Well did the Traeger cajun broil today. Came out pretty good. Id cook the potatos differently as they were dry, but we quartered large baby reds. Small baby reds might not have gotten rubbery.

The grill was working fine ,i had it set to 475f. Put the taters on for about 25 mins, because its cold out i usually turn the set temp down so it doesnt try to ramp up before i open the lid. At the 25 min mark i turned it to 200f and put the corn and kielbasa on the rack shut the lid and turned it back up to 475f. It didn't recover and would not go over 400f, so i turned set temp to 500, still wouldn't go over 400f. Now im at a loss, its NEVER done this before. So, i shut it off and restarted. Big mistake. In 30 mins of trying to restart it smoked and kept give slow start notifications and finaly shut down. I pulled the grate and drip pan out and restarted to confirm the auger was turning, it was as was the blower fan. I put it back together and let it run the ignite sequence. It ignited. I had grill set to 500f it went to 400f and wouldn't go higher. So I'm going to purge the auger and make sure it's clear, refill and fire again to see what goes on. I've cooked at this outside temp before so I'm kinda at a loss.
