SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Traeger, Inc. ("Traeger") (NYSE: COOK), the innovators and category leaders in wood-pellet grills, has raised the bar for outdoor cooking yet again with the launch of the all-new Ironwood and Ironwood XL grills. The fully reimagined Ironwood series puts the customer experience at the forefront, delivering unrivaled flavor and next-level consistency through a series of upgrades based on Traeger's most recent innovations.

TRAEGER GRILLS DELIVERS THE NEXT GENERATION OF WOOD-PELLET GRILLS WITH THE ALL-NEW IRONWOOD® SERIES

Last year's debut of the Timberline grill introduced a new standard of flavor capable in a wood-pellet grill and the new Ironwood series brings the same, transcendent wood-fired flavor. Now featuring innovations like Traeger's unparalleled Smart Combustion technology, FreeFlow Firepot and a touchscreen user interface, the all-new Ironwood lineup is where revolutionary technology meets the neighborhood backyard cookout. The innovative upgrades enable consumers to master gourmet control in every cook, with personalized customization options that deliver deeper smoky flavors and perfectly cooked delicacies.

"Innovation has been the lifeblood of the Traeger brand for the last 30 years and continues to be the North Star we look to when announcing new products. If we're not innovating, we're falling behind and doing a disservice to the 'Traegerhood.'" said Jeremy Andrus, CEO of Traeger Grills. "The new Ironwood series showcases some of the most innovative, technological advancements ever put into a grill, at an affordable price point that will make it a juggernaut in the grill market. A new bar has been set and we could not be more excited to announce the new Ironwood series to our loyal following and beyond."

The all-new Ironwood and Ironwood XL grills give anyone the confidence to cook delicious, wood-fire meals, while experiencing the evolution of outdoor cooking through the following new features, advancements, and upgrades:

• ULTIMATE WOOD FIRE FLAVOR – Super Smoke Mode and Traeger Downdraft Exhaust® team up to add unrivaled wood-fired flavor to anything you cook. FreeFlow™ Firepot promotes increased smoke circulation for the best flavor.
• PRECISION TEMPERATURE CONTROL – Traeger's unparalleled new Smart Combustion™ technology maintains incredibly precise temperatures to ensure perfect results every time. Fully insulated dual-wall construction protects against temperature fluctuations and the EvenFlow™ Heat Shield ensures even heat distribution to keep results consistent anywhere on the grill, in any weather.
• SET-IT-AND-FORGET-IT® – The sleek touchscreen interface brings new ease through intuitive control and makes setting your cooking temperature as easy as turning on an oven.
• ALWAYS IN CONTROL – Thanks to Traeger's WiFIRE® TECHNOLOGY, users can monitor and control the grill from anywhere, anytime by using the Traeger App. Whether on the couch or on the go, WiFIRE will allow for the adjusting of grill temperatures, monitoring food, set timers & alerts, browse over 1,600 wood-fired recipes, learn from Traeger pros, and more—all right from a smartphone. The grill can be controlled hands free via an Alexa® or Google Home® device using voice command. Traeger has thought of everything. It's almost too easy.
• EPIC FLAVOR, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES – The Ironwood lets you grill, smoke, bake, roast, braise, & BBQ all on one grill. From slow-smoked brisket to glorious roasts, epic game day snacks, and decadent desserts, it's all fair game for the Ironwood.
• MAKE IT YOURS – The Ironwood can be set up to best suit any cooking style. Traeger's ModiFIRE™ accessories allow for the easy add and swap out of different cooking surfaces to the grill grates. The new Pop-And-Lock™ (P.A.L) accessory rail makes it easy to configure shelves, storage bins, accessory hooks, and more for full customization.
• NO-HASSLE CLEAN UP – The EZ-Clean™ Grease & Ash Keg makes cleaning a Traeger grill make cleaning a Traeger grill simpler than ever, grease and ash now collect in one easily accessible place for no-hassle post-cook cleanup.
• NEVER RUN OUT OF FUEL UNEXPECTEDLY – The Traeger Pellet Sensor alerts when pellets are low so there will never be an instance of running out of pellets and the food will always be fueled by all-natural hardwood pellets for incredible flavor.

The new Ironwood and Ironwood XL represent the next evolution of Traeger's premium product offering, coming in at $1,799 and $1,999. Both grills will be available at www.Traeger.com and key retailers across the US and Canada.

Curious if there’s any feedback on this. I would imagine the controls and such are the same as the new Timberline series so any bugs should be worked out.

I just saw a Meat Church brisket video and the grill looked like it was producing a lot of smoke at 200.

I'm interested in getting the Ironwood XL. There is nothing wrong with my current Ironwood 650, but I wouldn't mind more cooking space.

Too bad that 20% off coupon that Traeger sent out at the end of last year expired on 12/31. I just need somewhat of a discount to make the jump..

Maybe Memorial Day, Father’s Day, etc will bring out a discount.

I'm looking at the XL for my first traeger. I'm waiting until the state fair in August. Hopefully by then it will have been around long enough that if there are issues with it, we will know. I also want to buy at the Fair because they usually throw in a shelf, cover, and some bags of pellets for free. Had a char-broil digital electric which was gifted to me by a coworker. Worked great for a year until it broke in a matter that meant jury rigged repair involving popping and replacing rivets.

I also saw a youtube video that said the drip tray was not stainless steel. Any truth to this? Makes me wonder if it would be harder to clean?

It is basically the same as the new timberline minus the side burner, SS grates etc and cabinet. Also the lid/headroom is a bit less. Same functions and controls though. The headroom is a slight downgrade, but the grates are negligible imo. The enamel coated stuff is pretty much perfected these days.

I actually thought that was a side burner over to the right but its just a fancy hopper lid lol

 

[CMTiger]

Looks like it doesn’t come with the wireless Meater probes either

It appears as though they are an add on if you want. $230 for two compatible MEATER probes.

Yeah that’s what it looked like when I researched as well.

 

[Murphy's Law]

I think the side burner will be an add on as well.

 

[BobbyQ]

If anyone doesn't need all the bells & whistles I just saw the older version Ironwood 650 for $849 at my local Home Depot. Now that's a deal.

Agreed.
