What Should be the First Thing I Grill?

[mybubbles]

So someone is buying my Big Green Egg this afternoon and I'll be getting my Traeger Lil Tex. Any suggestions on what should be the first thing I cook on it?

Gotta be bacon! Just cook up the whole package..if you don't you're going to wish you did!

So how exactly do you cook bacon on a pellet grill? I'll probably want to follow suit when my MAK arrives sometime in June.

Bacon! You can't go wrong with bacon. First of all, it doesn't take a long time to achieve your first success. Secondly, it just tastes soo good coming off your pellet grill. After that It won't be long before you try some pig candy.

I just lay the pieces across the grates and let it cook. The cool thing about cooking it on the pellet grill is is that it won't curl up like it does in a pan. It stays fairly flat..great for sandwiches!
Cooking it at 250-275 works great for me.

What flavour pellets and how long do you cook it? My husband loves bacon That might calm him down when he finds out that I bought the Traeger.
