Key Features

Digital Elite controller keeps the preset temperature within +/- 20 degrees Fahrenheit for reliable cooking
  • E-Z drain grease management system draws all of your excess liquids into a bucket on the side
  • Versatile grill allows you to smoke, grill, bake, roast or braise for multiple cooking options
  • Large capacity hopper allows you to hold up to 18 lbs of pellets at once
The Elite series by Traeger combines the rich, full flavor of wood-fired cooking with modern precision. The Lil Tex Elite 22 pellet grill is constructed of powder coated steel, and boasts 20,000 BTUs of cooking power. The 418 square inches (22 X 19) of porcelain coated grilling surface produce excellent sear marks, while being easy to clean. The versatility of this pellet grill allows you to smoke at temperatures as low as 180 degrees and then crank it up to 450 degrees to sear to perfection. The Digital Elite controller displays the temperature inside the grill on the bright orange LED panel and is monitored by a resistance temperature detector probe which keeps the preset temperature within 20 degrees. The natural airflow inside of the grill allows for convection cooking, so you can bake a pizza right on your grill and do not have to turn your meat, unless cooking with high temperatures or if you want even grill marks. Traeger grills feature an auto-start system that is simple and safe to use. When you turn on the grill, the auger begins to feed pellets into the firepot while the draft induction fan feeds air into it. The igniter rod is activated and glows red hot for the first four minutes to ignite the pellets in the firepot. These cost-effective pellets burn at a rate of only 2 lbs per hour on high heat, 1 lb per hour on medium heat and only 1/2 lb per hour when smoking. This energy efficient grill runs off of a standard 110 volt outlet.

What me grill ?

I bought my Lil' Texas last summer 2015. The first item smoked chicken was perfect. Since then I have had only one failure with many good results. The failure was my seasoning choice not the grill.The ribs are so tender and tasty it is hard to believe I did them. My Treager has made me a master chef in the BBQ arena although I feel I still have much to learn on seasonings & sauses.One of the nicest parts while grilling is sitting back drinking my favourite drink & reading my book. The Treager does the work. Such an easy unit to use.I have added extra grill racks & will probably add the winter blankets. I could be grilling while snug inside the house monitoring the unit on my remote.

5 YEARS AND STILL LOVE IT

I bought my traeger 5 years ago. it has by far exceeded my expectations. It has made me a much better cook. I love to smoke pork shoulders and the ease of doing that is unbelievable. The shoulders always have a beautiful smoke ring and smoke flavor. I like that i put the shoulder on the day before I want to have it fill the hopper and dont revisit it until the next morning to put in my remote thermometer and check the hopper. I am now in the market for a new one just because its starting to look like an old grill. i will probably pass this one on to a family member who doesnt cook as much as i do.

Best Ever

I was skeptical of the high price of these grills/smokers but I will outgrow this Traeger before I have to replace it. The grill is constructed very well and will provide great tasting food for years to come. I love the fact that I can throw on some burgers and simply not worry about flipping the burgers at anytime. I only have to check on them a couple times and it allows me to get other things finished while they cook. Yes grilling burgers will take much longer than a traditional grill but the longer time is worth the wait. The grill will not flare up which will allow the burger to cook perfectly. You can use the grill for anything from hotdogs and hamburgers all the way up to whole chickens and briskets. This grill is pricy but you truly get a great product! You will not be disappointed with this grill!

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.
