Spring weather and the Traeger make a good combination, especially when you’re planning Easter dinner. Smoking a ham or roasting lamb outdoors frees up your kitchen and gives you more options for what to serve.
This roundup includes the classics for Easter: smoked ham with glaze, leg of lamb, herb-roasted chicken, and sides like asparagus, potatoes, and carrots that pick up great flavor on the grill. These recipes are designed to feed a crowd without requiring constant supervision, so you can spend more time with family and less time hovering over the stove.
This collection works well for Easter Sunday dinner, spring brunch gatherings, family celebrations, outdoor entertaining, and holiday meal prep.
