Anyone else addicted to their smoker right now?

2w ago·1 min read

I picked up a Traeger about 3 months ago and I literally cannot stop smoking briskets. My neighbors probably hate me at this point. I've done like 15 briskets, 20 racks of ribs, pulled pork for days. My freezer is completely full of meat. Wife is threatening to make me get a second freezer in the garage which honestly might not be the worst idea. Anyone else go through this phase or is it just me?

Brisket is the gateway drug. Next thing you know you'll be doing 14 hour smokes at 2am just to dial in the bark. Welcome to the addiction.

A Traeger is such a slippery slope. I picked mine up two years ago thinking I'd use it once a month. I'm literally out there every weekend now. My wife jokes that I love it more than her at this point.

That's the dream right there. I'd love to have time to dial in a smoker like that, but between the three kids and work it's tough. Sounds like you found your thing though.

15 briskets in 3 months is insane, I'm jealous. Once my kid is old enough to appreciate good smoked meat I'm totally getting a Traeger. Your neighbors will get over it.

The neighbors probably aren't complaining too much if you're sharing the goods. Keep smoking friend.
