Looking for a great YouTube grilling, smoking, or BBQ channel to follow? Be sure to check out T-Roy Cooks. In this video, T-Roy shares his method of smoking two styles of ribs on his Kamado Joe using Code 3 Spice‘s Backdraft Rub:
Love T-Roy’s simple method: Worcestershire Sauce on both sides, and then generously sprinkle on the rub. He lets them go for 5 hours at 250F. No saucing, but he does spritz with apple juice every hour or so. Mmmm. Mmmm. Those look goood!

Companies often times build products with the mass consumer in mind. They then offer their own, sold-separately accessories at a premium. That’s why “mods” or modifications are increasingly popular, especially among BBQ enthusiasts.

Here’s a list of some comparable parts you’ll need, if you want to trick out your Traeger like Trikester (whew, say that three times fast!):
1. 10in Air Tires or 7in Universal Wheel (see also Traeger Wheel Modification video for step-by-step and more parts/tools needed)
2. Traeger Front-Shelf (step-by-step video here; see also Under Shelf)
4. Large Zip Ties (for securing caddy to leg, or drip bucket to hook)
5. Savannah Stoker (upgraded thermostat)
