Traeger Ironwood 650
The best pellet grill — WiFIRE smart control, D2 drivetrain, and Super Smoke mode for competition-level results.
Our Review
The Traeger Ironwood 650 is the pellet grill that turns backyard cooks into pitmasters. Its D2 Direct Drive drivetrain maintains precise temperature within 5°F, and WiFIRE connectivity lets you monitor and adjust from your phone anywhere. Super Smoke mode maximizes wood-fired flavor at low temperatures, and the downdraft exhaust system ensures even heat across all 650 sq in of cooking space. If you want set-it-and-forget-it smoking with smart features, Traeger wrote the book.
