ups. The tall, square-footprint shape here matches that vertical cooking chamber style rather than a horizontal offset smoker.

Who it's for

Outdoor cooks with patio or yard space for a 36-inch-tall unit who want infrared heat rather than charcoal or wood smoke. Apartment balconies or tight patios may struggle with the footprint.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • Full-size 36 in tall cooking chamber
  • Alloy steel construction
  • Infrared heat reduces flare-ups
What to check first
  • Large 23 x 23 in footprint needs space
  • Heavier than tabletop smokers at 22.68 lb

Performance notes

Infrared heating warms food through radiant energy from the heating element rather than direct flame contact, which tends to reduce flare-ups compared to open-flame charcoal cooking. The 22.68 pound alloy steel body adds stability against wind on an open patio.
