"The Staq was born directly from our community’s input. For years, our customers have asked us to create a vertical smoker with the durability, temperature control, and performance they expect from recteq,” said recteq CEO Ralph Santana. “We built the Staq to deliver serious capacity and a deep, consistent smoke environment, while optional accessories give backyard cooks even more ways to use it. You can slow-smoke a delicate salmon in the morning and sear ribeyes for dinner in the dedicated steak drawer," said recteq CEO Ralph Santana.

Offering professional-grade performance that makes sense for the home griller and setting a new standard for versatility in the vertical smoker market, the Staq offers these key features designed to elevate backyard cooking:

• 1,900 Square Inches of Cooking Space: The Staq delivers an impressive 1,900 square inches of cooking space. Cooking grates can fit untrimmed racks of ribs and full-size aluminum pans simultaneously, which eliminates the need to prep or trim food just to fit the chamber. With five cooking grates, users can easily cook multiple large cuts of meat or full pans at once, perfect for serious backyard cooks and competitors alike.

• Rotisserie Kit & Steak Drawer Add-On Accessories: Beyond traditional low-and-slow smoking, the Staq offers accessories that expand its versatility, including a Rotisserie Kit and a Steak Drawer for direct-flame searing.

• True Low & Slow 150°F Precision: The Staq hits temperatures as low as 150°F, meaning the Staq offers the lowest temps of any smoker in recteq’s lineup. This expanded precision temperature range is ideal for artisan-level jerky, delicate fish, homemade sausage, and overnight food holding.

• High Heat Temperature Gets Up to 700°F: The Staq’s main chamber delivers consistent heat up to 450°F, while the dedicated steak drawer (sold separately) reaches intense temperatures up to 700°F for perfect, direct-flame searing.

• Engineered for Consistent, Professional Results: Beyond professional-grade stainless steel construction and recteq’s iconic stainless steel horn handles, the Staq features a double-walled design and an advanced airflow system. This ensures even temperatures throughout the entire chamber, so users don’t have to rotate constantly or reposition food. The vertical smoker also includes PID and WIFI connectivity that pairs with the top-rated recteq App for set-it-and-forget-it convenience.
