Recommendation: For easy cleanup, line the
grease drip tray with Traeger Aluminum Drip Tray
Liners or heavy-duty aluminum foil. If using foil, be
sure the edges and ends of the foil are tight against
the bottom of the grease drip tray. Replace foil after
each cook to reduce the possibility of a grease fire.
Please see “Maintaining Your Grill” on page 22 for
