Replacement Burn Pots That Fit Your Pit Boss Grill
As Amazon Associates, we earn from qualifying purchases. This means we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you if you click through and make a purchase.
A Pit Boss pellet grill lives or dies by its burn pot, the small steel cup where the auger drops pellets and the hot rod ignitor lights them. After seasons of heat, grease and damp storage in a truck bed or camper, that cup can rust through, crack or warp, and the grill starts struggling to light or hold temperature. The good news is that a burn pot is a cheap, bolt-in part, and a whole aftermarket has grown up around it.
Be clear on one thing before you buy: none of the six parts below is an original Pit Boss component. They are third-party replacements from brands including FCCUM, COMVIEE, Fetechmate, GasSaf and Lqalmlao, sold as compatible with most Pit Boss and Traeger grills (not all). They differ in material (304 stainless, stainless, 14-gauge steel or alloy steel) and in what is in the box, from a bare pot with screws to a full kit with hot rod ignitor, fuse and ash remover.

Best for: Pro 850 or 820 owners needing just a pot

- Screws included
- 5 x 5 inch plate listed
Cons
- No igniter included
- Compatibility list is brief
The Fire Burn Pot Replacement Parts kit from FCCUM is the simplest option: one stainless steel fire pot and a set of screws. The seller says it fits Traeger and most Pit Boss pellet grills, and the listing highlight names the Pit Boss Pro 850 and 820 along with the Traeger Pro 22 and 34. It measures 5 x 5 x 3.54 inches and weighs 0.52 kg.
Installation is described as quick with basic tools. The seller also notes that if the bonus screws do not fit your grill, you should reuse your old screws, a caveat that shows up on nearly every listing here and is worth taking seriously: keep the original screws when you pull the old pot.
This suits Pit Boss Pro 850 or 820 owners whose ignitor still works and who only need to replace a rusted or burnt-through cup. If your grill is also slow to light, a kit that includes a hot rod, such as the COMVIEE Fire Burn Pot and Hot Rod, fixes both problems at once.

Fire Burn Pot and Hot Rod for Grills That Will Not Light
The Fire Burn Pot and Hot Rod Ignitor Kit from COMVIEE bundles four parts: a fire burn pot, a hot rod ignitor, a fuse and a set of screws. The pot measures 5 x 3 1/2 x 3 3/4 inches with seven large air holes and a 14-gauge steel wall. The hot rod has a total length of 30 inches with a high-density 200W/120V cartridge heating element.
COMVIEE lists compatibility with Traeger grills except PTG and most Pit Boss pellet grills, and it names a series of Traeger D2 Direct Drive models it does not fit. The Pit Boss exclusions are cut off in the listing text, so check the full product page against your model. The spec sheet calls the material stainless steel while the feature list says 14-gauge steel, so do not assume stainless. The installation tip is useful: set the new hot rod to protrude 1/8 to 1/4 inch into the pot.
This is the kit to pack when a grill at a tailgate or campsite cycles but never lights. Replacing the pot and ignitor together removes the guesswork about which part failed.

Pros
- 304 stainless steel
- Ash remover included
- Split welded construction
Cons
- No hot rod included
- Not for Pit Boss 1150
The 304 Stainless Steel Fire Burn Pot kit, also from COMVIEE, is the material upgrade. The pot is 304 stainless steel with split-welded construction, sized 5 x 3 1/2 x 3 3/4 inches with seven large air holes. It includes an ash remover and screws, and the listing says it fits Traeger (except PTG), most Pit Boss grills and Camp Chef pellet grills.
The exclusions are specific: it is not compatible with the Traeger TR20 or the Pit Boss 1150. The listing repeats the hot rod positioning tip even though no hot rod is included, so reuse your existing ignitor. Listed weight is 1.37 pounds.
Choose this if you smoke often or store the grill outdoors, where a thin steel pot rusts fastest. 304 stainless is well known for better corrosion resistance than plain steel. For keeping moisture off the whole grill between trips, see our guide to heavy-duty Pit Boss pellet grill covers.

Pros
- Pot, igniter, ash remover and fuse
- One-year warranty listed
- 200W/120V igniter
Cons
- Shorter 24 inch hot rod
- Several excluded models
The Fetechmate Fire Burn Pot and Hot Rod Ignitor kit is the most complete package: one burn pot, one hot rod ignitor, four screws, an ash remover and a fuse. The pot measures 5 x 3.46 x 3.78 inches, is made from 14-gauge steel with seven large air holes, and the hot rod is 24 inches long with a 3.8-inch heating stick and a 200W/120V cartridge element.
The heading on the listing says “stainless steel” while the body text specifies 14-gauge steel with rust resistance, so treat it as coated or plain steel. Exclusions include the Traeger Tailgater 20, the Pit Boss 1150 and several Traeger Pro, Ironwood and Timberline models. Fetechmate lists a one-year warranty.
This suits campers and tailgaters who want one box that covers every common burn-pot-area failure. Check that the 24-inch lead reaches your controller, since it is shorter than the 30-inch COMVIEE rod.

GasSaf Stainless Steel Fire Burn Pot for a Basic Stainless Upgrade
Best for: Simple stainless pot swap
Pros
- Stainless steel
- 7 air holes
- Screws included
Cons
- No model fit list
- Listed dimensions clearly wrong
The GasSaf Stainless Steel Fire Burn Pot is a stainless pot with seven air holes that GasSaf says increase pellet contact with air, plus bonus screws. The compatibility statement is broad: Pit Boss and Traeger pellet grills, not all.
The listing’s product dimensions read 0.5 x 0.4 x 0.3 inches, which cannot be right for a burn pot, and no model list is given. The item weight is 1.17 pounds. Without reliable dimensions, you will need to compare it against your old pot or contact the seller before ordering.
It suits owners who want stainless steel without paying for extras. If you want fit confirmed by named models, the FCCUM or 304 stainless COMVIEE listing gives more to go on.

Pellet Grill Fire Burn Pot for Owners Who Measure First
Best for: Owners who measure before ordering
Pros
- Full measurements listed
- 4 mounting screws included
- Honest fitment guidance
Cons
- Alloy steel not stainless
- No igniter or ash tool
The Pellet Grill Fire Burn Pot from Lqalmlao has the most honest listing in this group. It spells out the fitment: a 5 x 5 inch mounting plate, 3.54-inch inner diameter, 3.34-inch cup height, 2.16-inch front tube and a four-hole mounting layout. It asks you to compare all of those against your original part.
The pot is formed alloy steel rather than stainless, weighs 1.3 pounds and comes with four mounting screws. The listing is clear that the igniter rod, wiring, controller, tools and sealant are not included, and it reminds you to disconnect power and let the grill cool completely before service.
This is a solid pick if you have your old pot in hand and a tape measure. If your ignitor is also worn out, pair it with a separate hot rod or choose one of the kits above.
Before you choose
How to Choose the Right Pit Boss Burn Pot
Measure your old pot. Pellet grill fire pots usually use a 5 x 5 inch mounting plate, but cup height, air holes and tube position vary. Compare against the Lqalmlao and COMVIEE measurements before ordering. If you are still choosing a grill, our Pit Boss grills guide covers the lineup.
Check exclusions by model number. The Pit Boss 1150 is excluded by both the 304 stainless and Fetechmate listings. The FCCUM listing specifically names the Pro 850 and 820.
Decide whether to replace the ignitor. If your grill fails to light, the COMVIEE hot rod kit or the Fetechmate kit replaces both pot and igniter together.
Choose material by storage conditions. 304 stainless resists rust best. Plain steel and alloy steel pots are fine but wear faster in damp storage.
Keep ash under control. Built-up ash smothers pellets and causes flameouts. The kits with ash removers help, and good pellets that burn cleanly reduce buildup; see our Pit Boss pellets roundup.
Questions people ask
FAQ
Are these genuine Pit Boss parts?
No. All six are third-party replacements made to fit Pit Boss and Traeger pellet grills. Fit is listed as most models, not all.
Which Pit Boss burn pot should I buy?
For durability, the 304 stainless COMVIEE pot. If your grill also will not ignite, choose a kit with a hot rod, such as the COMVIEE Fire Burn Pot and Hot Rod or Fetechmate kit.
Do I need to replace the hot rod ignitor too?
Only if it has failed or is weak. Several kits include one, and the listings advise setting it 1/8 to 1/4 inch into the pot.
Will these fit the Pit Boss 1150?
The COMVIEE 304 stainless and Fetechmate listings explicitly exclude it. Others do not mention it, so measure first.
What if the included screws do not fit?
Several sellers say to reuse your original screws, so keep them when removing the old pot.
Is a 5 x 5 inch fire pot universal?
No. The plate may match, but cup depth, air holes and tube position differ between grills, so compare every measurement.
