    Traeger timberline 850

    Personally I think there much better pellet smokers out there compared to the traeger. I had nothing but issues with temp fluctuations. I ended up with a Rec Tec and haven’t had an issue.

    Give ThermoWorks a call. I had a similar problem and they sent me a new probe.

    I think you will find most people for use the probe that’s is part of the smoker. Most everyone use ThermoWorks or another brand of temp probes. To be honest I only use a ThermoWorks thermopen now on poultry. With pork and beef it’s just color and tenderness with probe

    Requesting suggestions on my next grill/smoker

    I’ve had the timberline and the GMG Daniel Boone. Far from quality and reliability that you get from Rec Teq. Never had a camp chef or know anyone personally who has one. Of course this is just my option after using 3 of the units

    Requesting suggestions on my next grill/smoker

    I am sorry but Rec Teq is on a whole lot better level than traeger, GMG and camp chef. Yes there are better units than Rec Teq like Mak but they are pricey and more than most people need

    ANOTHER new smoker thread, please educate me :) I dont' know much about these.

    If you want a bottom 1/3 pellet smoker get a traeger or a GMG. You want a smoker that will perform excellent get a Rec Teq

    Traeger Timberline 1300

    After owning a traeger before I’d never own one again even if someone gave it to me. Do yourself a favor and get a Rec Teq. You will thank me later

    Trying to choose smoker for husband. Is it worth waiting for Memorial Day or Father's Day sales?

    You will spend more money in the long run by going to a traeger or Daniel Boone because soon you will realize that they are not that great. Get the Rec Teq, if pellet smoking isn’t his thing you will be able to sell it quickly.

    Here's my issue with pellet smokers

    Those huge temp swings is why I got rid of my GMG and Traeger. I got a Rec Tec bull now and do not have those issues anymore

    Inkbird versus Thermoworks?

    ThermoWorks is the gold standard and the go to for most professionals. I am a believer you get what you pay for

    Pellet Grill Search...

    I have a Rec Teq bull and it doesn't take that much maintenance. I vacuum the firepot and interior of the unit about every 4 to 6 cooks which takes me about 3 to 4 minutes. Use good pellets and you will get less ash to worry about. Changing pellets isnt a big deal I just scoop them out and add...
