It’s finally starting to get cold outside, which means we can finally start having cozy, warm meals again! One of our family’s favorite meals when it’s cold outside is a roast with mashed potatoes and gravy. It’s always delicious, but have you ever tried making a roast on a Traeger Grill? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, pretty much everything tastes better on a Traeger. Check out the recipe below!
