Massive Temp Swings

It barely fits 2 rack of ribs and will swing temps like crazy! I’m talking about 50 degrees +/- temp swings, it’s awful! Save the heartache and get a Recteq.

Great For The Campsite

Perfect size for around the campsite. Light enough to transport. Broke a knob on first fold up sauce the wheels are too close so bre careful with those.

Love It!

Love it. Other friends and family have had one for years, just now getting on board.

Always Broken

I have owned this grill for just over 1 year and have had to replace the temperature probe multiple times along with the control panel going out once and unsurprisingly it is acting up once again. Even when it is functioning correctly it will not hold a steady temperature and will not get hot enough to sear. I will be switching over to recteq very soon.

No Jokin, Just Smokin

The Traeger Tailgater is the perfect addition to the backyard setup and was easy to put together and fire up. I also love the compact mobility of this model and how easy it is to use. First time out made some of the most delicious chicken. No jokin just smokin.

Perfect For Everyday Use

Perfect in every way - didn’t but this to tailgate but wanted a smaller pellet grill for the deck that works for a retired couple. Get hot fast and cooks perfectly. Going to make great Xmas gifts for the adult kids!

No Hassle Grilling

I bought my tailgate pit about 4 years ago. We just love the simplicity and effective operation of this pit. It's great for chickens, ribs, sausage, steaks and even a medium turkey. We use our pit on the weekends and love it!

Mini Brisket Commander

Just incase you were wondering, yes you CAN cook a Full Brisket in it. Be careful of the drippings, but it came out perfect.

Don’t Recommend Buying.

I’ve had mine 1 year. It’s been used less than a dozen times and the control panel doesn’t work. The temperature knob does whatever it wants ehen I turn it. If I turn it down the set point might go down, but it’s more likely to actually go up. Only way I can set a temperature is on the app. The grill is a piece of junk snd I’d never buy it again. Oh if you’re looking to get a smoke taste from the grill, forget about it. You’ll definitely need to buy a flavor bar if you want any smoke flavor.

Perfect Size For Home Or The Road

Perfect Size for Home or the Road. Portable and great for the backyard or the neighbor's beachhouse when you are in charge of meals. The small cooking chamber holds the heat well and the hopper box is just the right size for overnight cooks like brisket, pork butts, or beef ribs. Holds the tempertaure well. I like this one so much I take it as one of the grills in my competition cooking aresenal. Terrific price for the versatility.

Disappointment

Doesnt seem like it's a target grill. Not made to last. Mine is 2 years and the plastic lid hinges both broke and the legs are wobbly. I really don't like the all electronic controls. Just doesn't work like the bigger Traeger.

Piece Of Junk

So glad I got this for free from zyn. Cause I wouldn’t pay a dime for it. It’s a piece of junk. The manual you get is useless. It’s won’t hold temp for anything. It garbage. Do not buy the tailgatter

Received incentive

Junk

Broke out of the box. No power to unit. Not impressed with this supposed great product of a traeger. Glad I did not buy a large one

Cannot Recommend The Tailgater 20

Does not maintain set temperature. It has always run about 35 degrees hotter than what was set and now no matter what you set, it jumps to 245 degrees and stays there. I cannot recommend a product that cost this much and fails this miserably.
