Bought my Scout about 6 years ago and we love it! I have used it camping, trail riding and at home. I have three Traeger grills now and love them all.

People complain about the temperature fluctuations and getting too hot. Simple trick, keep the unit clean. You are probably experiencing back burns. Great little unit.

I have had the Traeger scout for about a year and I have used it about a dozen times. It is unable to regulate the temperature and has wild 150 degree temperature swings. Although I can cook on the grill, I have hated it from the very first time I tried using it. Don't waste your money on the scout.

I bought the Scout February 10, 2023. Certainly wish I hadn't. Deign flaws that Traeger knows about. Traeger will not stand behind the product.

I have had this grill for a little over a month. I clean it after every use and follow the instructions to start it up. After I set the temperature to my desire setting the temperature quickly rises well above the temperature I have it set to. If I set the temperature to 225 degrees it will rise to over 400 degrees and stay there. I tested it for over an hour and the temperature never dropped below 400 even though I set it to 225 degrees.

Can't hold temp. Can't cook anything right on it. Just got a Recteq smoker. Recteq is way better than traeger.

I got this a year or two ago, I'm glad it was free, but free is almost too expensive for this. When it works, it's great, but I have to run the P-Setting at the slowest mode possible, and run it at nearly the lowest temp possible. Half the time I come out, it's got a heat error and has shut off Reading other reviews, it seems temperature swings are common. Most recently I cooked bacon and to set the temp to 200 because it was still swinging up to near 530 on the grill's temp sensor (which I think is faulty/poorly designed, no way was it really that hot), and I was worried it would hit 550 and shut off When it works, the food is great, but, oof. It's caused me to be a better cook by learning to take food off the grill and find another way to cook food fast. Huge bummer. Can't imagine taking this thing camping, I wouldn't expect it to work. It retains 2 stars because the food it does manage to cook all the way without turning off is great.
Questions & Answers
Hey Anthony! You can but you will not be able to do large amounts with the size of the grill.
Asked by Anthony | Answered by LukeHey Rick! It does not have a stand as an option unfortunately. Would like to let you know about the tailgater though, as it is around that ball park range of where this grill is and it can be stood upright. Hope this information helps!
Asked by Rick | Answered by LukeHi! It really depends on what kind of meat you are smoking. It has a grilling surface of 184 square inches.. According to Traeger the grill is capable of cooking 6 burgers at a time or 1 rack of ribs.
Asked by 57 | Answered by BrandiThis grill provides 184 square inches of cooking area, which is enough to cook around 6 burgers.
Asked by 57 | Answered by RosaGreat question, Tim! The Scout has a similar grease management system as the larger Traeger models. The drip tray slopes toward the back of the grill and funnels the grease into a bucket hanging on the back.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
