How does it work?
The NOMAD is a charcoal-fueled portable grill and smoker.
- Find a safe place to grill
Place your NOMAD on a secure/solid, non-combustible surface (on the ground, a stable table, or a metal stand). Never place your grill directly on a plastic table, or any composite surface, as they could melt or catch fire. - Light your charcoal
Use a chimney starter with 1-2 NOMAD Fire Starters in the base to help quickly light your coals. Wait until charcoal is burning all the way through and covered in ash (usually 30+ minutes). Use tongs to safely load your charcoal across the fins of your cookbox for maximum airflow. - Grilling mode for high heat/direct fire
open the grill up flat and utilize both sides for cooking (with optional second grate). Load 9-12 bricks of NOMAD 100% All-Natural Charcoal in each cookbox for ripping hot searing temps. - Smoker mode for low & slow offset cooking
For single-grate smoking with the hood closed, load 6-9 bricks of NOMAD Fire for a typical two-zone, offset cook. We recommend restricting your charcoal to a third of the cookbox (to the side opposite the thermometer), freeing up the other two-thirds to place your protein. There's no built-in deflector by design and so you have some flexibility there. We're fans of using a few pieces of our Smoking Wood Splits to act as a partition while also lending smoky flavor.
Is it worth it?
In short, absolutely.
Designed to do it all, NOMAD is an incredible portable grill. However, our customers often tell us how their NOMAD has displaced their stationary, at-home cooking devices because of its compact convenience, thermal efficiency, & all-purpose performance.
Thick-gauge aluminum shell casings are anodized — a chemical conversion process that protects the surface for ultimate durability & corrosion resistance. The diecast cookboxes on the interior are anodized as well (Mil-Spec, Type III), so there’s no paint to peel, chip or bubble.
Read through thousands of reviews from real NOMAD customers, professional cooks, & pitmasters who all agree that the build quality, performance & versatility of the NOMAD Grill is second to none.
Why did we make it?
Tired of the quasi-disposable, powder-coated, stamped steel & barely bolted cookers, we set out to build a better grill — one that’s over-engineered to last for generations. Built like a tank, NOMAD is a revolt against cut-rate kettles & camp cookers that rattle and fall apart after a season of use.
Who is it made for?
Matching strength & sturdiness with practical applications, NOMAD is built to enhance the outdoor cooking experience for a number of scenarios.
At the end of the day, NOMAD was built for those who need a grill that can keep up. Whether that is in the back yard for a weeknight smoke session or a companion grill for an epic road trip, to a sturdy portable that will make it through a weekend at deer camp and back, the NOMAD Grill & Smoker is the perfect portable provision for epic grilling at home or on-the-roam.
