Premium Wood-Fired Performance for Serious Backyard Pitmasters
The Traeger Ironwood® takes everything people love about pellet grilling and elevates it to a premium level. Featuring fully insulated construction, Super Smoke® Mode, WiFIRE® connectivity, Traeger's Downdraft Exhaust® system, and advanced Smart Combustion™ technology, the Ironwood delivers richer smoke flavour, tighter temperature control, and exceptional consistency across every cook. Whether you're smoking brisket overnight or grilling steaks for family dinner, the Ironwood is built to produce competition-worthy results with minimal effort.
Why Choose the Traeger Ironwood®?

Super Smoke® Mode Delivers More Flavour
One of the standout features of the Ironwood is Super Smoke® Mode. At lower cooking temperatures, this setting increases smoke production to create deeper bark, richer flavour, and the authentic wood-fired profile that pellet grill owners chase. It's particularly effective for:
- Brisket
- Pulled pork
- Beef ribs
- Pork ribs
- Lamb shoulder
- Smoked chicken
The result is a stronger smoke profile without sacrificing Traeger's famous ease of use.
WiFIRE® Smart Control
Monitor your cook from anywhere using the Traeger App. Adjust temperatures, track internal food temperatures, receive notifications, and follow step-by-step guided recipes from your smartphone.
Instead of babysitting your barbecue, you can spend more time entertaining while the Ironwood manages the cooking process for you.
Fully Insulated For Superior Temperature Control
The Ironwood features insulated side walls and advanced airflow management to help maintain stable temperatures in varying weather conditions.
Combined with Traeger's Smart Combustion™ technology and EvenFlow™ heat management system, this produces remarkably even cooking performance across the entire cooking surface.
Downdraft Exhaust® Technology
Unlike traditional pellet grills that vent smoke from the top, Traeger's Downdraft Exhaust® system pulls smoke across the food before exiting through the rear of the grill.
This keeps fresh wood smoke circulating around your food longer, helping maximise flavour development and cooking consistency.
EZ-Clean™ Grease & Ash Keg
Cleanup is one of the least enjoyable parts of outdoor cooking, so Traeger redesigned it completely.
The Ironwood's EZ-Clean™ Grease & Ash Keg collects grease and ash in a single removable container, making post-cook maintenance quick and simple.
