Best Traeger Grill Accessories

Your time and money will be well spent purchasing these accessories. They are high-quality, offer good value for the money, and are very helpful.

Overall, these are some of the best Traeger accessories you should purchase alongside your new grill. Not only will these tools make grilling easier, but they'll also help with maintenance and the quality of the food you prepare.

1. Grill Cover

A grill cover might not seem all that important. However, if you think about it, you've just invested hundreds of dollars in your brand-new grill, so why would you not want to protect it in harsh weather? Whether it's rain, sun, hail, or snow, you should protect your Traeger grill.

If you happen to have an outdoor kitchen that is covered, we still recommend you cover your grill just as a good safety measure. If your grill is exposed to moisture, it could be prone to rusting more quickly.

2. Digital ARC Controller

The Traeger Digital ARC Controller allows you to set the temperature in five-degree increments and gives you more control over how precise the temperature is. Many Traeger grill owners rave about this tool. Plus, you can use the Keep Warm Mode to ensure your food is ready at the time you want it.

3. Traeger Insulation Blanket

In Bellingham and Burlington, Washington winters can get as low as 35 degrees Fahrenheit. If you notice that when you are grilling in the winter and your Traeger grill is working harder than it usually is then you might want to look into purchasing a Traeger Insulation Blanket.

The Traeger insulation blanket is ideal for preventing temperature swings that are caused by cold exterior temperatures. You'll notice you would have to add more wood pellets to keep the temperature up if you don't have an insulation blanket. By investing in an insulation blanket, you'll save money in the long run.

4. Traeger All-Natural Grill Cleaner

Build-up from grease in your grill is inevitable, and getting that grease off can be a struggle. Most importantly, if you don't clean your Traeger grill, you could be dealing with a serious fire hazard.

Regularly using the Traeger all-natural grill cleaner will significantly increase your grill's life and prevent any grease fires from occurring. The Traeger all-natural cleaner will cut through the grease and grime to help restore your grill without the worry of dealing with anything potentially hazardous.

5. Traeger Pellet Sensor

The Traeger pellet sensor makes sure that you never run out of pellets. The sensor is integrated with D2 WiFire-enabled grills to allow you to monitor the pellet level from the convenience of your smartphone. You'll receive notifications indicating when your pellets run low, so you'll always know when you need refueling.

6. Traeger Stainless Steel Grill Basket

The Traeger grill isn't only good for smoking the best brisket. When you use the Traeger stainless steel grill basket, you can easily cook chopped veggies, shrimp, or any other small item on the grill. The small holes stop the food from falling through while still allowing heat and smoke to circulate properly. We know you can get grill baskets anywhere. However, these Traeger grill baskets are built to last!

7. Pellet Storage Bin and Lid

There are so many different Traeger wood pellets to choose from. We highly recommend you opt-in to purchasing the Traeger pellet storage bin to help organize your hardwood pellets and keep them fresh. The bin and lid feature a locking mechanism that seals out moisture to ensure optimal flavor and burn.

8. Traeger Rubs

Whatever flavor your palate desires, Traeger has the rubs and sauces to deliver it. All of the flavors are worth testing and using on any type of poultry you're looking to toss on your Traeger grill. A few of the options include Fin & Feather Rub, Jerky Rub, Blackened Saskatchewan Rub, Anything Rub, Beef Rub, and so much more. Follow our blog at DeWaard & Bode to get the best recipes using Traeger rubs and sauces.

9. Traeger Cast Iron Reversible Griddle

The Traeger Cast Iron Reversible Griddle is a favorite among grill masters due to its adaptability and durability. It is pre-seasoned, double-sided, and distributes heat evenly. Using the ribbed side, you'll notice it can separate fat like a BBQ, and it's great for searing steak or grilling burgers and chicken. The smooth side is typically used for hash browns, pancakes, or making a mouth-watering grilled cheese sandwich.

10. Traeger Pellets

There are so many different pellets you could use and explore various flavors. However, we have found that Traeger pellets are superior to other brands as they burn well and are typically the most consistent. A few flavors include Brisket Blend Wood Pellets, Mesquite BBQ Wood Pellets, Cherry BBQ Wood Pellets, Pecan BBQ Wood Pellets, Apple BBQ Wood Pellets, and so much more. Either flavor you go with, we're sure you'll be happy!
