Blink twice, and you'll miss the newest smart tech for your home hitting the market this year. While we're captivated by lights, media room tech, and wearable devices, the Zelos-450 Smart Grill from Brisk It® really turned heads at CES as an affordable AI grill.
It looks beyond everyday routines and is angling to be the best smart grill concept on the market. Take note: this isn't an electric or gas grill; it's a pellet grill, and every meal will enjoy the wood-fired flavor finish you achieve from wood pellets.
While there might always be a place in my heart for a charcoal grill, playing with new smart features of a wood pellet grill has a way of making the overall cooking experience fun and memorable. This new smart pellet grill combines cutting-edge generative Vera 2.0 AI with the art of grilling. For early adopters, it's a must-have piece of home cooking tech.
Equipped with smart features like Vera™ 2.0 Cooking AI, the Zelos-450 doesn’t just grill—it learns, automates, and perfects to make sure that every meal is personalized and consistent, whether you're a pitmaster with a strong track record for entertaining or a novice who aspires. “Vera 2.0 represents a major leap forward in our mission to simplify grilling for everyone,” shared Christopher Huang, CEO of Brisk It in a recent press release. “By combining generative AI with visualization and automation, Vera doesn’t just make suggestions—it actively creates, adapts, and manages the entire cooking process."
He adds, "Together, Vera AI and the Zelos-450 showcase our vision of ‘One-Click BBQ for Everyone.’”
Vera A.I. + BBQ
What sets the Zelos Smart Grill apart from any other outdoor grill smoker on the market is its integration of Vera 2.0, Brisk It’s generative cooking AI. This isn’t just a smart device; it's the kind of tool that makes you rethink how you approach outdoor cooking. At its core, Vera combines advanced image recognition and continuous learning to simplify grilling in ways that, frankly, surprise us to no end.
Picture this: you’re scrolling social and see a recipe for mouthwatering smoked ribs. With a simple upload, Vera translates that into a personalized recipe, complete with tweaks for your flavor preferences. Forgot an ingredient? Snap a photo of what’s in your fridge, and Vera crafts a BBQ-worthy recipe using what you already have. It’s like having a professional chef on standby who never says no.
We enjoy grilling, but rarely have time to smoke meats all day, but I think that's about to change. Vera’s ability to fully automate the cooking process helps to simplify the experience and make it lower maintenance. Yes, it'll adjust cooking temperatures. Yes, it can allegedly handle unexpected hiccups (like forgetting to spritz your ribs). Yes, its goal is to make sure that every bite is perfect.

Is This a Grill Built for Entertaining?
It sure looks like it, though for a big backyard gathering, I worry it's a little small. Nonetheless, the Zelos-450 has all the makings of a backyard showpiece, from its one-click BBQ automation to its ability to customize recipes in real time. It’s smart, slick, and packed with features that’ll have your guests asking, “Wait, your grill does what?”
Beyond the cool factor, it seems like a no-brainer for busy dudes, gadget lovers, or anyone who’s ever ruined dinner because they got distracted. With AI handling the precision and timing, you’re free to enjoy the party (and the food).
Oh, and let’s not forget the flavor. The Zelos-450 promises that rich, wood-smoked BBQ taste while adapting to every cook to nail consistency. High-tech, great flavor, and less hassle? Sounds like a winner.
