Rated 8.3/10, #2 of 5 in our WiFi Pellet Grills ranking. Made for set-it-and-check-your-phone smoking.
The Traeger Ironwood 885 next to the two pellet grills rated closest to it.
Listings usually count the upper rack too, so measure your biggest cook against the main grate.
Room for a proper cookout: two briskets, or a few racks of ribs and the sides, on one load of pellets.
Low and slow at 165°F for brisket, and up to 500°F when you want to grill hot and fast.
Check the pit and the meat from the couch, and on most apps nudge the temperature too. Gold on a 12-hour brisket that starts at 5 a.m.
The big change is the leash: with the WiFi app you start the brisket at dawn, go back to bed and check the pit from your phone.
Weekends with friends, eight people without stress. 885 sq in gives you room for two pork butts or several racks of ribs at once, enough for a backyard full of friends.
The listing gives no hopper size, so keep a bag of pellets next to it for long cooks.
These points come from the seller's own listing, so read them as the brand's claims.
Assembly day. Plan an hour or two with a second pair of hands. Most manuals ask for a first burn-in before the first cook.
Its spot. Level ground, a few feet from the wall and anything that can melt, an outlet in reach. A cover keeps the pellets and the controller dry between cooks.
Buyers give it 4.5/5, a strong record, right on this ranking's 4.5 average. And with 594 reviews behind it, that number is hard to argue with.

Feeding more people? The Pit Boss Navigator 6-Series Vertical lists 2,224 sq in of cooking space (9.2/10).
Steak night matters more than brisket? The Pit Boss 500 FB2 adds a direct-flame sear (7.9/10).
Need one for the campsite? The Traeger Ranger is built to travel (9.3/10).
Our favourite thing about the Traeger Ironwood 885 is 885 sq in of cooking space, closely followed by a stated 165–500°F range. 594 buyers back that up with 4.5/5, about as reassuring as a review record gets. Our main reservation: no word on the warranty. We'd pick it if you cook for a crowd, or for the whole street; otherwise, put it next to the Traeger Pro 780 first.
Before the Traeger Ironwood 885 lands on your porch, check the outlet near the spot: it needs a grounded outdoor outlet within cord reach, and a long extension cord is a poor substitute.
885 sq in is stated, often the main grate and the upper rack added together. Measure your biggest cook (two briskets? six racks of ribs?) and lay it out in our grate area planner.
Look for a grounded, outdoor-rated outlet; if you need an extension, use a short heavy-gauge outdoor one.
No hopper size is stated. Keep a bag of pellets next to the grill for long cooks and check the level now and then.
Plan to vacuum the ash out of the fire pot every few cooks, and keep the grease tray clean: that is where most flare-ups start.

Pick the Traeger Pro 780 if you want our higher-rated option (9.3/10), with a bigger hopper (18 lb) and a meat probe in the box; stay with the Traeger Ironwood 885 for more cooking space (885 sq in) and a wider stated range (165–500°F).
We rate it 8.3/10 (very good), #2 of 5 in our WiFi pellet grill ranking. It is based on 594 buyer reviews averaging 4.5/5 and the specifications stated in the listing.
Its listing states 885 sq in of cooking space, a stated 165–500°F range, WiFi control from your phone, 6-in-1 cooking and dual-wall insulation. Those are the seller's figures; how it holds temperature in your own wind and weather can't be read from a listing.
How much you really cook: 885 sq in is stated, often the main grate and the upper rack added together. Measure your biggest cook (two briskets? six racks of ribs?) and lay it out in our grate area planner. Power at the spot: look for a grounded, outdoor-rated outlet; if you need an extension, use a short heavy-gauge outdoor one. Pellets and long cooks: no hopper size is stated. Keep a bag of pellets next to the grill for long cooks and check the level now and then. Cleaning: plan to vacuum the ash out of the fire pot every few cooks, and keep the grease tray clean: that is where most flare-ups start.
