To date, no model of Traeger pellet grill/smoker has been fitted with direct flame access. Therefore, their highest temperature for grilling and searing is limited to the controller setting of 500 degrees. However, by using a set of Grill Grates, the surface temperature for grilling and searing can be improved.

If you are specifically looking for a pellet grill with direct flame access, you can use the drop down option on our database. You can then also use the custom search filter to narrow down the results to a specific budget and/or other features, such as WiFi.
