Not Another Grill/Smoker Thread - Traeger Ironwood 885?
by mocopdx (2023-03-24 17:04:52)

My current grill/smoke setup is a Weber gas grill for high heat and fast grills, and then a WSM for low and slow smoking. Have no issues with either one. I use both frequently. It’s a boring story so I won’t regale y’all with the details, but I currently have the ability to buy a Traeger 885 for 50% off. It would make a $1500 Traeger cost $750 brand new.

What say you, Back Room? Worth it to replace my current setup with a quiver killer? Waste of money given that I’m pleased with my current setup?
