Have a Traeger, but only really because it was a Costco special. We love it. I might have gone GMG if it weren't for Costco. Both are good choices.
However, as a caution, if you use an external meat thermometer with the Traeger, wrap the wires where it enters the grill in some foil for protection. I went through several probes until I read that trick. Don't know if GMG has that heavy of a lid, but thought I'd throw that out there to save a little heartache.
You'll love grilling with pellets. Anything you can bake, you can also cook with pellets using the same recipes. One of our best was a whole turkey. Happy eating!
I don't know about the other Green Mountain Grills, but my Davy Crockett has a small hole with a slide cover for the meat thermometer that comes with the grill. Slide open the cover and poke it through to probe the meat. You can toggle from meat temp to grill temp on the grill or see both on the phone using the App.
Life is rough.
