- Pro 780 Bronze
So my daughter won a sales contest at work and one of the choices for her prize was a Traeger Pro780, which she ordered and gave to me for Christmas. So far this "free grill" has cost me:
- Bought at least 10 bags of pellets (various blends) which cost me a few hundred (many of them are Traeger brand but I am starting to just get Pit Boss now)
- Pro 780 front shelf for $70 or so
- Pellet sensor for $60
- Numerous accessories (liners, hooks, silicon brush, etc)...figure about a $100 or so
- Sous Vide for $125 (never on my radar until this)
- Inkbird wifi remote thermometer (didn't like it so I am giving it to my son-in-law) cost $100
- Fireboard 2 with probes set me back around $300
And to top it off...I am already wondering if I should just sell this one "slightly used" and upgrade to a Timberline!
So much for a "free grill".
