Great Grill
This is the second Tailgater I have owned. The first one, I sold because I purchased a Pro 575 for my RV. The 575 turned out to be a bit to big for me to handle, so I am going to sell. I ended up purchasing a new Tailgater to use in its place. Well built grill, light enough to move around, cooks the food perfect, with a hint of smoke flavour.

Chef’s thoughts
I like a lot about how easy it is to use. But there are big holes that allow way too much smoke and heat to vent out with no option to cover them and allow it to hold heat or smoke better temps are all over the place. Alittle bummed about it cause if it held the heat and smoke better it would be the coolest pellet grill I’ve ever worked with as I am a professional chef. Seems like yall added an affordable option but made it alittle to cheaply.

It's ok
I have had this grill for a number of years and I can only say it's ok. Temperature control is spotty, at best and uneven. And the metal hinges on the lids broke within 18 months. A hot lid came off in my hands suddenly when I opened it and almost burned me. I was able to patch it back together but it's loose now and a little scary.

Tailgater is excellent for my smoking needs.
I love my Tailgater. I have cooked many of items on it since purchasing about 4 years ago. The only thing I would change is I wish Traeger would create an owners manual specifically for the Tailgater with the digital control, as I get pretty tired of needing to Google how to use the controller to check the probe temp. I guess I don't have a great memory because I keep forgetting how to check it. Anyway, this thing is a game changer for smoking and grilling. I also wish it had a door to dump the hopper so it would be easier to change pellets. Lastly I would like to add; I never have issues with temperature fluctuation, shut off, or error codes. I also clean out the pellet stove with a shop vac before every smoke.

Going to upgrade once this one dies
I have had a tailgater for 5 years from the kids on my 60th. We hardly ever use the oven any more and the grills were send to the dumpster. Mine has no temp probe but cooks everything perfect if I temp it. It has so many hours of use the paints bubbling on top and the grease tray is warped, but still works.

Killer Little Grill!
Killer grill. I use it for full-time home use and I almost never fire up my propane grill now. Been going strong for 2 years. Lives outside full-time in the weather, and still looks great. No issues. It doesn't get hot enough to quick sear, but something about how it heats it still doesn't "bake" burgers or steaks. They always come out perfect, even when I get distracted. Grill surface doesn't heat even, but I like having different zones for different things, just like on a gas grill. Perfect for me. Going to take this to my summer house and upgrade to an Ironwood for my winter place. Full convert.
