Questions and answers
- Which is better for a large family or party?
- The Westwood XL. Its 825 sq in of cooking area is 250 sq in more than the Pro 575, so it fits more racks and sides at once.
- Which one sears better?
- The Pro 575. It reaches 500°F versus 450°F on the Westwood XL, which matters for steaks and burgers.
- Is the Westwood XL worth $200 more?
- Yes if you need the extra space and the side shelf. If you mostly cook for two to four people, the Pro 575 does the same job for less.
- Do both connect to the Traeger app?
- Yes. Both use Traeger's WiFIRE digital controller, so you can monitor and adjust cooks from your phone.
- Which is easier to move?
- The Westwood XL is lighter at 113 lbs versus 124 lbs. The Pro 575 has all-terrain wheels, which help on rough ground.
- Which smokes more?
- Reviewers say the Westwood XL produces little smoke, more like an oven. The Pro 575's smoke output is not described in the same terms, so compare both on low-and-slow cooks before deciding.
