Someone may have already mention it, but the temp probe should go in the smallest item, then move it to the next larger item when the small one is at preferred temp, and so on, to the biggest last. Hope that helps. Also the hopper on my Timberline 850 holds about about a bag and a half of Traeger bagged pellets.
Good to see they added a gasket for the lid. I have an old Traeger I got at Costco 7 years ago... I added wool tape to the lid to function as a gasket.
FYI - It is not just "thick steel", but insulated walls for colder temps.
I’m sold! Win I hit the lotto, gonna get one.
Love the vids, thanks to you and the family. Have a great weekend bro!
Thanks Rob!!
before you become sold on something that will disappoint, FIRST do your due diligence... 1 minute to check out Rec Teq Grills. guarantee you will find terrible reviews on Traegers all over the web, including on the 850, but will barely find any on Recteq. Not to mention the fact that they're half the cost and much better construction. Check them out on youtube. I'm just giving you a heads up from a former Traeger owner who's goal is to spread the truth about the crap they sell. www.recteq.com/the-recteq-difference
Wings to start off with!
PPPlug it in your PPProtein. I was listening to this through speakers and felt like I was inside your mouth. But the kit review was great and it's Persuaded me to get one 👍
Gotta cook a nice prime brisket on the first cook
I’m with you Sam. It feels like that would do it justice.
Now all I need is to convince my wife
Huh- Traeger told me I melted the paint off the back of my gen 1 Timberline 850 from turning it up to 500°
It’s nice the Gen II has insulation in the back
Great video. Thanks!
Great video!!!!!
Have you tested variance in temperature between the top rack and bottom?
Three years later do you still have and do you still like it? Any troubles?
I plan on getting this smoker
How hot will it get could you sear a steak like in the Yoder or pit boss.
Great video. Thank you. I'm considering the 850 or 1300. They are not much different in price. Would you think you would prefer the 1300 or the 850? Are there times that you wish you had more room?
If you can afford it, go for the 1,300 so you have extra space.
@@BBQandBottles i can afford it. I just hate having something "so big" if it's not needed. thanks for the feedback!!
@@BBQandBottles how often do you run out of room? on your 850?
@@infomercialguywe’ve found the big dog on youtube.
You worried about the electronics at all sitting out in the winter elements?
No - we’ve had this outside for a full winter and didn’t have any problem.
How did this perform in the winter compared to your Pro Traeger? Did you notice a big difference with the double walled construction?
It definitely kept a tighter temp range… but you really notice the fact it uses fewer pellets.
Does this have a conpartment for wood chips and water for smoking?
No - the wood pellets do all the smoking.
you can buy a bluetooth thermal probe set and pair with the grill, then view with your phone app.... you don't expect them to give you a multiport setup, do you ?
Bruce, two problems with that. One, Bluetooth only has a ~30-50ft range vs this grill connects into your wifi so you can access the info anywhere you have a cell connection. Secondly, the Traeger App lets you control the temperature of the pellet grill itself - something you couldn’t do with a 3rd party temp probe. Anyway, for the price I would have expected multiple temp probes. A little disappointing.
How noisy are these Traeger 850s? I'm in the UK and my neighbours are fairly close - will they hear that hissing and blasting?
It’s not that bad. I can’t imagine the noise would be a problem, but hopefully they like smoke 💨
Have the fixed their temp sensor issues? I hear so many stories of them not keeping accurate constant temp
Let me test it next time I cook and I’ll report back. Seems to worked well for me so far.
Get the D2 version
@@wajang1000 what is the D2 version? How can you tell?
How do I pursuade my wife to allow me to buy this
Is this a D2 850 ?
Yep
Can it be used without the legs?
Like if you want it to be part of an outdoor kitchen? You could do that, the only thing I’d flag is you’ll need to still be able to access the grease trap and you may want to be able to access the pellet release door at the back of the hopper. So it might take some thinking on how you accomplish that.
@@BBQandBottles Yes, thanks for the quick response. Looks like an amazing smoker & would love to incorporate it in my outdoor kitchen.
Does it do a good reverse sear?
I wouldn’t say it does a great job on the searing part. I usually have my gas grill fired up to sear it off after smoking it on the Traeger.
@@BBQandBottles That's what I figured. Thank you.
have you left it in the rain, or outside through winter?
Yep - no problems but get the cover
So it's now over $3,000?
this is closer to the 2000 dollar range there is however one for 3,800
It’s hella noisy
Do you live in heaven?
I have a 1300 Timberline. Wifire connection is terrible, and seems to take forever to heat up!!! on my third controller! My Traeger Silverstone is great.
Sounds like you might have got a lemon. I’ve used Traegers for years and never had an issue.
What pellets are you using? Don't use traeger or pitboss pellets. You won't get good temps. Try lumberjack. Make sure they are 100% hardwood. I have the timberline 1300 d2 and started getting pissed. Now with other pellets I'm at 350 in 20 mins and 500 in 30.
@@eaglepainting8593 Thanks will do.
The app is horrible, if you leave it open you Will end up having to close and reopen it when you want live readings
