Features & Benefits - Talking Points
The Woodridge Series is designed to be the new entry point grill for Traeger. Careful care has been given to the Woodridge design so that it upholds the same quality that Traeger's premium grills are known for while being able to be set at a lower price, making it an affordable entry point for those looking to get into wood pellet grilling.
- VALUE: Best price point per square inch of any grill in Traeger's lineup.
-
CAPACITY:
Grill grate depth allows you to cook large cuts of meat like brisket or a Thanksgiving turkey. This is something other grills in the same price range sometimes can't accomplish.-
Increased space between main and upper grill grates: More space for users to flip burgers or turn chicken wings without worrying about bumping into the top rack.
Other wood pellet grills claim high sq. in. cooking capacity, but that comes at the cost vertical real estate—often their tiers are so close together all you can cook on them is bacon or jerky.

TECHNOLOGY:
- Full-color digital controller display with a dot-matrix display and capacitive touch buttons, which recognizes electrical signals from a user's finger and registers it to the touched area of the device.
- Compatible with Traeger Wireless Meat Thermometers.

FUNCTIONALITY:
- Free-flow firepot has holes in it to allow ash and sawdust to flow freely from the firepot into the grease and ash keg, the same as our premier line of touchscreen grills.
-
Drip tray has full coverage in the cooking cavity and has a steep slope, which helps prevent flare-ups that sometimes happen in other grills with drip trays that don't offer full coverage.
-
EZ-Clean Grease & Ash Keg features a keg cover (aka EmberShield or Ash Cap) to prevent residual sparks in the keg from flying up into the grill cavity and potentially starting a grill fire. The design allows for easy removal for cleaning and only one way to place it back in the grill, keeping installation simple.
-
Staging hooks provide a place to hang grill grates when cleaning or when the upper grate isn't in use.
-
TEMPERATURE ACCURACY:
- Woodridge Series grills use a 3-inch RTD instead of a thermocouple. The RTD probe was perfected in Traeger's earlier grills, bringing the same temperature consistency as a thermocouple.

Differentiating Between Woodridge Series Models
The Woodridge Series consists of three models, the Woodridge being the base model of the three:

Additional differences between the three Woodridge Series grills include:
- Woodridge Pro has a folding side shelf and a bottom shelf.
- Woodridge Elite has a cabinet and an electric side burner.
- Woodridge Pro and Elite have two additional buttons on the controller: Super Smoke and Keep Warm. This is the first time Traeger is offering Super Smoke on a model under $1,000!

Service Parts
1 | Upper Grill Grate | 10 |
P.A.L. Pop-And-Lock Accessory Rail Coming from the Timberline, Ironwood, and Flatrock. The P.A.L. rail will hold all the standard P.A.L. Accessories aside from the folding front shelves for Timberline and Ironwood. This allows the customer to make this grill their own by adding the accessories they will use each and every cook. |
2 | Lower Grill Grate - Lg | 11 |
Leg The four legs for this grill are all the same regardless of the side they are on, making replacing this part (if needed) much easier to do. |
3 | Lower Grill Grate - Sm | 12 |
Hoof (Feet) The grill comes with 2 hooves to stabilize the grill and keep it level. |
4 |
Drip Tray The drip tray for the Woodridge grill is designed to be placed in one direction to allow grease to flow into the grease drain. The size allows ample coverage to allow for large cooks. |
13 |
Lid Handle The Woodridge lid handle includes x2 handle offset pieces, each with its own Mica gasket to reduce heat transfer from the barrel to the handle. |
5 |
Heat Baffle Like previous grills, the heat baffle will direct the flow of the heat from the firepot throughout the grill. |
14 |
Lid Taking inspiration from newer grills like the Timberline and Ironwood, the Woodridge's new streamlined lid keeps smoke moving within the grill for convection cooking. |
6 |
Ember Shield (aka Ash Cap) |
15 |
WiFIRE Controller The Woodridge controller has a new look. This WiFIRE-enabled Dot-Matrix controller displays information differently from previous WiFIRE-enabled models. |
7 |
Grease Chute This is a removable piece of the grease management system. The shape of this piece allows for placement in one way only, which will prevent improper placement. It is removable for easy cleanup. |
16 |
Auger Box This all-new component is the biggest difference in serviceability that differentiates the Woodridge Series from Traeger's previous lines of grills. This single component houses the grill's primary mechanical components: the auger, auger motor, hot rod, Induction Fan, and control board |
8 |
EZ-Clean Grease & Ash Keg The same EZ-Clean system from the Flatrock is in use on the Woodridge. This makes cleaning out the keg fast and easy. The same liners for the Flatrock EZ-Clean Grease + Ash Keg will fit. |
17 |
Wheels & Axle Being able to move the grill to wherever the customer wants is an important feature. These wheels will allow the customer to move the grill with ease. |
9 |
Wired Meat Probe The same, trusted wired meat probe included with most Traeger pellet grills. |
18 |
Leg X-Brace The X-shaped leg brace provides rigidity and stability to the Woodridge model. |
