Hi all,

Just purchased a Traeger Lil' Tex Elite this week and assembly should happen later today or Friday. Anxious to try my first smoke this weekend!

Welcome aboard! You should have fun playing with your new toy, remember asks lots of questions and if there are no pictures it didn't happen ;)

If I had just received my grill a few things would happen:

I wouldn't be typing here
It wouldn't be waiting until tomorrow for assembly
by tomorrow it would be burned and seasoned
Friday would be the first cook, maybe a fattie to help season things a bit

Welcome to the site and an excellent beginning to a pellet enhanced journey!

LOL Phrett - you don't cut any slack, do you?

Welcome to the forum Chop. I'm a newbie as well. There is plenty to learn from the experienced group here. Enjoy!

Thanks everyone. The assembly went very smoothly and so far I am really impressed with the build quality of the traeger which was a little nerve wracking reading some of the comments online. I did a solid hour burn in tonight and everything looks to be working well and the mesquite smelled great. Can't wait to see how it tastes tomorrow! I've got a flat iron steak and a cross rib roast to try for the Iowa vs. Michigan State game!
