How to choose the right Grease Box for your grill

A short guide to picking the correct Grease Box model for your wood pellet grill, based on where your grill's grease spout is located.

The Grease Box comes in a few models. The right one for you depends mostly on where the grease leaves your grill. Here is how to figure it out.

Step 1: find your grease spout

Look under the barrel of your grill for the point where grease drains out. It is usually one of these:

  • Side spout. The grease exits from the side of the barrel into a bucket that hangs on the side or leg.
  • Bottom / under-grill spout. The grease drains straight down through a hole in the bottom of the barrel.

Step 2: match the model

  • If your grease exits from the side, you want a side-mount model.
  • If your grease drains from the bottom, you want an under-grill model.
  • Some grill brands (for example, certain Green Mountain models) use a different fitting and have their own matching model.

Step 3: confirm compatibility

Rather than guessing, use the Find My Grill tool. Pick your grill's brand and model and it will tell you exactly which Grease Box fits, plus whether you need any adapter.

A note on short or narrow spouts

If your grill has a compact, short, or removable grease spout, you may need an adapter for a snug fit. The compatibility tool flags this for you so you can add the right adapter to your order.

When you know your model, head to the shop to order.
