Using wood pellets when cooking is not only extremely simple but will also transform your cooking. Fill the pellet hopper with your desired pellet, set the desired temperature (Pro Tip: You can also do this in the app), and the grill does the rest. Once the grill reaches temperature, place your food on the grates and let the wood-fired magic happen. As the pellets burn, they infuse your food with delicious wood-fired flavour, turning ordinary dishes into culinary masterpieces. Learn how to properly store your pellets and change them out by reading our articles.

To ensure your grill runs at its highest performance, and your food has the purest flavour, we recommend using genuine Traeger Hardwood Pellets. Our pellets meet our strict quality standards and are made of all-natural, virgin hardwood and contain no binders or chemicals - ensuring a clean burn, trusted performance, and unmatched wood-fired flavour. Our pellets are specifically designed to yield the best results on our grills. We cannot guarantee that other wood pellets meet our strict quality standards. The use of other wood pellets, wood chips, firebricks, or heating pellets can damage your grill.

We do not recommend storing your pellets outdoors because moisture negatively affects the pellets, sometimes making them unusable.

Yes, hardwood pellets are the heat source inside the grill and the grill cannot function without them. Not only do they provide heat, but they also provide the wood-fired flavour.

We recommend storing pellets indoors, in an airtight container, to avoid moisture getting into the pellets. Traeger recommends using our StayDRY Pellet Bin & Lid for optimal results.
