Might as well jump in. Just pulled the trigger on RT 700

The old Traeger is dyeing . After a LOT of research, We're Moving on up! Just pulled the trigger tonight. Cover, Matt, and grill plates also.

Lumber jack pellets in the garage (oops I broke the Traeger warranty ) . Came to Rec Tec for more consistent temp regulation, and the 6 year warranty.
The 700 is overkill for my family, but at 6'2" 250lbs... I say, go big or go home. LOL. Thanks for the add to the forum.

Hey @SlayRide great choice going Rec Tec and picking the RT-700. It's a heck of a grill and I'm sure you're going to love it.

Be sure to post pictures once you receive it!

Welcome to the group!
Love my 700. It is big, but I love that it allows me the opportunity to cook most of our sides on the pit too

Congrats. I too got the 700 and thought it was overkill. That didn’t last long the more I use it and get comfortable with it I will make my sides on it whether it be Mac n cheese, beans etc.

LOL!
About 20 years ago, my wife and I were at a resort in the Poconos for our honeymoon. While on stage for some newlywed game, the host guy made the same joke to us. I winked at him and said, "Well I guess that means you best not turn your back on a Texan one way or the other."
The guy was speechless and the crowd laughed for several minutes. LOL

Same here, Traeger after many years died and did my research and have no regrets. They key item for us was having the cold smoker box option which we added. No regrets, and while large for just two of us it did come down to "go big or go home". Well made although the alarm is a disappointment but hopefully they get that fixed.
