Two-level grilling area of 5,548 cm²

The Traeger Woodridge offers a total grilling area of 5,548 cm², divided between two grate levels. The main grilling grate measures approximately 70 × 47 cm with an area of 3,355 cm², while the upper grate measures approximately 70 × 32 cm and offers an area of 2,194 cm². This layout allows you to prepare multiple types of food simultaneously and make better use of the entire grilling chamber space.

According to the manufacturer, the Woodridge offers enough space for up to 6 chickens, 8 racks of ribs or 6 pork shoulders with appropriate arrangement. The grill grates are made of porcelain-coated steel, providing a practical surface for regular use and easier maintenance.

Automatic grilling with wood pellets

The Traeger Woodridge uses wood grilling pellets as fuel, which create heat and give the prepared food its characteristic smoky aroma. Pellets are transported from the hopper by an automatic auger feeder into the fire pot, where they are ignited and burn in a controlled manner. The electronic system continuously adjusts fuel delivery and fan speed based on the set temperature, eliminating the need for manual tending as with a traditional charcoal grill.

This solution makes the Woodridge particularly suitable for longer Low & Slow grilling, where meat is prepared at lower temperatures over several hours. However, you can also use the grill effortlessly for standard preparation of steaks, burgers, sausages, vegetables, fish, or roasted specialties.

WiFIRE – grill control via mobile app

One of the main advantages of the Traeger Woodridge model is WiFIRE technology, which allows you to connect the grill to your home Wi-Fi network and control it via the Traeger mobile app. Through the app, you can monitor the current temperature, adjust settings, track the cooking progress and, when using a temperature probe, monitor the internal temperature of the meat. This is especially practical during long cooks, as you don't have to stand directly at the control panel.

Additionally, the Traeger app offers an extensive database of recipes and inspiration for preparing various types of meals. However, the grill also works without an internet connection, as all basic functions can be controlled directly using the digital panel. WiFIRE therefore represents an enhancement of convenience rather than a requirement for grilling. Remote monitoring does not replace safe supervision of the powered-on appliance.

Digital temperature control from 82 to 260 °C

The Traeger Woodridge grill allows you to set the temperature approximately within the range of 82–260 °C, enabling various cooking methods. At lower temperatures, you can slowly smoke ribs or prepare pulled pork or beef brisket. Medium temperatures are ideal for roasting poultry, fish, vegetables, or other dishes, while higher temperatures can be used for classic grilling, intense searing of meat, or baking pizza.

Digital control automatically adjusts the grill's operation according to the set value, making it easier to maintain the required temperature conditions. The actual internal temperature of the grill may naturally fluctuate depending on ambient weather, the amount of food being prepared, and how often the lid is opened.

11 kg pellet hopper for longer grilling

The grill includes an 11 kg capacity wood pellet hopper, providing ample fuel for longer preparations without the need for frequent refilling. This is particularly appreciated during slow BBQ or when smoking larger cuts of meat. Actual pellet consumption depends on the set temperature, grilling duration, and outdoor conditions.

A practical advantage is also the hopper drain hole, which allows for easier removal of remaining pellets. This makes it easier to switch between different types of wood and adapt the final aroma to the dishes being prepared. For example, apple wood offers subtler fruity notes, while oak or various hardwood blends create a different smoky flavour profile.

Wired meat probe for temperature control

The Traeger Woodridge is equipped with a wired temperature probe, allowing you to continuously monitor the internal temperature of the meat. Simply place the probe correctly into the food and monitor the readings on the grill or via the mobile app during cooking. This eliminates the need to unnecessarily check the meat by repeatedly opening the lid, which helps minimise temperature fluctuations inside the grilling chamber.

The grill is also compatible with selected Traeger wireless temperature probes with Bluetooth technology, which can be purchased separately. These probes expand your monitoring options and are particularly useful when grilling several different dishes at once.

EZ-Clean – unified grease and ash collection

One of the most practical features of the Woodridge model is the EZ-Clean Grease & Ash Keg system, which collects dripping grease and ash from the burning pellets into one easily accessible container. This solution simplifies routine maintenance and reduces the need for complex cleaning after every grilling session. Once operation has finished and the device has cooled down completely, the container can be removed, emptied, and cleaned.

However, the EZ-Clean system does not replace the regular cleaning of other grill components. It is important to also check the drip tray, grilling grates, and combustion chamber to prevent excessive accumulation of grease and ash. Regular maintenance helps maintain the correct function and safe operation of the device.

P.A.L. Pop-And-Lock – accessories always at hand

The Traeger Woodridge is compatible with the P.A.L. Pop-And-Lock system, which allows you to attach further practical accessories to the grill's dedicated rail. Depending on your needs, you can purchase items such as grill tool holders, hooks, organisers, or storage boxes. Individual accessories can be easily attached, removed, or moved, allowing you to customise the workspace to your grilling style.

The advantage of this solution is better organisation of equipment and easier access to the most frequently used tools. P.A.L. accessories are sold separately and are not automatically included in the standard equipment of the Woodridge model.

ModiFIRE – expand your grilling options

The Woodridge also supports the Traeger ModiFIRE accessory system, which allows the use of special grilling attachments designed for compatible Traeger grills. Depending on the chosen accessory, you can expand your cooking options to include, for example, a plancha or other specialised grilling surfaces.

This means your grill isn't limited to just classic grilling grates. You can adapt it for preparing meat, vegetables, breakfast dishes, or other specialties. ModiFIRE accessories must be purchased separately, and we recommend verifying the compatibility of specific accessories before purchase.

Practical hooks for easier cleaning

Another useful detail of the Traeger Woodridge grill is the integrated storage hooks, used for hanging removed grilling grates during cleaning. This eliminates the need to search for another suitable surface to place them on, allowing you to work more comfortably within the grilling chamber.

You will particularly appreciate this detail during a more thorough cleaning of the drip system or the fire pot area. In combination with the EZ-Clean system, it helps simplify the regular maintenance of the entire grill.

Construction and easier handling

The Traeger Woodridge features a sturdy construction with four legs that provide stable support for the grilling chamber. The chassis also includes transport wheels, making it easy to move the cooled grill across a suitable flat surface. According to the manufacturer's technical support, the overall dimensions of the assembled unit are approximately 127 × 117 × 69 cm (width × height × depth).

The weight of the grill itself is approximately 63 kg. During installation, it is important to ensure a level, firm, and non-combustible surface and sufficient space around the device. The grill is intended for outdoor use and must not be placed in an enclosed or inadequately ventilated area.

First use and seasoning the grill

Before the first use, the Woodridge must be correctly assembled and undergo initial seasoning according to the manufacturer's instructions. This process prepares the grill for regular use and removes any manufacturing residues from the internal parts.

For the Woodridge series, Traeger specifies heating to 175 °C for 15 minutes once the temperature is reached, followed by an increase to 260 °C for a further 45 minutes. After completing the seasoning, it is necessary to start and let the prescribed shutdown cycle run to completion. Before first use, we recommend reviewing the entire procedure in the manual, including hopper preparation and the correct commissioning of the pellet auger.

Safe use of the pellet grill

The Traeger Woodridge is intended exclusively for outdoor use on a stable and suitable non-combustible surface. When positioning the grill, it is essential to maintain safe distances from buildings, roofing, and flammable materials according to the manufacturer's instructions. The previously stated distance of 10 cm from the wall is not a sufficient safety rule and should not be used in the product description.

During operation, use only dry wood pellets designed for pellet grills, check that the grease drainage is functioning correctly, and protect the electrical connection from damage. Use appropriate protective gloves when handling hot parts and never leave the grill unattended while switched on, even if you are using WiFIRE remote control. After cooking, it is necessary to allow the prescribed shutdown cycle to complete, during which the combustion system is safely shut down. Do not disconnect the grill from the power supply before this cycle is finished.

Regular maintenance and storage

Regular maintenance of the Traeger Woodridge grill mainly includes cleaning the grill grates, the drip tray, the combustion chamber and the combined EZ-Clean system container. Once the device has cooled down completely, check the amount of collected grease and ash and empty the container as needed. Continuously remove any deposits that could restrict airflow or the correct function of the combustion system.

Keep wood pellets in a dry place, as moisture can cause them to crumble and lead to automatic feeding problems. If you do not use the grill for a longer period, we recommend cleaning it, emptying the hopper if necessary and protecting it with a suitable protective cover.

What do we recommend buying?

For proper function and the desired smoky aroma, we recommend using high-quality Traeger wood grilling pellets. By choosing a specific wood type or blend, you can adjust the resulting flavour of the meat, fish or vegetables being prepared.

For the protection of the grill during outdoor storage, we recommend the Traeger Woodridge protective cover. Compatible P.A.L. or ModiFIRE accessories, grilling utensils and cleaning tools can also be practical additions.
