And if you have a pit that you rarely use in winter I do one or two things. Run it once or twice a month, Or run the pellets out of it all together. One year I didn't use it all winter & it wouldn't budge when I went to use it. Sheared the pin on the auger. Ended up taking it apart.

 Good info silverbullet!  Winter storage or long times of unuse is an other subject..When I had my Traeger I "winterized" it just as someone would store a vintage automobile. That way it was guaranteed ready once the weather warmed..

Still in the upper 80's here, maybe winter isn't coming this year...

You must be well below the 35th Parallel...

I use mine about the same year around.  I actually prefer cold vs sweltering hot unless its below 0F and windy.  My cooker is only a couple steps outside the kitchen so I can dart out and back in pretty quick. I doubt I ever go more than 2 weeks without at least cooking up some hot dogs, sausage or a quick burger.

Now that it’s getting cold up here it’s time to start smoking. It’s always too busy in the summer so when the weather starts to turn I can relax at home & make delicious meal after delicious meal!
