Camp Chef Sidekick Pellet Grill Accessory
Overview
The Camp Chef Sidekick Pellet Grill Accessory is a propane-powered single-burner add-on that brings Camp Chef’s 14" VersaGrill system capabilities to most full-size Camp Chef pellet grills (2016 and newer). With a 30,000 BTU cast-aluminum burner and a detachable, pre-seasoned steel griddle, it lets pellet-grill owners quickly switch to high-heat searing, griddling, frying, boiling, or sautéing without buying a separate cooktop. It attaches to the pellet grill’s accessory rail, includes a tank holder, Matchless ignition, Wind Baffled Technology, and a grease-management system for cleaner cooking. Ideal for backyard cooks who want one integrated station for both low-and-slow smoking and high-temperature stovetop techniques, it expands menu options while keeping setup compact and portable.
Key Features
- 30,000 BTU cast-aluminum single burner for high-heat performance and fast recovery.
- Detachable, pre-seasoned 14" steel griddle included for flat-top cooking and easy removal for cleaning.
- Designed for Camp Chef 14" accessory rail — compatible with most 14" tools and attachments (sold separately).
- Matchless push-button ignition and fully adjustable heat-control knob for simple, reliable operation.
- Wind Baffled Technology and integrated grease management system to stabilize flame in outdoor conditions and channel drippings for easier cleanup; tank holder included. Overall height approximately 6 inches when mounted.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- High power: 30,000 BTU burner produces quick searing and rapid boil times.
- Versatile cooking: supports griddling, frying, searing, boiling, braising and baking when paired with 14" accessories.
- Easy setup: Matchless ignition and a single control knob make it straightforward to use.
- Durable materials: cast-aluminum burner and pre-seasoned steel griddle stand up to heavy use and conduct heat well.
- Compatible integration: mounts to most full-sized Camp Chef pellet grills (2016+) so you can combine smoking and stovetop cooking in one station.
Cons
- Requires a compatible Camp Chef pellet grill (2016 and newer); not universal to other brands.
- Runs on a separate 20-lb propane cylinder (not included), adding fuel management for pellet grill users.
- Accessory-only: most 14" add-ons are sold separately, increasing total cost to fully equip the system.
- No built-in cover — griddle and burner exposed when not in use, requiring care in storage or use of a separate cover.
Recommendations
- Backyard grillers who already own a compatible Camp Chef pellet grill and want to add a high-heat stovetop/griddle option without buying a second cooktop.
- Campers or tailgaters who need a compact, attachable single-burner that uses a standard 20-lb propane tank and packs away with the grill.
- Home cooks who like to alternate between low-and-slow smoking and quick searing or griddle-based breakfasts (pancakes, eggs, burgers).
- Anyone building a versatile outdoor kitchen around the Camp Chef 14" VersaGrill ecosystem and planning to add specialty accessories (griddle, pizza stone, skillets).
