Honestly you didn’t use it right. You get a ton of smoky flavor if you cook it lower at first (just the smoke setting), and then higher when it reaches an internal temp of around 115 degrees. You’ll get extremely dark chicken with red coloring on the meat. It’s very juicy and it comes out flavorful. You have to give it time to smoke. My chicken takes a little over 4 hours and crispy darker skin. Also use better pellets. Signature blend is weak. Try hickory or cherry pellets

I just upgraded to that model and I love it. When you did this review you didn't say anything about the smoke flavor in the meat which is one of the biggest reasons to use it. The smoke flavor is totally there every time and I think people who were interested would want to know that

Quality Pellets definitely matter for much more flavor, burns hotter and less ash build up for easier cleanup. Also you need to do a prep cook the meat at much lower temps to get more of the smoke flavor before the actual cooking. For steaks you need to smoke it in the traeger then finish it in cast iron on a gas grill to get the sear.

I just purchased my first Traeger and went straight to the 780. Doing my homework to get the smoke flavor you must drop the temp down to get the smoke flavor to your food. I believe you can get the grill and get crispy you just have to know how to use it for what you are doing

Unless its a Timberline or Yoda pellet grill, you will need a smoke tube filled with wood pellets if you want lots of great smoke flavour. Also with chicken on a pellet grill, after the initial smoke-1 or 2 hrs then you need to raise the temp to at least 350 to finish and cook/crisp otherwise the skin will be rubbery.

Great idea to do reviews of other grills. I’m a BGE guy all day, but often wondered if Traeger would have been a better option based on the connectivity, temperature control and use of pellets instead of charcoal. I’d take a free traeger, but definitely wouldn’t purchase one. Just a suggestion on the review in general, maybe consider rating the individual parts of each grill : setup, use, each food you cooked, etc. I think it’s tough to give an overall rating when there are parts that are better than the grill as a whole Looking forward to seeing more reviews. I’d be interested to see some Weber reviews and see how gas holds up in the mix

I returned a Traeger 780 for the 34 pro. The new ones are too well controlled. No smoke flavor compared to the original. It’s the cooling and heating flux of the original that allows for smoke. I cooked a brisket, chicken breast, and burgers. My wife even noticed saying she misssed my old Traeger. That was it…. Went into my local ACE and told them all about it. Said I was the only person to complain ( I think not many go from old to new) I know how a Traeger should cook. They called the rep. And had a new 34pro delivered and they took that used hunk of metal back. I’ve cooked multiple hundreds of pounds on the 34 pro. Had to recently replace the heating rod. Lots of cheep aftermarket parts for the original. Stored outside year round no cover. Love it!!!!

I concur. Traegers are only good for smoking. If you want searing capability I suggest the RecTeq bullseye the older model goes up to 75O and the new version will temps up to 1000. If I won this grill I would definitely be doing a brisket. As the Beastie boys said “slow and low that is the tempo”

Great review! I would smoke only my second brisket ever. The first one was a request from my then pregnant wife in 2005(our first daughter). We lived in a 4 story townhouse, 5 blocks North of Wrigley on Kenmore. My wife decided she was pregnancy craving smoked brisket, seemed an odd choice, so it was off to Paulina Meat Market for a brisket. You have to understand, the 4th floor was storage and our rooftop deck. Where my 3 burner Weber Genesis GAS grill was located, looking over 4 sets of EL tracks and Graceland Cemetery. I got my recipe, my rub, removed a grill grate, wedged the brisket on the grill(it may have been hanging off a bit on one side) and started the cooking process. Quickly changing out foil packages of wet wood chips probably 3 to 4 times per hour on the flavor bars and following my recommended recipe for my size of brisket. This process went on for at least 13 or 14 hours, walking up 2 or 3 flights of stairs each time to check on the temperature, smoke and wood chips. Finally, it was done and as it rested, all I hoped for was a smoke ring. When the moment came, SUCCESS, smoke ring, somewhat juicy, but not too shabby for my first time and on a Weber Gas Grill. Now for the opportunity to meet the craving need of my pregnant wife. I think she ate like maybe a piece and a half and said and I quote, “it’s delicious. Nice job. I think I want something sweet.”🤯 2015 moved to Mokena and I’m a lump charcoal guy and my Weber 26 inch kettle grill. Based on your review about smoking meats on a Traeger grill, I’d definitely revisit 2005 on Kenmore Ave. and give a brisket another shot, as a reminder to my wife as well as relive that story with our 2 daughters. Heck! Maybe she can finish 2 pieces this time.

As a previous Traeger user, I was skeptical about making the switch to Asmoke, but I must say I've been pleasantly surprised! The flavor that the wood pellets impart is just incredible - it's like having an authentic smokehouse right in my backyard. With the precise temperature control and the variety of cooking options, I feel like I've upped my grilling game significantly. Plus, the fact that it's battery-powered and portable has totally changed my tailgating experiences. I love the convenience of being able to grill anywhere without having to worry about a power source. The added bonus is the eco-friendliness of the wood pellets and the fact that it contributes to reducing waste. What a win! I'm definitely not looking back. #Asmoke

Great honest review. Much appreciated! Hell, I’m in Alabama so no chance of me driving up there to get a free grill but if I did I would smoke deer summer sausage on it . That’s the best brother. Make you some summer sausage ( out of venison or beef ) and smoke it. It’s the cat’s meow ! 👍 I’m about to head to Academy now and pick one up I guess. Was hoping the grill review would be better. Glad I still have my handy dandy propane grill buddy on the other side of the deck. Guess Inwill finish it off with it when needed. Take care and thanks again for the hard work and feedback brother. 🤙

I’ve been wanting to get a smoker for a while. Only have smoked a couple of times on a low end charcoal grill. Would love to smoke some drumsticks lollypops and wings.

I would totally smoke a brisket, i have yet to do it and have been putting it off because i feel like my charcoal smoker wouldn't keep at temperature long enough. Please please! Would love it lots!

I would cook a pork butt low and slow because I only have a gas grill right now and would love a treager! Thanks from southern Wisconsin 😊

Great video!! First thing would be ribs to warm it up. Then I’ll go for a brisket. I love my drums, but always wanted to get a Traeger.

I’d Cook Al pastor. First dish on a trompo with pineapple no doubt.
