Traeger adds Alexa voice control to its line of WiFi-enabled grills - Engadget

https://www.engadget.com/2019/11/14/trager-grills-alexa-voice-control/

Traeger's WiFi-enabled grills have a lot of handy features that are made possible through wireless connectivity. You can control or monitor the temperature and more remotely, so you don't have to venture outside unless you want to visually inspect your progress. Today, Traeger is taking the connectivity tools a step further by adding voice control through Alexa to its WiFire-equipped grills.

Yeah, me too. Why would I want to do this? Grilling, bbq is an escape for me. I don’t want Alexa/Siri/anybody involved in my already too connected life. Just meðŸ˜.
