It's not you big_holla it's me and how I am wired...
I do love the pictures and stuff.
I love my Traeger, but there are others out there, some better than others. same with pellets. Take a look at the Traeger Forum, lots of good ideas and information. Finished some maple cured, cherry smoked bacon last week.
Shit happens.... Meet Stimmy the grill
Welcome to the new world of cooking. You can't go wrong with that. If I didn't want to keep a propane that would have been my purchase
I think we have only used our propane once since we purchased ours.
@giles summed it up after re-reading a lot of this thread. Just the ability to cook everything on it and being able to sear down to smoke is what helped make the final decision. Then it was just size and features. The discount was nice too, definitely left room for plenty of pellets and accessories.
Got Stimmy all seasoned earlier today. Now she’s loaded with venison backstraps for an hour smoke, then seared to finish off later. Smells incredible in the backyard!
To say they were good would be an understatement! Literally melted in your mouth. Thank you all who have added something to this thread. My only regret is not saving the money earlier to get one.
Like a glove! Pumped to bring this thing along for our weekend camping trips. My dad has put his through its paces and still recommends it. Between this and my 2 burner propane camp stove with griddle, I can whip up some good feeds.
This thing got to 515 tonight while grilling burgers. Very pleased with the wide range of cooking temps and ease of use.
Did my first shoulder on it this weekend. 10# chunk tool 15 hours. On at 9PM @ 200 until 9AM (filled up the pellet hopper at 6AM) and then I notched it up to 275 to finish. That said, it runs hot and I was well over 300 by the time it finished, but it made great bark. Pulled it off at 1, wrapped in foil and a blanket, then into the cooler until I shredded it at 7. Maybe one of the best I've ever made. Rubbed with Meat Church's Gospel BBQ Rub. 
Not sure if ya’ll heard of this guy name Heath Riles? I’ve been checking up on the recipe of the food he makes and I came across with some of the bbq rubs he has in store online for $10 plus shipping. I was going to order some but luckily I didn’t, because when I was at rural king, they had some of his bbq rubs on the shelf for $7.99. These are the two I bought
I would imagine the garlic jalapeños rub on the frogs legs would be phenomenal
Alright alright alright……finally made myself go buy one today.
