So I got me a traeger Jr from Costco. Have used it a few times, makes fantastic food and I don't seem to have any problems like others.
I've made a few delicious things, however my smoking knowledge is weak. Drastically over cooked some steaks tonight. I guess I'm looking for a few pointers.
I want to mostly do a true smoke, and that's how I killed the steaks. Smoked them at 180 for 4 hours, then turned up heat and grilled them. Just overcooked, and that's on me.
I bought a meat thermometer afterwards, I could've done better if I had it.
Any tips on how to do a true smoke, slow and low, with minimal high temp cooking?
Thanks,
Claws
