To give his salsa deep, wood-fired flavor, Fernando roasts tomatoes, onion, garlic, and jalapeño on the Traeger until lightly charred before pureeing them for sauce perfect for dipping. It makes about 2 cups and is easily doubled.

Tender, cheesy, and a bit crispy, what more can you ask from a side dish? Oh yeah, it’s also super easy and hands off to make. We especially like making this with delicata squash, but the more common acorn and butternut are also delicious. Feel free to try this method with other veg, too, such as the Brussels sprouts and new potatoes shown here.

Not only do these mashed potatoes offer the convenience of making them ahead, they’re also pre-portioned and look great on the plate.  Feel free to experiment with the herbs in the garlic butter: chopped parsley, sage, or chives are also good options.

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.

This cooked tomato salsa has tons of bright fresh flavor thanks to the lime, cilantro, and red onion added to the pureed charred ingredients. Serve it with tortilla chips or to accompany your favorite tacos or burritos.

Meaty beets take well to smoke and are amazing in green salads, especially if there’s goat or blue cheese to be had. They’re also delicious pickled or pureed for soup. You need to cook the beets before smoking or use already cooked beets sold in the produce section of the supermarket.
