Why Yoder Smokers? It’s the food.

Ask any Yoder Smokers owner what the best thing about their grill is, and they’ll tell you, it’s the food. There are scientific explanations behind why food cooked on Yoder Smokers pellet grills turns out more delicious, more often. Do you need to know them? Not really. But indulge us while we nerd out for just a moment:

• Temperature Stability – Industry-leading tech and construction prevent severe temperature fluctuations in the YS640s, providing a consistent cooking environment.
• Superior Airflow – The key to both a quality fire and evenly cooked food, the exceptional airflow from one end of the YS640s to the other infuses the food with rich flavor. 
• Precision Monitoring – Dual food probes deliver precise temperature readings to the grill’s display panel and your mobile device, so you know exactly when your food is done without needing to open the grill lid to check.

Cook Any Style, Across the Temperature Spectrum (Smoke-Sear, 150º-600º F)

Truly a do-it-all grill, the YS640s can smoke, bake, and roast from its standard setup, with oven-style baking possible when utilizing the included 2-piece second shelf. Plus, with the quick and easy removal of a small access door, you can cook over direct flame at higher temps for a grilling experience that combines the convenience of gas grilling with the flavor-rich results of cooking over wood or charcoal.

Additionally, some optional accessories allow you to expand your cooking even further:

• Yoder Smokers Wood-Fired Oven – An insert that rivals the best stand-alone wood-fired ovens on the market, the Yoder Smokers Wood-Fired Oven efficiently cooks everything from blistered, pillowy Neapolitan pizzas to crispy wings to roasted vegetables.
• GrillGrate Set for Yoder Smokers YS640s – Anodized aluminum GrillGrates, which quickly reach temperatures above 650º F, enhance your grill’s searing capabilities and reduce flare-ups almost completely, producing steakhouse-quality grill marks, textured crusts, and intense caramelization.
• Yoder Smokers Pellet Grill Rotisserie Kit – Chickens, turkeys, and prime ribs all develop a textured outside and tender inside with the self-basting magic of rotisserie cooking. Cook low and slow at 275–350°F, or move over direct fire for higher heat and more crust. (New grills are pre-drilled for a rotisserie.)

Enhanced Mobility Features

“Love our new Yoder! Easy to move around the patio on the competition cart, convenient storage for shelves, grates, smoke tubes when not in use.” – Scott, Verified Customer,

Oversized, lockable, and ultra-maneuverable pneumatic wheels and casters ensure your grill rolls smoothly from spot to spot and stays rock-steady when cooking. It can handle loading ramps and uneven ground with ease and won’t budge once the pedal locks are engaged. Roll with confidence and rest assured your grill will hold steady over the long haul.

• Robust 8” pneumatic tires, with 10” tires available as an optional upgrade. 
• When unlocked, the caster system makes the grill easy to maneuver around the yard, up and down ramps, and into tight spaces.
• Heavy-duty tie-down rings simplify securing the grill for transport

WiFi-Control from Anywhere

The Yoder Smokers YS640s features Yoder Smokers’ next-generation Adaptive Control System. It connects to both Bluetooth devices and your home Wi-Fi network via the FireBoard app on mobile devices. Once connected, you can remotely control your grill’s temperature, monitor food with the two included temperature probes, change cooking programs to hold your grill at a set temperature once your food is done, and more—all from your phone.

• User-friendly mobile app is easy to set up and use
• Built-in temperature probes let you track food doneness and cook with confidence
• Monitor and adjust grill temperature on your mobile device

Ease of Use

“I am new to smoking and went all in. I do not regret it. I highly recommend this smoker.” – Lisa, Verified Customer,

While the YS640s is technologically advanced, it’s also incredibly easy to use. To start it, simply load the pellet hopper, power on the grill, fire it up with the simple push of a button, and set it to your desired cooking temperature. The grill will automatically run its ignition program and should reach the desired cooking temperature within 10-20 minutes. 

We mean it when we say “hands-free” grilling with no babysitting involved. There’s no need to open the lid for temperature checks, which speeds up cooking and frees you up for other activities. You can trust that the YS640s is completing the task at hand, but for added peace of mind, simply check in via the Fireboard app to ensure your cook is proceeding as planned.

• Easy cleanup – simply brush the grates while they are still warm to remove grease and debris.
• Once the grill has cooled, dump any ash from the burn pot and wipe down the grill’s exterior. 
• When necessary, deep cleaning your Yoder Smokers Pellet Grill will keep it running and looking fantastic.

Fast Ignition, Efficient Burn, and Reliable Performance

The high-capacity hopper holds a 20-pound bag of pellets and can run for approximately 10+ hours at 225°F. The high-airflow burn grate improves efficiency and prevents clogging by carrying ash away from the burn pot. The ceramic ignition system lasts five times longer than conventional contact igniters, heats up twice as fast, and generates 100% more heat using an induction lighting system that helps prevent failed ignitions.

• Built around a powerful microprocessor, the ACS board accounts for multiple input variables to keep your grill’s temperature consistent. It is intelligent enough to respond to drastic temperature shifts caused by opening the grill door, adding cold meat to the grill, weather fluctuations, or changes in pellet burn rates when switching pellet types mid-cook.
• Pellets last longer thanks to a more stable cooking environment inside the grill.

Temperature Control and Airflow that Make a Difference

Both the physical control panel and the mobile app allow you to adjust the temperature of the YS640s in 5°F increments. The controller is constantly monitoring the grill’s temperature and adjusts the pellet feed to maintain the target temperature with ±5 °F accuracy. And the grill’s consistent left-to-right airflow helps prevent temperature swings and soot buildup, improving performance and delivering delicious results.

• Ball-bearing fans enhance grill performance in cold weather. 
• An optional thermal jacket accessory helps retain heat and improve fuel efficiency in below-freezing temperatures.

1,070 Square Inches of True Cooking Freedom

“It is massive on the inside and has easily fit a brisket, two pork shoulders, and a tray of mac & cheese. Plus, knowing that I can easily switch it to direct grilling and grill up some hamburgers… makes this a true workhorse.” – Raymond, Verified Customer,

With 1,070 square inches of total cooking space (640 square inches on the primary grate + 430 square inches on the upper shelf), the YS640s on the competition cart is the perfect size for a large family meal or a gathering with numerous friends. The dual-level cooking area opens the door to multi-zone cooking, allowing you to sear meat over the firebox while baking a side dish on the modular 2-piece upper shelf. Offering flexibility to cook nearly anything an oven can handle — with added flavor — the YS640s can accommodate:

• 8-10 Racks of ribs at one time.
• 6-8 Pork shoulders at one time.
• 3-4 Packer briskets at one time.

Quick-Start Tips & Best Practices

The YS640s startup process is a breeze. Simply load up the pellet hopper, power up the grill, and hit the “START” button. The auger will immediately begin to move pellets into the burn pot. And finally, the ceramic igniter will power on to initiate the induction heat combustion process.

Visible flames will appear within four minutes, while the fans and auger work together to fuel the fire and help bring the grill up to its target temperature. For best results:

• Clean the burn pot of any ash or debris after each use so that it is ready for the next cook
• Allow the grill to reach the desired temperature before putting food on to cook. Take weather conditions into consideration, as this might take longer when temperatures are low.
