There is no question that the food that comes of the Traeger is amazing but the Pro series is still a disappointment. I would argue it is an amaizing outdoor convection oven rather than the top of the line grill it is touted as. This unit does not provide a heavy smoke profile to the food nor does it have the ability to sear. To pull off either with the Pro series requires the purchase of third party equipment. Now I see why it is the cheapest of all three lines. The sad part is I would have paid more for a better grill but I was sure I was buying the best....unfortunately I was not.
