My current cooking position is on the drive alongside my house, next to the kitchen door, which means the traeger is exposed - both to the elements and anyone walking past the house and looking up the drive.
As a result, I am currently garaging it once it has cooled sufficiently, so the longer cooling off time would be a bit of a pain. Also, it is heavy enough to move as it is, without bricks in it as well!
I have longer term plans for a small covered area alongside my garage, with a proper extermal power socket off of the garage's circuit (currently, I am simply throwing a lead out of the kitchen door). As well as sheltering the traeger, it will also be out of sight of the road, and I will be more happy with leaving it out most/all of the time.
I have a very nice covered area in my garage. My wife and I bought a nice shed from
http://whatshed.co.uk/big-sheds/. I wanted the first one which is a lot bigger but my wife chose Hartwood 10′ x 6′ FSC Double Door Overlap Apex Shed. It's not too big and still has enough space for her gardening. It has been 3 years since we bought it but its still ok. Though we need to repaint it maybe in December just in time for Holidays. But aside from that, everything is ok.
