Our products are expertly engineered and built to last. What you do with them is meant to be shared. From backyards to block parties to BBQ competitions — we believe good food brings people together. Knack grills and smokers let you embrace a slow-cooked life with friends and family, for this generation and beyond.
Knack Competition Grills and Smokers was founded by an engineer and veteran of the commercial meat processing industry. He is also a man of faith. And Christian principles guide everything we do.
We harness the physics and principles of God’s creation to masterfully engineer barbeque equipment built on science for maximum performance.
Knack smokers and grills are ruggedized for the backyard battlefield. Engineered to withstand Midwest extremes — subzero winters, spring thunderstorms, and the blazing summer heat — these products are built to ensure year-round performance.
Products inspired by Iowa’s farming legacy and meat production dominance, Knack is building smokers and grills that honor our regional roots as a beef- and pork-producing powerhouse with a focus on products that will continue to last for generations to come.
Trends will change and looks will fade. We harness the physics and principles of God’s creation to masterfully engineer barbecue equipment built on science for maximum performance.
In our neck of the woods, we care for our communities. This means our fascination with smoking and grilling isn’t done in isolation.
