I was thinking about buying some Emergency Wool Blankets to wrap or drape over my Smoker for cold weather use. Has anyone done this and or does anyone have any thoughts about it? Pro or con?
Thanks

Yep. Im in the same position. I got my 780 in June, so i havent had it through a winter. Im going to start with a fire blanket. Then maybe upgrade to a nice fitted one next year. But if it does well without it. Great!I was looking for something more affordable. A Fire Blanket sound better.
yes! Make it somewhat more efficient on pellet consumption when ambient temps are low.Okay not much of a grilling expert, but is the idea to insulate the grill so it doesn't have to burn more pellets to keep the temperature up?
This looks exactly like my Ironwood just yours has less smoke stainingPicked up a welders blanket from Harbor Freight- roughly $30 and used heavy duty magnets to keep it from blowing off. Blanket works great in cold weather
I need a welding blanket anyway as I've gotten into that lately and tired of dragging stuff outside to weld.yes! Make it somewhat more efficient on pellet consumption when ambient temps are low.

Got the same thing from Arnold Motor Supply, $30, good to 1000f. Gonna use it tonight gonna be 10f overnight.
Looks like the manufactured blankets never made it to the 885 sized Traeger grills before the maker "disappeared?"
It is probably not too necessary here in the Phoenix area, but it does get cool - meaning the low 30s.
