My 1 Star and I have been in a relationship for just over a week now, and things are getting pretty serious. My Traeger couldn't perform like I needed her to, and now she's someone else's problem.
I've done two cooks so far... A few racks of baby backs on Saturday and a 14 lb turkey on Sunday. I'm still getting used to the controller, particularly when setting it up to finish when the IT reaches a set point yet still have it adjust temperatures at certain times. I'll figure that out.
My biggest complaints about my old Traeger were the flameouts and temp swings. The MAK on the other hand hangs around 170 degrees consistently while on smoke and holds temps within 5-10 degree increments while on a set temp. It is awesome and I wish I had known about MAK sooner!
