Pitmaker MVP Tailgater BBQ Grill Review
The MVP Tailgater BBQ Grill has a 1/8″ plate steel body and 14 gauge stainless steel lid. Two slide out shelves provide 713 square inches of cooking surface. The relatively large cook chamber has plenty of headroom for big cuts, like pork shoulders. A slide out, removable ash pan/coal grate facilitates clean up and easy compliance with sports venues that require tailgaters to dump ashes before leaving the grill.
The removable truck hitch clears enough room to drop the tailgate of most trucks for use as a table. Lid and coal grate tray are lockable for transport. An optional floor stand is available.
Sales are direct.

Pitmaker
Pitmaker is a Houston area metal fabricator known for manufacturing colorful, large capacity, heavy duty cabinet smokers and rectangular offset pits for competition, tailgating and serious BBQ. We have seen several trailer mounted Pitmaker smoker/grill combo setups and they are very impressive, extremely well designed and built.
They also have two backyard charcoal/wood grills and a tailgater model. These cookers are based on Pitmaker’s large “Vault” cabinet smoker designs with a firebox on the bottom and cook chamber with shelves on top. All are heavy duty steel construction. We haven’t heard much about the residential Pitmaker grills, but their large capacity smokers have an excellent reputation and it’s a good bet they wouldn’t put their name on something lame.
