    Calling all Traeger and Rec Tec enthusiasts

    Hi everyone, I have decided to pull the trigger on a new pellet grill. At the moment, I am torn between the Rec Tec RT-700 and the Traeger Ironwood series. If you own any of these grills, I would love to hear about your experience with them. cheers, Dennis

    Smoked Brisket on Traeger

    I’m 12 hours into my cook today. Smoking is seriously one of the most entertaining things. This is my second brisket but have smoked a few hundred ribs and around 50 pork shoulders. Every time feels like a first, and the process is always a new lesson and challenge. Grilling is something that...

    Ribs are a bit too fall off the bone

    Hello folks, I recently smoked up 3 racks of baby back and they turned out great. I did however want them to hang on the bone a bit more. They were sliding right off and I wasn’t able to cut them individually. By the way I use a Traeger 22 Pellet Grill. Again, the ribs were great, meat was...

    Hey guys! I’m new here. I have a brand new Traeger Ironwood 650. Traeger has sent me 2 probes already and both are now reading “bad probe” on the control module. I called Traeger and told them about this, so they sent me a whole new control module. I just installed it and am still getting...

    Hey guys, new to smoking and the forum! I just finished my first 28 hour smoke on a 16lb brisket. I had it wrapped in butcher paper for the back end and when it hit 195, I took it out and placed it in a large cooler lined with foil. I kept it in the juices wrapped in the butcher paper, then...

    I bought an 18 lbs brisket. Help!

    Recently bought a pellet smoker and was looking to use it for the first time this Sunday (I have fired it up to prime the auger and season the grill). Hard to find brisket, but wife found a monster 18 pounder at Costco. Can I separate the top and cook just that? Can I freeze the other half and...

    Traeger Reverse Sear Steak

    It was my birthday. I had bought a prime grill trimmed rib steak. I could just fire up my Weber Genesis grill but I decided to see how my new Traeger Timberline smoker did on a reverse sear. For those of you who don’t know what a reverse sear is, you smoke a steak at low temperature and then...

    Traeger Timberline 850 Review

    I’ve had my Timberline Grill for a couple of weeks and will give you my impressions. I’ll start by talking about the construction of the grill. It is made of much heavier guage steel than most home smokers. Then they use double wall construction to lend strength and insulation for steadier...

    Traeger Quality Control - going downhill?

    I'm a newbie here, used to be over on Pelletheads and I've owned a Traeger Texas for 8+ years and upgraded after a house move to a new Pro 34. So far that was a huge mistake! Has Traeger quality gone downhill? Wonder what new owners are experiencing? My new grill takes twice as long to cook...

    Help Me Decide Between PID Controllers

    Hi All, I have a Traeger Pro 34 and have way too many temp fluctuations and occasional flame outs when cooking at 180F. I am strongly considering getting a new PID controller to avoid the temp fluctuations and allow for auto relight if necessary, but can't decide which would be best. Hoping...

    Test Bird

    I decided I needed "proof of concept" with the smoke tube & Traeger combo. Picked up a 12lb "nothing special" bird a while back. It's been thawed for at least a few days, so, Sunday was the day. Spatchcock, I didn't brine this one simply to keep things easy. Spice prep was Garlic Lover's...
