How many of you outdoor cook with a Traeger? If not what is your BBQ rig of choice?

I went for it on the 4th. It was just me,my wife and our 3 boys. Everybody got their favorite.

Put a 2 lb tri-tip on the smoker.

Ground lamb infused with blue cheese and basil.

Sauteed mushrooms with butter and garlic.

Two petite filet mignon's.

4 XL tiger shrimp

It all came out great. Plenty for all with leftovers to boot.

Had a great night eating and drinking by the pool.

I have two Vision Kamado Ceramic Grills. One at the house and one at the cabin. I will never go back to anything else.

hanging out with my girlfriend this weekend we got to talking about pizza on the Egg & she mentioned that I never made her a deep dish pie on it, challenge accepted. Mixed up a batch of dough at around 8am yesterday, by 9:30 it had doubled in size, punched it down & tossed it into a well olive oiled cast iron pan for rise #2, around noon I fired up the Egg & tossed a big chunk of pecan wood on top of the lump & about a half hour later I stabilized it at around 425 & added the pie, about 25 minutes later she was ready to eat:

The night before we fired up the Smoky Joe & made some portabella 'burgers' & homemade fries, used toasted English muffins for buns & some 'alouette' cheese, topped with grilled onion & avocado, washed it all down with some cold beers, great hot summer night in the hut:

Decided to do some jerky today, just not sure if I need the Traeger to do it though, it’s over 100* and smoky outside.

My good friend who I haven’t seen in 10 years smoked a 8 lb rib eye for about 5 hour this weekend.
Cut like butter.

Traegers look nice, But I still use my old Chargriller.
Couple years ago I won a Bradley 6rack digital smoker at BPS in Rocklin.
Still like smoking on my Chargriller better.

I do. Also cook with a propane grill. Mostly cook meat. Just did Country style ribs on the Traeger last week. The majority of my smoker cooking is meat that mostly can't be cooked well on a griller.

I use a DCS at home and a Webber Genesis at the cabin

Added this to the cabin options. Sort of looks like we have elected a new Pope. But after about 6 hrs the Pork Ribs turned out great

I noticed your photos do not show the digital temperature setting. I call that cheating! Nothing like having to adjust inlet and outlet doors throughout the cook. I did have my Weber silver bullet grill get much higher than I was shooting for and found that I like to smoke ribs at a higher temperate than pork or brisket. The Weber bullet smoker is gone and really like my Kamado Joe now.

Have had the Traeger for years now and the first thing I really liked about the pellet smoker was no flare up just good Smokey grilling!!!

What do you mean cheating, just because when i use the probe it Bluetooth's to my IPhone and notifies when my meat is ready you think this is cheating or because It also tells me it up to temp so I know when to put down my and put the meat on the grill. And if I have not finished my and can switch it to the " Keep Warm ' mode.

There is no way this is cheating it's being creative and making the most of my cocktail hour'(s)

Been working the fires for the past 3 weeks, been eating MRE's and cold food out of styrafoam containers.

Had a day off and spent the day doing important shit.....

Drinking beer and smoking pork.

Starting to show bones, about time to pull them.

It's about time to try a brisket though I think.

Try a brisket! I have found the brisket at local grocery stores are about $7 a pound but less than half that at Walmart and have always been happy with a Walmart brisket. They take a long time. I also found that it is best to get it done a couple of hours before you want to eat then let it rest in a cooler. For my daughters graduation party where I would be busy I did it the day before and warmed it back up for the party. It was awesome!

Celebrated my 54th birthday today.

Dinner with wife and 3 sons.

My boys brought over some good presents.

Here's to another 54 years, LOL!
