Just because it’s not warm doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a bit of barbecued goodness. As January brings crisp, sunny days to Norwich, we think it’s the perfect time to take your outdoor cooking to the next level with the help of a Traeger Pellet Grill. These innovative grills let you enjoy the rich, wood-fired flavours of barbecuing without having to spend hours outside in the cold.

In this guide, we’ll talk about Traeger and their ground-breaking grills and why we reckon they’re the bit of kit you need for a spot of winter outdoor cooking.

What is a Traeger wood pellet grill?

A Traeger pellet grill is an outdoor grill that uses 100% natural hardwood pellets as its fuel instead of charcoal. Invented by Traeger back in 1987, this incredible cooker offers a whole host of choices to the chef, capable of roasting, baking, smoking, grilling, and more. With a wide range of pellet flavours available, including chicory, cherry, apple, and pecan, you can introduce some amazing flavour profiles to your food.

How does a wood pellet grill work?

Wood pellet grills work by consistently feeding the all-natural, compressed hardwood pellets to the fire. The pellets sit in the grill’s hopper, from which they steadily shift into an auger and are moved to the HotRod, which ignites them. This fills the grill chamber with heat and smoke packed with beautiful, woody flavour.

A fan moves the heat and smoke around which helps the Traeger achieve perfect evenly-cooked results, while the drip tray prevents flames from jumping up and licking the food. Traeger grills come with a temperature controller system, allowing you to spend time away from the grill with those special to you while it gets on with the cooking.

Why choose a Traeger Pellet Grill?

Traeger has transformed outdoor cooking with their wood pellet grills, offering versatility and convenience. With the ability to grill, smoke, bake, roast, braise, and barbecue, a Traeger grill is your all-in-one outdoor cooking companion. Thanks to the automated pellet feeding system ensuring consistent temperatures, you can enjoy perfectly cooked meals every time without the hassle of constant checking. This is what makes it so ideal for year-round cooking.

Winter grilling made simple

One of the standout features of Traeger grills is their ‘set-it-and-forget-it’ functionality. Simply set your desired temperature, and the grill takes care of the rest. This means you can prepare delicious smoked meats, roasted vegetables, or even baked desserts without constantly monitoring the grill. 

Stay warm indoors and only step outside when it’s time to serve up your food. This is especially possible if you opt for one of the WiFire-enabled grills like the Traeger Pro 575. This incredible grill allows you to control it via WiFi from the Traeger app, as well as access over 1,600 recipes.

If tech isn’t your game, you can look at the Traeger Pro 22, a great simplistic grill, still controlled via Traeger’s precise digital temperate controller, and where it all started for the brand.
