Two-level grilling area of 3,690 cm²

Traeger Pro Series 22 offers two levels of grilling grates with a total area of 3,690 cm², providing ample space for regular family grilling and preparing larger quantities of food.

The main grate measures approximately 56 × 48.5 cm with a grilling area of 2,697 cm². The upper grate, measuring approximately 56 × 18 cm, offers an additional 993.5 cm².

Thanks to this arrangement, you can use the individual levels according to the type of dishes being prepared.

The main grate is suitable for steaks, burgers, sausages, vegetables or larger pieces of meat. The upper grate can be used, for example, for slower preparation, smoking or baking.

The grilling grates are made of porcelain-enameled steel, which is easy to clean with proper maintenance.

According to the manufacturer, the grill provides enough space to prepare, for example, up to 4 chickens, 5 racks of ribs or 24 burgers with a suitable arrangement.

Digital Pro Controller – automatic temperature regulation

The grill is equipped with a Digital Pro digital regulator with Advanced Grilling Logic technology, which automatically controls the pellet feed and helps maintain the set temperature.

Simply set the desired value on the control panel, and the regulator then adjusts the grill's operation according to current conditions.

This system significantly simplifies food preparation compared to a classic charcoal grill, where fuel must be added manually and the combustion intensity regulated.

Advanced Grilling Logic helps limit temperature fluctuations. However, the actual temperature may fluctuate naturally during operation depending on the ambient temperature, wind, amount of pellets or the frequency of opening the lid.

Thanks to automatic regulation, the Pro Series 22 is also suitable for long, slow grilling using the Low & Slow method, where it is important to maintain appropriate temperature conditions for several hours.

Temperature range for smoking, baking and grilling

Traeger Pro Series 22 offers a temperature range of approximately 75–232 °C, allowing for the preparation of various types of dishes.

Lower temperatures are particularly suitable for slow BBQ and smoking, for example when preparing beef brisket, pork ribs or pulled pork.

Medium temperatures can be used for roasting chicken, fish, vegetables or other foods.

Higher temperatures up to approximately 232 °C allow for classic grilling of steaks, burgers and other specialties.

This allows you to use the grill not only for preparing meat, but also for baking and other outdoor cooking methods.

Automatic wood pellet feeding

The Traeger Pro Series 22 uses wood grilling pellets as fuel, which create heat and a characteristic smoky aroma during combustion.

The grill is equipped with an automatic auger feeder that transports pellets from the hopper to the fire pot.

The electronic controller manages the fuel dosing to maintain the set temperature without the need for constant manual adding.

This is particularly appreciated during longer cooks, such as smoking ribs or larger cuts of meat.

The resulting intensity of the smoky flavour depends on the type of pellets used, the temperature, and the length of cooking.

8 kg pellet hopper with easy emptying

The grill includes a wood pellet hopper with a capacity of approximately 8 kg.

This volume allows for longer operation without the need to constantly refill the fuel. Actual pellet consumption depends primarily on the set temperature, weather conditions, and grilling duration.

A practical advantage is the hopper drain hole, which makes it easier to remove remaining pellets.

This allows you to conveniently change the type of fuel used and adapt the resulting aroma to the food being prepared.

For example:

• Hickory – a bolder smoky aroma suitable for beef and pork

• Apple – a milder, sweet aroma suitable for poultry and pork

• Cherry – a pleasant fruity aroma for meat and other dishes

• Wood blends – universal use for everyday grilling

For proper operation, use high-quality dry pellets designed for pellet grills.

Temperature probe for monitoring meat doneness

The grill allows you to monitor not only the temperature inside the cooking chamber but also the internal temperature of the meat using a wired temperature probe.

The probe is inserted into the food being prepared and connected to the digital controller.

This allows you to continuously monitor the meat temperature without having to repeatedly open the lid and unnecessarily lose heat.

This feature is particularly practical when preparing larger cuts of meat, where the correct internal temperature is a key indicator of doneness.

Newer production series come standard with one wired probe. Older versions may have been equipped with two probes.

Simple operation without WiFIRE

Unlike newer smart Traeger models, the Pro Series 22 is not equipped with WiFIRE technology or the option for remote control via a mobile app.

All basic functions are controlled directly on the grill's digital panel.

This will be appreciated by customers who prefer simple use without the need to pair a phone or connect the grill to a home Wi-Fi network.

The automatic temperature control operates independently and does not require any internet connection.

Drip system with removable grease bucket

When grilling meat, fat and juices are produced, which need to be diverted from the grilling chamber.

The Traeger Pro Series 22 is equipped with a drip tray and a system for diverting fat into a separate bucket.

Fat is thus captured outside the main grilling area, making subsequent cleaning easier.

After grilling is finished and the device has cooled down, the bucket can be removed and emptied.

It is also important to regularly clean the drip tray and check the patency of the drainage system to prevent grease buildup.

Ash from the burnt pellets is removed separately from the combustion chamber. The Pro Series 22 does not have a combined EZ-Clean system for grease and ash like some newer Traeger models.

Robust construction and easier relocation

The grill has a stable steel construction with four legs, two of which are equipped with transport wheels.

The side handle allows for more comfortable handling when moving the cooled grill.

The overall dimensions of the assembled grill are approximately 104 × 68,5 × 124,5 cm (width × depth × height) and the weight is approximately 46.5 kg.

The grill also includes a chimney for smoke exhaust and a characteristic lid with a handle.

Always place the grill on a firm, level, and stable surface. Do not move it during operation or while glowing pellet residues are present.

First use and proper lighting

Before the first grilling, it is necessary to assemble the device correctly and perform the initial burn-in according to the manufacturer's instructions.

During the first start-up, the feeding mechanism is also primed so that the pellets reach the combustion chamber correctly.

For normal use, proceed as follows:

1. Check the cleanliness of the grill and the correct positioning of the deflector, drip tray, and grates

2. Fill the hopper with suitable dry grilling pellets

3. Connect the grill to a suitable mains power supply

4. Close the lid and start the grill according to the Digital Pro controller instructions

5. Set the desired temperature and allow the grill to preheat

6. Once the appropriate conditions are reached, add the food to be prepared

After grilling is complete, it is important to start the prescribed Shut Down Cycle and allow it to finish.

During this process, the fan helps the remaining pellets in the firepot burn off safely.

Do not disconnect the grill from the mains power supply before the shut down cycle is complete.

Safe use of the pellet grill

The Traeger Pro Series 22 is intended exclusively for outdoor use.

Follow these basic safety guidelines during operation:

• Place the grill on a stable, level, and suitable non-combustible surface

• Maintain safe distances from buildings, roofing, and flammable materials according to the manufacturer's instructions

• Do not use it inside buildings, garages, or other enclosed spaces

• Do not leave the grill unattended during operation

• Use only suitable dry grilling pellets

• Protect the electrical connection from moisture and damage

• Use grilling gloves when handling hot parts

• After preparation is complete, allow the prescribed shut down cycle to finish

• Remove ash, grease, and other debris only after the grill has cooled down completely

We also recommend checking the condition of the drip system and the cleanliness of the firepot before each use.

Regular maintenance and storage

To ensure the grill functions correctly, it is important to regularly remove ash, grease, and other deposits.

After the grill has cooled down completely, we recommend cleaning the grilling grates, checking the drip tray, and emptying the grease bucket.

As needed, it is also necessary to remove ash from the firepot and check the condition of the heat deflector.

For more thorough cleaning, the manufacturer recommends vacuuming the cooled ash with a suitable vacuum cleaner and cleaning the interior parts of the grill.

Do not use unsuitable wire brushes, as they may damage the enamelled surface of the grates.

Store wood pellets in a dry place, as moisture can cause them to crumble and lead to subsequent fuel feeding problems.

If you do not use the grill for an extended period, we recommend cleaning it, emptying the pellet hopper if necessary, and protecting it with a suitable protective cover.

What do we recommend buying?

For proper operation and the desired flavour of your food, we recommend wood grilling pellets, which we offer in various wood types and aromatic blends.

For outdoor storage, you will also appreciate the protective cover for Traeger Pro 575 and Pro Series 22 grills, which is designed specifically for these models.

For easier maintenance, you can use disposable drip liners compatible with the Pro series.

You can find further suitable equipment in the Traeger grill accessories category.
