If backyard barbecue is basically a religion in your house, this one’s worth a look: Sam’s Club has the Member’s Mark Pro Series 36” Pellet Smoker with Induction Burner, Smoke Tray & Cover on sale for $393.84, and Plus members get free shipping on top of that (free shipping applies to Plus Member orders of $50 or more).
What you’re getting
This isn’t just a pellet smoker — it’s a combo unit. Along with the 36-inch pellet smoker itself, the deal bundles in an induction burner (handy for searing, boiling, or holding a pot of beans while the meat smokes low and slow), a smoke tray, and a cover to protect the whole rig between cookouts. For anyone who’s been juggling a separate smoker and a side burner, having both in one purchase simplifies your outdoor cooking setup.
Who this is for
This deal is built for Southern families who take their smoked brisket, ribs, and pulled pork seriously — especially anyone upgrading from a basic charcoal smoker or a starter pellet grill and wanting more cooking versatility in one unit. It’s also a solid pick if you host regularly: between the smoker and the induction burner, you can handle the whole spread — meat, sides, and sauce — without running back and forth to the kitchen.
If you’re more of a weekend-only griller who just wants something simple for burgers and dogs, this is probably more smoker than you need. But for households that treat cookouts as a weekly event, the added functionality is the kind of thing you’ll actually use.
A few things to know before you buy
- Plus membership matters here. The free shipping tied to this price is a Sam’s Club Plus member perk, so factor that into your total cost if you’re a regular Club member weighing whether to upgrade.
- Timing is a little late for peak grilling season, but with fall cookout season and tailgates coming up, there’s still plenty of use ahead — especially in Southern metros where outdoor cooking weather sticks around well past summer.
- Always double-check current pricing and availability on Sam’s Club’s site before you head to the store or check out online, since deal pricing can shift.
Bottom line
A 36-inch pellet smoker with a built-in induction burner, smoke tray, and cover for under $400 is the kind of combo deal that’s worth grabbing if you’re already in the market for an upgrade — particularly if you’re a Sam’s Club Plus member who can lock in the free shipping. If backyard smoking is a regular thing at your place, this is worth adding to cart before it’s gone.
