Taste The Difference
Food coming off a Traeger grill simply tastes better… It is just that simple! In fact, most people purchase Traeger products because they have already tasted the Traeger difference at a backyard BBQ at a friend’s house or at a Traeger demonstration at a local business. But be careful – once you taste it, you’ll be hooked…
With Traeger, you can have amazing barbeque in your own backyard. Apple smoked bacon, cherry chicken, mesquite flavored brisket, hickory ham, maple smoked salmon… your imagination just might be your only limitation.
Cooking with Wood
The experts agree, if you want the ultimate outdoor cooking experience, you will need to use hardwood. However, up until now you have been given only two choices for grilling, propane or charcoal. Finally, technology has caught up and a healthier, safer and tastier alternative has arrived. Before Traeger Wood Pellet Grills, you just couldn’t cook with wood unless you wanted to dig up your backyard, build a pit, cut down the trees, chop the wood, and make the fire … that sounds like a lot of work. At Traeger, we make cooking simple.
We have eight flavors of wood pellets that provide great taste to every dish. The amazing taste the pellets provide is just one of the many benefits, there are no artificial binders. You can’t say that about the other grilling options.
Additionally, Traeger cares about our environment. All Traeger Wood Pellet Grills reduce your carbon footprint and are made from 100% natural material. That means nothing harmful is cooking your food. That’s something we think is
important.
As far as cost, wood pellets win there as well. Propane costs twice as much per BTU as natural wood pellets, and as far as charcoal is concerned, are there really any benefits?
In our ongoing testing and research of hardwood pellets, we found that many other wood pellet manufacturers frequently utilize recycled wood material. Recycled wood material many times will include treated or painted wood (from sources such as hardwood floors and furniture) and particle board or MDF to name just a few. Did you know that formaldehyde is a chemical used widely by industry to manufacture building materials, particularly pressed wood products such as particle board and that most hardwood floors are treated with polyurethane? Would you really want to be grilling your dinner over these types of potentially toxic materials?
Processed wood by-products such as formaldehyde and polyurethane are extremely undesirable for use in barbeque pellets as they may produce toxic fumes and unpredictable variations in how pellets burn.
Unfortunately at this time, there is little regulation over wood pellet content in the United States and what little regulation does exist is aimed at the wood pellet stove industry. Due to this, many large pellet manufacturers obtain hardwood from wherever they can, including using the cheaper recycled wood sources. At Traeger, we are committed to providing consistently high quality, SAFE hardwood barbeque pellets to maximize the Traeger experience and our customer’s safety. We provide a measure of quality control that is unmatched in the industry.
We vigorously monitor our selected raw material suppliers to insure strict compliance with our demanding standards as we do not particularly care to have our food or our children’s food flavored with polyurethane or formaldehyde. We suspect that you feel the same way.
Why would you cook with anything else? Stop grilling, start TRAEGER’ing!
Grilling
So you want to just turn up the heat and grill – no problem. With the Traeger it is as simple as turning the knob to the highest setting – and you are grilling. It is simple and safe. Another Traeger advantage is the ability to grill at temperatures as low as 180 degrees Fahrenheit. The last thing you want to do to your salmon is destroy it with high temperatures… With Traeger, you simply set the control and let the grill do the work.
Baking
Baking is one of the most underutilized features of any backyard BBQ. Why settle for just the main course when you can literally bake pizza, biscuits, breads, cookies and cobblers right there on your Traeger. The fan literally makes your Traeger function like a convection oven – giving you a wood-fired oven. Did I forget to mention how awesome a wood-fired oven makes food taste?
Roasting
Our patented technology allows for you to bring the roasting experience outdoors. Roasting uses dry heat and your Traeger is perfect for this method. Roasting will create caramelization of the surface of the food, which is a wonderful flavor enhancement. Roasting uses more indirect, diffused heat and is suitable for slower cooking.
Braising
It is possible to braise meats and vegetables in a pot on top of your Traeger. To braise, put a pot on top of the Traeger, cover it, and let it simmer for a few hours. There are two advantages to barbecue-braising: the first is that this method now allows for browning the meat directly on the grill before the braising, and the second is that it also allows for glazing the meat with sauce and finishing it directly after the braising, effectively cooking the meat three times, which results in a soft textured product that falls right off the bone.
BBQ
Want to do it while you’re sleeping, at work, watching the game? A Traeger provides extremely low and reliably even heat. Put your dish on the Traeger, set to low and let the magic work. Perfect fall off the bone ribs, brisket, and lamb shanks are just some of the meals you will enjoy.
No Babysitting
Your Traeger does all the hard work so you don’t have to. Simply turn the Traeger on and the auto-start feature will automatically light the grill. After a few short minutes, you can select the desired cooking temperature place your food on the grill and then walk away. That’s right, rejoice in the freedom of being with family and friends while the Traeger does the work of cooking the best tasting food, every time.
The auger precisely controls the dispense rate for the pellets, keeping the temperature just right. The fan evenly distributes the heat and the smoke, so you will have consistent results every time.
The days of hovering over the grill, firefighting flare-ups and making sure that you don’t leave the dish on the “hot spot” for too long will be a distant memory. With Traeger, the most difficult part of your outdoor cooling will be making up stories about how you slaved over the grill to produce such magnificent results!
