A buddy of mine was having issues with his Pro Series 22, “blew up” on him, when he was trying to light it… he was gonna toss it when I said I’d give it a look if he was throwing it away…. Turns out it wasn’t cleaned much (if ever). I wish I had taken before pictures, cause it was the worst I’ve ever seen. I’m not surprised it shot a fireball out the lid! It had about 2 inches of ash in the bottom of the barrel and smoke pot, and about a half inch of crust/grease built up on the drip tray and surrounding areas! I deep cleaned it thoroughly, emptied and primed the auger (the hopper was 80% sawdust and 20% swelled pellets) and it works like a charm. Goes great with my…. Pro Series 22 lol.
TLDR: Got a free Traeger from a buddy cause it was “broken”
