A cooking device may include a cooking chamber with a first gas-powered heat source, such as a gas grill, disposed in the cooking chamber. The cooking chamber may also include a receptacle, such as a drawer, that is sized and configured to receive a solid fuel, which may be used to generate smoke. The drawer movable between a closed position in which the drawer and solid fuel are disposed inside the cooking chamber and an open position in which the drawer is at least partially removed from the cooking chamber. A second or secondary gas-powered heat source may reheat, reburn, and/or recombust the smoke from the solid fuel heat source to create smoke with different characteristics. The second gas-powered heat source and at least a portion of the drawer may be disposed in a vertically stacked configuration.

An indoor smoker includes a smoking chamber positioned within a cabinet and a smoke generating assembly configured for selectively smoldering combustible material to create a flow of smoke. A controller is in operative communication with the smoke generating assembly and is configured to receive a command to perform a smoking process at a smoke duty cycle, wherein the smoke duty cycle corresponds to a time relationship between an ON state and an OFF state of the smoke generating assembly, where the controller operates the smoke generating assembly to perform the smoking process utilizing the smoke duty cycle.

A cooking apparatus is disclosed that allows for independent and simultaneous cooking styles at different temperatures. The cooking apparatus comprises a lower enclosure comprising a cooking chamber; and an upper portion arranged above the lower enclosure and comprising a grilling unit. The grilling unit comprises a base that is coupled to an upper region of the lower enclosure; an upper heat source region positioned within the base; and a grilling surface arranged above the upper heat source region. The base of the upper portion comprises an overhang that extends around a circumference or perimeter of the upper region of the lower enclosure, and the overhang comprises one or more air vents distributed along the overhang for providing airflow to the upper heat source region. The grilling unit and the cooking chamber are operable independently and simultaneously.
