They wouldn&#8217;t be able to turn on the grill, but they can mess with you while you&#8217;re setting the temperature if they&#8217;re mischievous or curious like mine.<\/p>\n<h2>The Smoke<\/h2>\n<p>Coming from the world of propane grills, the size of the Woodridge Pro really struck me. You could easily smoke two full-sized pork bellies at the same time, and I hope to very soon. As it was, my usual Costco pork belly loads up half the smoker, which is more than enough to feed some friends and have leftovers for myself.<\/p>\n<p>It couldn\u2019t be easier. Set the temperature, keep the hopper filled, and everything else is managed automatically. Instead of worrying about vents or fan speeds or fuel, I typically just hang out in the backyard, get some work done, play with the dog, and focus on the meat.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Overhead view of Traeger Woodridge Pro pellet smoker showing a closeup of the hopper full of pellets\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/67e85162bf7c1acf579d82b1\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/Traeger-Woodridge-Pro-(hopper)-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Brad-Bourque.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd isTgyB fNaHcW caption__credit\">Photograph: Brad Bourque<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>I\u2019ve found myself more willing to do all the extra steps that really make a meal great. I\u2019m marinating and brining ahead of time, getting rub recipes from friends, making pickled onions instead of buying them. Stuff that sounds simple but can be easy to skip if you\u2019re feeling lazy. Knowing I have a delicious chunk of meat on the smoker motivates me to go the extra mile.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, I&#8217;ve made or contributed to some of my best meals ever over the last couple of months, and brought my friends together to enjoy them. We&#8217;ve eaten tender pork belly tacos coated in a savory and spiced rub carefully refined by my neighbor, juicy pork chops with a crusty exterior, coppa sandwiches on a friend&#8217;s homemade focaccia. In between, I&#8217;ve enjoyed luxurious leftovers like fried rice, smoked egg salad, and simple sandwiches. More than just a grill, the Woodridge has become a part of my kitchen and cooking routine more quickly and seamlessly than I would&#8217;ve imagined.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I also wanted to call out one oddity I noticed in testing, which is that dogs seem very attracted to the big knob on the Woodridge\u2019s control panel.
