 I don't know that it really gets any better. You can ignore them for a couple hours. You know, it doesn't get any better than Traeger's wood-fired flavor. You get to mix the pellets, too, if you want. There's sort of a cherry pecan blend that I like to customize myself. Yeah, it's nice. Trust me. The cooking possibilities are endless on a Traeger. Don't forget this weekend's sliders.
