Hi, my name is Ken and I’ve been grilling with charcoal for the past 8 years and finally broke down and bought a Traeger Pro 575 pellet grill. I was just tired of not being able to control my temp and I’ve been wanting the ability to smoke meats. I’ve only used it a couple times but I’m really happy with it and excited to smoke a turkey on Christmas Day. I’ll let you know how it turns out.
