Our Commitment to You:
At Smoke Daddy Inc. we are committed to bring you the best products at an affordable price. We have considered expanding into large box stores but have decided that it is more important to avoid all the mark ups that go along with that approach. Also, that would do away with so much of the personalized support and relationships we enjoy developing with our customers. Our unwavering dedication to quality means we stand firmly behind every product we offer, as well as providing personalized support whenever you need it. We cherish the insights gained from interacting with our customers, we are always eager to learn from your experiences and share our expertise.
Since our inception in October 2009, Smoke Daddy Inc. has thrived on a foundation of integrity and personalized service. Unlike larger retailers, we prioritize direct relationships with our customers, offering unparalleled support and guidance. From troubleshooting technical issues to sharing creative recipes. We’re here every step of the way.
Our Journey
What began as a humble garage project with my grandsons has blossomed into a successful business. With a blend of innovation and determination, we have transformed a hobby into a livelihood for me and my family. Led by Me, Dennis, and my wife, Sarah, with the support of our dedicated team members like our nephew, Dan, and invaluable staff members like Danielle, Dallas, and our late friend Gary. Smoke Daddy Inc has become a beacon of quality in the smoking industry.
Our daughter, Nancy, works for a law firm full time, but finds time to help us. She and her husband, Joe, have two boys who are “works in progress” for the future of Smoke Daddy, Inc. They enjoy helping when they are not in school and are learning a little about business. Who knows, maybe someday they’ll run the place!
Looking To The Future
As we continue to grow, we remain rooted in our grassroots approach, eschewing mass-market tactics in favor of genuine connections. Together, with our dedicated staff, we’re shaping the future of outdoor cooking, one satisfied customer at a time.

It is good to know there are good people building great products right here in the USA. ps; If you haven't cleaned the colleted grease off the bottom for a while be careful when using the HIGH setting. They gave me a good tip as well to use a large pan on the bottom shelf to catch the grease. Thanks again Dan and Danielle and everyone at Smoke Daddy Inc. SmokinHot Dave

Purchased a pellet pro from Smoke Daddy a few years back. Today on 4th of July, I had an issue with my smoker throwing my breaker when I turned it... read more on. Called Smoke Daddy and unfortunately they were closed because it is a Saturday and also a holiday. Their recording said press 0 for a bbq emergency so I did and much to my surprise Dennis answered the phone. I explained my issue and Dennis had a pretty good idea of what the issue was and walked me through how to fix it so I could bbq for the weekend. I rarely see the customer service like this from companies. Smoke Daddy is a top notch company and the people that run this place are second to none. The product is also great as I have had no issues with my pellet pro until recently. I highly recommend doing business with this company and I never give reviews unless it’s exceptional service. You can’t go wrong with the people at Smoke Daddy.
let me tell you about Dennis and Dan and their tenacity and desire to ensure Smoke Daddy customers have the best care in the world. I had a system... read more that kept blowing fuses. They worked with me to figure out the issue and continued supplying part and resources to resolve the issue. They were professional and courteous and knowledgeable and some of the very best help I have ever had. Call the support line, it'll ring Dennis' cell after hours and he will pick up. I have nothing but good things to say about Smoke Daddy. It will be hard to be satisfied with the next organization I need to use support with, since Smoke Daddy has set the expectation of what support should be.
