Great video and choice of MUSIC! I don't need any coffee this morning to put this together!

[@alfiend331]

Just bought this same Traeger this week and was dreading putting it together. Your video is a huge help. Will be tacking this project later this evening! Thanks.

[@bandg777]

Thanks for making this video. It made the assembly of my grill a breeze.

[@canutorodriquez4844]

I bought a Tailgater 20 about 2 years ago and fell in love with it! But then I saw the Pro 34 and knew I had to have it too..took me 2 more years but I finally got it today, and your video helped a lot!

[@TheBrewQ]

Awesome! I’m glad I’m helping shed some light on these products. I use mine a lot and love it. Cheers!

[@DA9enthusiast]

My mother just got me one for my birthday. Putting it together right now. Just in time for Easter/birthday! 🤘🏻

[@robertseely3286]

Thanks for the help. I just bought mine today and I sure hope it looks like yours when I'm done!

[@mopfactr1]

Great vid now i know what to expect...as of this post my grill is still in its box on my back porch cant wait to assemble and try out

[@evansjanvier5573]

Great video, just got mine yesterday, can't wait to put it together...

[@TheBrewQ]

Nice! You are going to love it. If you find it isn't smoking enough, look up how to adjust the "P" settings which is basically a setting for how often the auger feeds the fire pot in increments. That can help if your elevation is affecting your smoke. Cheers!

[@bjpeak-graham167]

You made it look so easy to assemble and to organize the assembly. I am sure I will have to watch about 40 hrs of this video to get to the end. Thank you and wish me well. LOL !! Delivery is tomorrow. I can't wait. Thought it was going to be a nightmare. Now you have given me confidence and it will only be a bad dream ending once I turn this baby on.

[@TheBrewQ]

It’s worth the effort! 🙂

[@sideshowtink]

Of course, I love to watch grill assemblies especially when the builder makes it look easy....That’s a beauty! Enjoy cooking on it!!!

[@TheBrewQ]

It was a pain to edit but fun to put together. Cheers!

[@Dts1953]

You did a brilliant job and a very enjoyable video . Can’t wait to see You using it! All the best my mate.

[@TheBrewQ]

Dts1953 cheers! So far so good!

[@WreckedBrewery]

Bought my Traeger back in 2014/15 I think. The family loves it! All food coming from that is soooo much better :)

[@TheBrewQ]

So far I really love using it! Cheers!

[@shadowrayz]

Very nice! That looks like a really good pellet stove. Cheers

[@TheBrewQ]

Cheers, bro!

[@michaelskipworth6433]

Thank you much appreciated.

[@TheBrewQ]

No problem! Cheers!

[@stev8468]

great now I have to put mine together

[@TheBrewQ]

put that bad boy to work! lol

[@irishgroundhogbrewer3066]

That’s got a serious amount of cooking area😁. I’ve got a Myron Mixon my dad gave me. I love pellet grill cooking. I’ve been toying with getting a Yoder 640. I can’t wait to see your impressions. Cheers 🍻

[@TheBrewQ]

It does indeed! I still love it. It’s great for when I can’t babysit a bbq pit. Cheers!

[@thunderwagn]

She's a beaut!

[@TheBrewQ]

I love it! Cheers!

[@dkh526]

Thanks brother! I’m not sure I could’ve assembled this in a timely manner with the instruction booklet alone.

[@TheBrewQ]

Glad it helped! Cheers!

[@jeffmutter2286]

Finally joined the pellet World I see...everyone does eventually...I have an Akorn I have not used in over a year

[@TheBrewQ]

I plan to keep using the AKORN :)

[@wackzingo]

The only thing I wasn't sure of is of the grease tray was supposed to be on that lip on the left side to make it slope. The issue is heat rises so that side is much hotter than the right side so you will get inconsistent heat.

[@TheBrewQ]

Yeah, the fire pot cover is supposed to help spread the heat more evenly but one side does get hotter for sure. Just have to rotate the meats. Cheers!

[@mclark2330]

Great video man, I’m picking one up next weekend!

[@SiMoEsAmBOy]

I jus got same one delivered at 730 am . I’m like this shit ain’t assembled . U tube it .. great job u make it look so easy I’m scared to open da box 📦.. an get stuck I saw u sing alen keys I don’t know where they at I’m like Daamn

[@johnandrewcook79]

Thank you! This was a helpful video (on mute).

[@TheBrewQ]

😂🫡

[@karaofreedom8503]

12:18 “good boy”

[@TheBrewQ]

So far it has been one 😂

[@jms2981]

Is that from QVC, I ordered the blue also...but haven't put it together yet. Cool posting thanks!

[@TheBrewQ]

This one was directly from Traeger. It has been running like a champ to this day. Absolutely love mine. Cheers and happy grilling and smoking!

[@hasses4141]

Nice assembly video ! and the Music really nice, keep up the good videos. Cheers from Sweden !!

[@BoyX138]

Great video 👍🏼. How long did it take you to set up? I’m hoping to get up early on Thanksgiving day and get mine running lol

[@TheBrewQ]

Not long at all. About an hour tbh. Hope the turkey went well!

[@BoyX138]

@@TheBrewQ Thank you! Yes it took me about an hour. Had plenty of time to season the smoker. The Turkey came out great! My father said I should smoke some pork ribs and invite him over lol

[@roberttorrence4799]

Nices video thanks for that were did you buy your it

[@TheBrewQ]

This was actually shipped directly to me from Traeger

[@TheChipper3786]

Why the pellet smoker? And how is the ceramic akorn holding up?

[@TheBrewQ]

I like variety and also had the opportunity to spotlight and demo this one from Traeger. The ceramic AKORN is still going strong. I use it a lot for searing and direct fire cooks. I enjoy both grills.

[@TheChipper3786]

The Brew-Q thanks for the reply you seem to be one step ahead of all my hobbies brewing and bbq in looking at a pellet grill now because there isn’t much room on the akorn. Anyway thank you for making your channel on such great topics

[@raftislander]

Can u update since the new packing and book is different

[@TheBrewQ]

Update? I don’t have the newer version of this grill if anything has changed. Not sure I understand the question

[@RodneyThomas]

Just assembled mine today. Anybody have any tips for a new member of the traegor family?

[@TheBrewQ]

Keep that fire pot vacuumed out between cooks, never use anything other than a wood scraper on the porcelain grates, and keep it covered if left out even on a patio if possible.

[@RodneyThomas]

@@TheBrewQ lmao!

[@sanchezma20]

do you have preference over Traeger vs Pitboss kamado?

[@TheBrewQ]

I prefer both, but if you had to choose, I would go with a Kamado over a pellet smoker any day of the week. Here’s why, a kamado is a very diverse choice as in you can direct fire cook, bake, high heat sear, and smoke in them. The pellet smoker is mainly designed for smoker but it can cook as well but not to the degree that a Kamado can.

[@sanchezma20]

Thanks Brew Q. This was what I had been thinking. I'm leaning more towards Kamado. Good to hear your opinion. Much appreciated!

[@saabysaabinsky2785]

I was waiting to see how you got the grill up on it's legs all by yourself...but after you put on the last leg...the grill magically appears on its legs! Awww

[@TheBrewQ]

Yeah, I did it slowly and cautiously lol

[@matthewmyrie7143]

So no cooking shelf?

[@TheBrewQ]

It has one but you have to buy it separate

[@roygherbil3276]

I would much rather build this than Ikea furniture!!

[@TheBrewQ]

Haha touché!

[@rgeorge9260]

Here's a REAL review... Bought mine mid-November. Cold as heck in Missouri, but I figured I had it covered by buying the Traeger insulation blanket. Not quite... The smoker directions say to leave the smoker on 'smoke' mode for 4 minutes (with the smoker lid open), before closing the lid, and setting to the desired temperature. I tried this for over 2 HOURS!!! Each time, the smoker went out every GD time, giving a "low temperature" error! Smoker temp MIGHT get to 120 degrees, and then is would go to 118, 112, 110, 108... and I'd get a 'Lerr' (Low temp error!). There was no wind, whatsoever! To "season" the smoker at high temp, you first need to get it to "smoke mode", and this was IMPOSSIBLE! The smoker would die in smoke mode every time! Fuc* smoke mode! Finally, during smoke mode, I repeatedly turned the smoker on and off, each time returning to "smoke" mode, trying to get the smoker temp higher and higher. Once I got the smoker to 120 degrees, I shut the lid, and turned the temperature to high. Then the smoker seemed to work! Smoke mode may work fine in spring / summer - I cant say - but if you expect it to work in winter time, you are HOSED!!! And it is only like 40 degrees here in Missouri today!

[@TheBrewQ]

Sounds you might have gotten a faulty unit or the P setting needs to be adjusted. Did you reach out to Traeger to troubleshoot the unit?

[@carlosgurrola7158]

Good video, annoying noise (music)

[@masterdilligaff]

My head is thinking "Pfft. This is easy. I'm not gonna pay Home Depot $120 to assemble it for me!!!" while my back and knees are screaming "STOP BEING SO CHEAP!!! Pay the $120 and enjoy the first 2 days smoking meat instead of being laid up in bed covering in Biofreeze and popping Aleve every 4 hours!!!"

[@TheBrewQ]

😂🤣 but you feel like a rockstar later knowing you did it yourself! Lol

[@fredhill9816]

the music makes this video unbearable

[@steinh]

And here I was about to complement his choice of music, rather than to add the usual electronica you'll find on other videos.

[@austinrichards1698]

Fred Hill if only there was a way to mute the audio and just watch with no sound...

[@Yamaha350w]

Shits annoying asf

[@TheBrewQ]

I like it lol. Then again, I made the video ;)

[@fabianfinney247]

I like the music...makes time go by much faster to me

[@Dts1953]

You did a brilliant job and a very enjoyable video . Can’t wait to see You using it! All the best my mate.

[@TheBrewQ]

Cheers!
