The ALL NEW Camp Chef Woodwind Pro is the ULTIMATE PELLET GRILL! There is nothing else on the pellet grill market that can inherently achieve these smoke levels like this! Camp Chef pellet grills in general have always been on great quality, but they took things to the next level on this new offering!
The Woodwind Pro comes in two different variations: The Camp Chef Woodwind Pro 36 and Camp Chef Woodwind Pro 24. They come in respectively at $1500 and $1200, which is a $300 price increase from the standard Camp Chef Woodwind Wifi models of the same size.
The price really does justify what you are getting with these new pellet smokers! You're getting a stainless steel body, smoke box, 4 caster wheels, a very sturdy grill, and one heck of a smoker! This thing truly achieves results closer to an Offset smoker better than any other pellet grill on the market.

If you like these smokers, then you may be interested in this NEW one! Check out my video: ruclips.net/video/8ub7e3IxIwo/видео.html
If they could add the smoke box to the Apex it would be the ultimate do everything grill!!
My father has the apex and he absolutely loves it. I just purchased the woodwind 36 pro with Side kick and with the new smoke box it hands down produces more smoke than any other pellet unit I've cooked on. I've always loved the offset stick burners but the woodwind pro is the closest thing to a offset. I love my woodwind pro. You won't be disappointed with either one of these units and yes they are worth every penny.
I couldn't have said it better!
My WW Pro 36 came and and it did some ribs, the smoke flavor took it up to another level. Love having more control.
This is the comparison everyone has been looking for. Nicely done!
Thanks man!
Have you ever seen cooked on the Pit Boss Pro 1600 Elite? If so, what are your thoughts? I have it and love it. Leaps and bounds better than any other PB. You should do a video comparing all the pellet grills in the $1100-$1700 range. Love your videos
Those grills are insane! I don’t regret getting the SG30, but I will have a 36” pro one day.
I wonder how that campchef woodwind pro compares to the lonestar grills pellet smoker. That would be an awesome test
I’d love to do that comparison, but I’ve yet to meet someone locally that has one! Anyone out there from NE Ohio with the @lonestargrillz pellet grill?
@@AndersonsSmokeShow NE Ohio, nice! I'm in Columbus! 😁
I agree WW Pro, just wish they put a stainless lid on it.
The prototype had the materials swapped. Black body, stainless lid…. But I personally like this one better since it eliminates the potential paint issues in the body
I have the new Lonestargrillz pellet grill, and granted it way more expensive, but it is by far the closest to an offset you can get without having to add wood chunks at all…..that being said I will be getting the pro and apex for my collection!!!
The only place I have to put a grill gazebo was behind the garage. Camp Chef really made me look elsewhere for a new grill with the rear exhaust set up. These grills now have to be 10 ft or more away from the garage. Even though I have an exhaust hood and heat shields above and behind my current grill, I still can't have one without a chimney. Maybe it's time to get a house with a bigger yard.
The Woodwind Pro is definitely appealing. Actually, they both are😂 Not enough room on my little patio.
Yeah these are tanks! Like literal tanks lol. I’ve actually reached the max that my garage can take… 🤣
you got the big boyz i love my Apex 24-woodwind pro 24 i dumped my other pellets. The light in my apex is awesome for my brisket cooks, i was disappointed no light with the pro
You could put wood chips in a smoke box inside the apex to enhance the smoke flavour?
I wish the Pro came with a Pro+ version that comes with the lights and pellet sensor...
Great comparison! Love your videos! To bad not one of you popular RUclipsr's has gotten ahold of a Lifetime Gas Grill and Wood Pellet Smoker Combo. Wife just surprised me with one a few weeks ago (tho wasn't on my radar and not my first choice) It's build like a tank and at $1300 much more affordable than the APEx
On the woodwind pro 36 do you find any issues with the burn pot not centered vs the 24 model? Also, is the pellet usage on the 36 model about 33% more on a typical cook compared to the 24? I've had a normal woodwind 24 for 4 years and looking to upgrade but wondering if the 36 is worth it.
Woodwind Pro 36 and FTG600.... Best combo on the market!
100%!!
Be awesome if they could add an auto-mister to time out spraying a mist of acv, apple juice, mop mixture etc., so you could literally set it and forget it.
Great video! I get this question all the time!
All the time man! I started copying and pasting my responses lol
Killer comparison video man! Thanks for sharing!
I wish they had a smaller apex or the ability to piece meal it.
I'm holding out for a gas option on the woodland pro. That would make it perfect for me with side griddle. The apex is just too big.
Excellent review! Keep up the great job of educating others.
Thanks John!
I cook for four and sometimes six people. Shaft size CC Pro do you recommend?
Great video thanks for your hard work. I do have a question. I’ve had other pellet grills and I have never liked the flying ash that gets on the meat. Does the WW pro solve that problem?
I personally haven’t had any issues with it.
Would a Apex with a smoke tube filled with wood chips or pellets for extra smoke be anywhere near the woodwind pro in quality?
I like the idea of the gas grill but I'm also liking the smoke box of the woodwind pro.
Even with a smoke tube it’s not up to par with the Smoke box on the WWPro.
I love my RecTeq 1250, but I wish I had that wood smoke option like the Pro.
Those RT’s are nice! But I’d agree that the smoke box is a game changer!
Had been looking at getting a RT but after checking out these new camp chef grills they're looking good. Seems like there's a lot of good options out there most manufacturers are stepping up.their products.
This is an exciting time for grills and smokers! The recent advancements will only push everyone to be better!
Any experience adding a smoke tube or maze in the apex? Would that come closer to the smoke for the woodwind pro?
It’ll get closer to the woodwind pro, but pellets aren’t quite the same as a piece of hard wood or charcoal. I will say that the smoke tubes DO make a difference though
Those tubes are nowhere near the type of smoke you get with the smoke box. Maybe if you put 6 of them in there it'll be close.
On the apex, how seamless is the transition from pellet grill to gas grill. If I want to reverse sear is it as simple as smoke it, then with the flip of a switch I turn off the smoker function and turn on the gas grill flame? Or is there a cleanout process to move from one function to another?
You can simply put the smoker function into shutdown mode then fire up the gas immediately
I was set on keeping my current setup until seeing all of the WW Pro videos start showing up recently. Now I'm heavily looking at it. I'm interested in your thoughts between the WW Pro and the Masterbuilt Gravity 800 though. They both seem to be great.
From what I can tell, the Masterbuilt 1050 cooks great food but is made with low grade materials while the Woodwind Pro is substantially higher quality, lots of stainless steel and an insulated hood. I would like to see other opinions.
Get a 24in WW Pro *and* a 24in Apex w/ Propane kit!
I want more smoke so going with the CCWWPro36…est delivery 20 Oct 22😆 Ty for the comparison 👍
You are really only getting the better smoke on the woodwind because you can use the wood chunk box along with your pellets correct ? This stinks because I can only get one, and was thinking the apex. I'm going to replace my pit boss pro series 860.
Yeah the smoke box adds an extra dimension! The pellet function is the same on the apex and woodwind pro
@@AndersonsSmokeShow You could add an after market smoke box, couldn't you? Other than that, is there anything else you like better than Apex on WW Pro?
How about the APEX with the charcoal slider? now that's what I need
That would be cool!
Andrew, have you compared the CampChef Pro to the Smokefire Stealth, by chance?
I wish I had the Stealth to compare it to!
How much does the apex actually smoke i have a bfg and it does not smoke does it actually smoke i just dont want go buy another big smoker that does not smoke every video i see there is know visible smoke
It smokes, but with most pellet grills you are going to get a thin blue mild smoke. If you want a better smoke experience with the pellet grill form, then I'd look at the Woodwind Pro.
I love both of them!!!!! I will probably have both!
Not a bad problem to have 🤣
Thanks for another great video. Wish I could afford a woodwind pro. It looks to be a great smoker being disabled I can't.
Hopefully I can run another giveaway that’ll give you an opportunity to win one!
that would be a blessing if you did and I was the winner. I enjoy watching your channel. Thank you for your videos.
Where can I get a cutting board like the one in Utah??
There’s a link on the description for 26in cutting board
As always brother great video 💯👍
Thanks man!
Awesome video, very informative
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
Which one has an easier clean up?
Woodwind pro since you can take off the grease tray in one shot vs the 6 on the apex
Thanks! Just used your link and pulled the trigger on WW Pro. Looking forward to diving in!
Do you have the new xxl pro? Im between ww pro or xxl pro
It’ll be delivered tomorrow! I plan on making an overview video very very soon!
@@AndersonsSmokeShow nice.
I wish the woodwind had stainless in the main grate instead of just the 2nd shelf. I also with it had a ceramic igniter because changing igniters is for the birds. Shame.
I think they should have upgraded grates for all their smokers! Even if it’s something that you have to purchase separately
@@AndersonsSmokeShow Man I wish you could get the Kando Rival in for review. Love everything about the design and it’s the only pellet smoker with the fire pot so far beneath the cooking grates. If they figure out a way to incorporate what the woodwind pro is doing on that smoker being that there’s a door with access to fire pot it would be perfect.
How come you cooked these ribs for 2 hours and didn't check them with a toothpick and you put the sauce on while sitting on the cookie sheet but in your other video you didn't do any of that? The other video you cooked them for an hour and forty minutes and then checked them with a toothpick and put the sauce on when not on the cookie sheet
You commented on a grill video so I’m just guessing at what you are talking about. I have an older video without the toothpick which is what I assume you are talking about. I re did it a few years later to add some tips
How do you get ahold of Camp Chef customer service? Nobody answers the phone. Nobody responds to the chatbot. Nobody replies to the customer service email address.😡
I had to hold for 45 minutes to get a hold of someone. Then I got disconnected, but they called right back so that was nice.
You're a day late with this video or else I would have used your link.. I went with the WW pro...
Hey no worries! Welcome to the Camp Chef family!
These grills can do it all, except burn sticks or charcoal.
The Woodwind Pro can burn sticks and charcoal.
@@cadehuskinson108 I stand corrected, would have been nice to hear about those abilities since I don't believe in gas.
Oh the pain I feel right now! The queen gave me the nod so I can up grade my grill.
…. Maybe I can sell a kidney and buy both, I’ll lose sleep over this one.
Oh boy!!!
All the Camp Chef pellet smokers are overpriced ✌🏼🇺🇸
How much should they cost?
Get yourself a wsm.
I have a gateway drum. No need for a wsm
Apex pro. Problem solved
Million dollar idea right there!
I’m not going to bite you but you are simply misinformed and wrong. The Lonestar grillz pellet grill is as close to offset flavor you can get in a pellet grill.
Pellets simply cannot reproduce the same smoke as a piece of hardwood. Doesn’t matter what grill it’s in.
Nice review! We’re still waiting for your review on the new traeger ironwood XL and timberline grills
You’ll definitely see the Timberline XL on the channel here in the next month or so. Not sure if I’ll be able to get my hand on the Ironwood XL, but I’ll try
@@AndersonsSmokeShow nice nice, we really enjoy your reviews, looking forward to it
Grills and smokers are inherently in backyards, all the wheels for grills and smokers should be large wheels for running around on grass and rock
Air tires and self-propelled like a lawn mower
