Do you primarily use the traeger as a grill when doing that or more as a smoker?  I figured grill but thought I'd ask.  I can almost taste it through the screen!

Allright, I'll ask the stupid question:  What's a pigtail?

Well first you have the snoot....and then as you move to the rear, well there you have it!  ;D
No, I believe its long rod with the hook on the end (hence pigtail) for moving pieces of meat around that are to large for tongs!

Ok. I got it now. It's another one of those tools for "the guy that has everything"

You guys don't use your hands?  ??? ??? ;)

I try not to use any tools that pierce the meat and cause the juices to run out.  One of the reasons I hate to use a meat thermometer on a good steak.  A lot of places use the Pigtails though.  Probably not that big of an issue on the thin cuts.
