    Lumber Jack Pellets at Rural King.

    I stopped in to my local RK a few months back to get some Lumber Jack to try, well not exactly local as its an hour round trip just in driving. It was off sale at the time and the price was the same as TSC where I can get Bear Mountain. I can get Pit Boss at the local Walmart for the same...

    Thinking about getting an insulated blanket for my Traeger Pro 34

    Wound up getting the generic cover off Amazon for $75 and we are smoking ribs today with it. It took 15 minutes to get up to 350F this morning when it was 36 and slightly windy. Last time without the cover it took MUCH longer than that and it never got up to set temp.

    Thinking about getting an insulated blanket for my Traeger Pro 34

    The welding blanket sounds like a maybe since it’s pretty inexpensive. Would I just lay it over the top? What do you do with it when you gotta open the lid? Does it get too hot to touch or do I need a pair of fire gloves to mess with it?

    Thinking about getting an insulated blanket for my Traeger Pro 34

    We have been kicking around the idea of getting a blanket for winter but were not totally sure about it. This past weekend we did some steaks when the ambient temp was 32. Took a long time to heat up and OMFG the heat loss with the door open. So I humbly ask that you educate me on blankets...

    First Meatloaf

    I want to say we set the oven around 350, not positive on duration but I know we don't aim for an IT in the oven. Gonna have to try that next time. Thanks everyone

    First Meatloaf

    We cooked our first meatloaf on the Pellet smoker today. Our usual recipe that we have done 100s of times in the oven except this time on the pellet smoker. We used Pit Boss Competition Blend pellets and set it to 225 and ran it for 3 hours then bumped it up to 275 to try and crisp it up. It was...

    Anyone tried this?

    We do ribs start to finish unwrapped. About 5-6 hours total. The last batch we added spritzing with apple juice each hour. We have never monitored internal temp on them either. Near the end when the bone ends start exposing we know they are done. We used to smoke on a gasser with a wood chip box...

    Our First Butt is on the Traeger

    I think the next we will try unwrapped to keep the bark crisp. We might give 250 a try on the next. The grill was still generating quite a bit of smoke at 250 so we should still be good. If that fails I can toss in our smoke tube. It’s only 8 inches so it will only generate about 5 hours of...

    Our First Butt is on the Traeger

    10.5 hours, hit 201 internal then put in a cooler for an hour. It literally fell apart when we went to start shreadings.

    Our First Butt is on the Traeger

    Almost done. 193 after 9 hours. I had this preconceived idea that this was going to be harder than it actually has been

    Our First Butt is on the Traeger

    So I think we hit the stall as of 1 pm central as we only went up 4*F in 30 minutes. We decided to loosely wrap in foil and take the temp up to 250*F. We seem to be back in business. It took 5.5 hours at 225 to go from 34 to 150. Now we are up to 155 1/2 hr after wrapping. this was about...

    Our First Butt is on the Traeger

    So do I aim for 160 and then foil wrap or watch the temp and wrap when I hit the stall?

    Our First Butt is on the Traeger

    So this morning we fired up the Traeger Pro 34 pellet filled with Pit Boss apple pellets. Been on for almost 2 hours now and will continue to cook. 225 F low and slow. Every hour we will spritz with apple juice and just play it by ear. Last night we mixed up the rub then rubbed it down and let...

    Do I need sear plates?

    Thanks, these look similar to what my buddy is calling his sear plates. I will have to look into them more. So far we have really enjoyed the pellet smoker and find ourselves grilling / smoking more than before on the old gasser. We are just missing that finishing look / touch of the final...

    Do I need sear plates?

    The new Traeger replaced the old 15+ year gas grill so no way to add a sear burner to it. Somebody else has it now or the metal scrappers grabbed it up on garbage day.

    Do I need sear plates?

    New to the pellet world. Do I need to get sear plates or do they really only give me the grate marks I used to get from my gas grill?
