09:38 – Final thoughts on the Traeger Ironwood Vs Weber Stealth Pellet Grill
Both Traeger Ironwood and Weber Stealth are well-built, solid pellet grills with a decent amount of cooking space. The Ironwood features a 20 lbs hopper while the Stealth has a 22 lbs one. Each pit also has a low fuel sensor so you don’t have to worry about running out of pellets during the cook.
Traeger Ironwood and Weber Stealth are perfect for those who want a pit with a more modern operating system. The Stealth offers a PID WiFi controller with a temperature range of 200°F to 600°F degrees. The Ironwood has a WiFIRE PID touchscreen controller and a temperature range of 165°F to 500°F. Each brand has its own mobile app that allows monitoring your cook but also adjusts the temperature, set timer and alarm.
The initial startup and burn-off process is easy on both pits. I’d say that the Ironwood and the Stealth smoke a little above the average pellet grill. However, while the Stealth leaks a lot of smoke around the lid, the Ironwood does not leak at all thanks to the built-in gasket.
I also noticed some differences when cooking on Traeger Ironwood vs Weber Stealth. The Ironwood leans more toward the low and slow type of cooking, while the Stealth leans more toward the grilling. The spare ribs cooked on the Ironwood really impressed me with a perfect smoke ring. At the same time, grilled shrimp on the Weber Stealth were hands down the best I had in my life.
Overall, the Weber Stealth is best for someone who does more grilling but wants to start doing a little bit of low and slow cooking as well. The Ironwood will definitely do a great job on both. Despite the differences, I believe both pits are totally worth the investment.
