Spring is in swing, which means we’re looking ahead to grilling season. The Men’s Journal grilling awards highlighted our favorite outdoor cooking appliances, ranging from pizza ovens to gas grills. The top-performing pellet grill was unsurprisingly one from Traeger, the brand that invented the category, which our tester called “the best grill I’ve ever reviewed.” Now a more affordable Traeger grill, the brand’s signature 575 Wood Pellet Grill, is on sale for a limited time on Amazon.
Typically $800, the grill is 25% off, dropping the price to $600. With over 1,700 five-star ratings, it’s the No. 2 bestseller in the combination grill-smokers category on Amazon. There are two colors to choose from, including bronze and black, and it’s designed to be easy to assemble.

Pellet grills may be a niche category, but they’ve become increasingly popular thanks to the uniquely smoky flavor the wood pellets imbue. Traeger’s 575 grill is an electric, WiFi-enabled grill, so your patio will need a nearby outlet. The WiFi-enabled grill pairs with an iOs or Android app, allowing for precise, convenient control of your grill.
The grill is relatively compact, but the surface has enough space for up to 24 burgers, making it a good option for apartment balconies and backyard BBQs alike. Plus, the rugged wheels make it easy to move around. Traeger also makes different kinds of pellets, allowing you to experiment with various flavor profiles.
Shoppers were impressed with the grilling performance, comparing it favorably to other kinds of grills. One wrote that the 575 “elevated my cooking to a different level,” adding, “It’s just that much more flavorful and delicious.” Another called it “So much more than a smoker,” writing, “I use it multiple times every week. It makes everything taste better. I use it for pizza, nachos, salmon, pork, and cornbread.”
Shoppers also appreciated the ease of use, with one writing, “We have used the Traeger for brisket and lamb and both came out perfect. Tender and delicious. The app makes it so easy to monitor the temperature. This is dummy proof. So happy we went with this one.” Another called it “almost too easy,” writing, “So far I’ve smoked salmon, cooked whole chickens, a ham, etc. With the included probe and wifi connection to the app, I was able to monitor everything remotely which was awesome as the weather has not been very cooperative.”
Whether you’re a seasoned pit-master or a grilling newbie, Traeger’s 575 wood pellet grill brings a unique wood-fired flavor profile to everything you cook, and the WiFi-enabled app makes it easy to maintain the perfect temperature. With a $200 discount for a limited time, it’s a good idea to act fast.
