Prost & Dig In
German Potato Salad
This wood-fired, bacon-studded take on German potato salad skips boiling the spuds. Instead, the potatoes cook in a zesty apple cider vinegar mixture right on the Traeger. The vinegar not only lends flavor but it also prevents the potatoes from becoming mushy during the cooking process. Soaking the potatoes in water removes excess starch and keeps them from browning.
Pork Schnitzel with Mushroom Cream Sauce
4.8
World Barbecue Champion Camillo Tomanek (aka Don Caruso BBQ) wields his Traeger in his home country of Germany. Here he Traeger-izes schnitzel by adding some wood-fired flavor to the crisp cutlets. A creamy mushroom sauce makes the dish extra luxe while an easy cucumber salad balances the richness with a tangy crunch. If you like, you can make the sauce and salad ahead of cooking the pork.
Baked Pretzel Bites & Beer Cheese Dip
3.8
This all-star duo of soft pretzels and cheese sauce is paired with some golden suds to take this winning combo from damn good to absolutely amazing. We bake pretzel bites from scratch, then pair them with a delicious beer-cheese sauce made from white cheddar, Gruyère, cream cheese, and your favorite lager.

Smoke & Sizzle Coffee-Rubbed Pulled Beef
4.0
Inspired by carnitas, in which pork is cooked low and slow then crisped over high heat, this take uses beef flavored with Traeger Coffee rub that’s smoked for hours then braised until fall apart tender. Note: You’ll need to cook the meat for about 8 hours, so plan ahead. After getting shredded, the beef gets quickly seared on the flat top until crisp on the edges for an amazing contrast of textures. Serve the beef as main dish with sides like French fries, rice, cooked greens, or coleslaw or use the tender meat, topped with cheese if you like, in sandwiches, wraps, or tacos and serve the braising liquid on the side for dunking.

3-2-1 BBQ Baby Back Ribs
4.5
Our famously easy 3-2-1 ribs recipe will make your rib game the envy of the neighborhood. This super simple recipe takes all the confusion out of making ribs without sacrificing any flavor. Start by smoking your ribs for 3 hours, then cook inside foil for 2 hours and finish by removing from foil and brushing on sauce for up to 1 hour.
Flat Top Stuffed French Toast
5.0
Chef JRob describes his sweet brunch dish as a cross between French toast and cheesecake. Yet the cream cheese and blueberry filling could not be easier to make, and the large surface area of the flat top lets you cook all the brioche at once so everyone can eat at the same time.
Flat Top Porcini-Dusted Smashed Burger
5.0
We’re taking the classic smashed burger up a notch with porcini powder and a special sauce. The dried mushroom powder, sometimes called dust, gives the meat an even deeper savory flavor. If your supermarket carries dried porcinis but not powder, simply grind the whole dried mushrooms in a spice grinder. Spreading a little mayo on the buns before toasting them makes them nicely browned and crisped.
Flat Top Cinnamon-Sugar Crepe Cake
Diva Q makes this fantastical, many-layered cake for her kids, who request it often for breakfast (and just about any other time of day). Once you try it, you will know why. For best results, let the crepe batter rest for at least a couple of hours but preferably overnight.
Flat Top Spicy Chicken Fajitas
Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are a great choice for cooking on the griddle. As convenient and quick cooking as chicken breast, they have a deeper flavor and are more forgiving so they’re almost guaranteed to stay juicy after cooking. We like the heat the jalapeño ribs provide. If that’s not your thing, cut the seeds ribs out of the slices. Depending on how filled you like your fajitas, you may have extra vegetables; if so, save them to use in omelets or on pizza.
