Building your dream grill setup can be a bit pricey, but you can save some money if you head to Walmart first. The retailer is offering great grill deals on its best-selling gas grills this summer, and even its on-trend Blackstone flat-top grills. If you’re looking for a pellet grill or smoker, you’re in luck—one of the store’s most popular models is more than $160 off for a limited time.
The KingChii 456 sq. in. Wood Pellet Smoker & Grill is on sale for $235 at Walmart, which is 41% off its regular price of $400. This easy-to-use wood pellet smoker is a best-seller in its category and has more than 3,000 five-star ratings from shoppers who praise its versatility and user-friendly design. Plus, while many grills come with a shipping fee, this one ships with free shipping.

The KingChii Wood Pellet Smoker & Grill burns wood pellets, an all-natural fuel source that gives food a mouth-watering wood smoke flavor. Steaks, veggies, chicken, sausages, you name it—this grill can cook it all. It has a spacious 341 square inches of main grilling space, and above that, a 115-square-inch rack serves as a warming station. Electronic ignition makes it easy to start (no need to fumble with matches or a lighter), and with a temperature range of 180 to 420 degrees, you can cook low and slow or sear on high. The 11-pound pellet hopper and automatic feed system take the guesswork out of refueling—the KingChii automatically adjusts the pellet flow to maintain optimum smoke levels and your temperature setting. And when you’re done cooking, dual wheels make it easy to stow in a garage or storage area.
Reviewers say this pellet grill is easy to use and produces incredible food. “I love this grill,” one customer said. “I’ve never had a pellet grill before and was a little worried it would be complicated. It’s super easy.” Another customer agreed, saying, “My husband is a novice smoker and everything he does on this little smoker is absolutely amazing!”

Many other shoppers agreed; delicious food was a common theme in the comments section. “The food comes out juicy and tender,” one shopper noted. “This grill is amazing,” another said, adding, “the food cooked evenly and tasted great.”
At $235, the KingChii Wood Pellet Smoker & Grill is an ideal entry point to wood-fired grilling (and a capable tool for expert grillers, too). But these machines sell out quickly, so act fast before this deal goes up in smoke.
