4 Pork Tenderloin with Honey Garlic Mustard Sauce
Pork tenderloin is a bit of an underrated cut of meat yet it is delicious, inexpensive and quick to grill.
Much like a steak it’s best served medium rare for a succulent, tender bite that is unlike any other pork cut.
It pairs incredibly well with honey mustard garlic sauce.

It comes from the Traeger website and requires marinading the chicken overnight. That being said it only requires about 10 minutes on hot grills to cook.
The sweet and smoky flavours are absolutely delicious and the bourbon adds a great extra kick.

8 Wood-fired Pizza Recipe
A lot of people don’t think of making pellet grill pizza but there’s absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t.
Your Traeger grill can up to 500F (260C) which allows you to cook a delicious pizza in about 12 minutes or so.

A pizza stone could be helpful here if you want to cook pizza this way regularly, but it isn’t strictly necessary.
9 Traeger Smash Burgers
