My brother got an electric Traeger grill+smoker (thats also wifi?) that uses an electric element to grill. We've been here for 45 minutes+ waiting for this thing to get to 225 lol that doesn't even consider the time it took to do the pellets. we're making porterhouses. I would have had these things done by now on my propane grill smh. --- http://i.imgur.com/x04tPRZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/t7T392I.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Idk wtf is going on. They had to "build" the grill when it was shipped so I dunno if they fucked up but we've been waiting here for almost two hours at 225 and the steaks are at 105. Idk wtf he did wrong cuz this is not how a grill should function ever lmao --- http://i.imgur.com/x04tPRZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/t7T392I.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

This shit was like a 6 hour grill from priming the pellets to getting the steaks off the grill. Absolutely insane. Finally got them off the grill. The steaks look really good but I could do this in 20-25 minutes on a propane grill and get a way better crust.

I think the problem was that he was using the Traeger app and it determined the heat for the recipe. But we think the app glitched and wasn't functioning correctly. Just some real dumb unnecessary shit. The steaks came out surprisingly good though. Rare, very even, decent enough crust. Just think I could do it eye ball it better on a gas grill. --- http://i.imgur.com/x04tPRZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/t7T392I.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

I ran a natural gas line to my grill years ago and changed the orifices in it. I legit make bratwurst, burger, or grilled chicken at least once every other week year round ever since.

But it took way too long to heat up. Also I tried to get him to stop using the fucking app but he wouldn't lol its controlled by a knob and an led screen without the app. It all seems so unnecessary. --- http://i.imgur.com/x04tPRZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/t7T392I.jpg ...

VirtuousWrath 05/25/23 2:05:59 PM #25: |
Btw, could be an airflow issue. The electric coil is responsible for igniting the pellets but without good airflow, things won't circulate as they should. Did you build it yourself or get it pre-assembled? Also, instead of spending $1700 on a grill, you could've got an awesome $400 barrel grill and used lumpwood charcoal. --- "I sung of chaos and eternal night, taught by the heav'nly muse to venture down the dark descent, and up to reascend... ...

Probably wasn't fired up right, but it takes like 15-20 minutes to reach proper heat anyway. Traeger is one of those "pay for a name" brands imo, I had one, had problems with it, went with another brand that reviewed well called ZGrills and it's been a lot more reliable, consistent and overall better. --- "They speak of progress, in red, white and blue.

If you are smoking something for like 30 hours, it can alert you when you need to fill the hopper again, or when temperature is dropping or there is an issue.
