What's the difference between Ozpig Series 2, Big Pig, and Traveller models?
The Ozpig Series 2 is the standard portable wood fire stove, the medium sized unit and perfect for camping, caravanning, and backyard use. The Big Pig offers larger cooking surfaces and greater heat output for bigger groups or more ambitious cooking projects. The Traveller provides ultra-portable design for serious adventurers prioritising minimal weight and pack size. All three burn wood or charcoal, provide heating and cooking surfaces, and accept similar accessories. Choose Series 2 for
versatility and portability, Big Pig for capacity and extra warmth, Traveller for offroad and smaller camping set ups. The 3-in-1 Flat Pack Fire Pit offers a budget friendly alternative that disassembles completely flat.
Can I use Ozpig as both a heater and cooker simultaneously?
Yes, all Ozpig models provide dual functionality. The top cooking surface heats while the fire burns for warmth. Add cooking accessories to expand capabilities - BBQ plates (round plates, flat iron plates, warming plates) for grilling, the Chargrill Plate and Drip Tray for BBQ-style cooking, a Wok for stir-frying, or rotisserie kits for spit roasting. The Oven Smoker attachment converts your Ozpig into a full smoking and baking oven while still providing heat. This versatility makes Ozpig ideal for camping where single pieces of equipment must serve multiple purposes. Use the Vented Door and Vent Door Adjuster to control airflow for temperature regulation.
What accessories do I need to get started with Ozpig smoking and BBQ?
For smoking, the Oven Smoker (available for Series 2, or with Big Pig Oven Smoker Adapter for Big Pig) is essential, it includes hanging racks, wire racks, temperature gauge, and creates the enclosed space needed for proper smoking. Add wood chips or chunks for smoke flavour. For BBQ, start with cooking plates, the Chargrill Plate and Drip Tray provides classic BBQ grill marks, while flat BBQ plates offer griddle-style cooking. Consider rotisserie kits (available for Series 2, Big Pig, and Fire Pit) with optional rotisserie baskets (small or large) or the Kebab Rotisserie Set for rotating meats. The Pizza Stone (9") fits inside the Oven Smoker for wood-fired pizzas.
How portable is Ozpig for camping and caravanning?
Ozpig Series 2 and Traveller are genuinely portable for camping. The Series 2 Heavy Duty Storage Bag protects and simplifies transport. The Traveller prioritises minimal weight and compact size specifically for mobile adventures. The Big Pig is portable but heavier and bulkier, better suited for at home setups, base camping, or locations where weight isn't critical. The 3-in-1 Flat Pack Fire Pit disassembles completely flat with included bag for easy transport and storage. All models have legs that fold or detach. Chimney sections disassemble into smaller pieces for packing.
What's included in Ozpig Smoker Combo packages?
The Series 2 Smoker Combo includes the Ozpig Series 2 Portable Wood Fire Stove plus the Oven Smoker attachment at a bundled price, everything needed to start smoking meats, fish, and vegetables immediately. The Big Pig Smoker Combo includes the Big Pig, Big Pig Oven Smoker Adapter, and Oven Smoker. Both combos provide complete smoking setups out of the box. The Oven Smoker includes hanging rack, wire racks, temperature gauge, water pan, chimney pieces, and door. Add wood chips for smoke flavor. These combos offer better value than purchasing items separately while ensuring compatibility between components.
Can I cook rotisserie chicken and large roasts on Ozpig?
Absolutely. Rotisserie kits are available for all main models, Series 2 Rotisserie Kit, Big Pig Rotisserie Kit, Traveller Rotisserie Kit, and Fire Pit Rotisserie Kit. Each includes a motor, shaft, prongs, and mounting brackets. The Rotisserie Baskets (small and large) allow cooking vegetables, smaller items, or foods that don't mount well on a spit. The Kebab Rotisserie Set accommodates multiple kebabs rotating simultaneously. Rotisserie cooking works over direct wood fire heat, creating crispy exteriors and juicy interiors. The Big Pig's larger size accommodates bigger roasts and whole birds. Use rotisserie accessories with regular Ozpig units or the standalone Fire Pit.
What maintenance and protection accessories does Ozpig need?
Protect your investment with custom-fit covers, Series 1 & 2 Custom Fit Cover, Big
Pig Cover, or Oven Smoker Custom Fit Cover shield units from weather when stored outdoors. The Heavy Duty Storage Bag protects during transport. Regular cleaning accessories include ash trays (Series 2 Ash Tray) for easy ash removal and lifting tools (Lifting Tool, Big Pig Lifting Tool) for safely moving hot components. Replace worn parts as needed, fire grates, door pins, spark arrestors, chimney sections, and door assemblies are all available separately. The Diffuser helps distribute heat evenly. Tool Racks organise cooking utensils nearby. An Ozpig Apron protects clothing during cooking.
