xMeatender Upgraded 2.0 RPM Auger Motor — robust replacement for pellet grills
The Meatender 2.0 RPM auger motor is designed as a direct replacement for grills that use a standard AC auger motor. Built to handle regular start–stop cycles, this 110V 60Hz unit brings a higher feed rate than typical stock motors, delivering steady pellet delivery and helping maintain consistent cooking temperatures across a range of tasks. It’s engineered to fit models that rely on a conventional auger setup, giving you a practical upgrade without changing the hopper or controller.
In real-world use, the upgraded motor targets common pain points like low heat during cold weather and occasional feeding hiccups during long cooks. While results depend on your specific grill and setup, this design aims to offer smoother pellet feeding and more reliable operation during overnight sessions, searing runs, and longer smoke cycles.
Broad compatibility and straightforward installation
This motor is conceived as a plug-and-play replacement for a wide array of popular brands that use standard AC auger motors. See the notes below before ordering to ensure fitment with your unit. Important fitment note: it is intended for AC models only and is not compatible with certain D2/DC grills or PTG units. Always verify that your existing motor is 110V AC and 2.0 RPM before purchase.
- Wide compatibility includes Traeger 070, 075, Texas Elite, Pro 22/34, Lil Tex Elite, Pit Boss Pro 820/850, Austin XL, Oklahoma Joe Rider DLX, Z Grills, Camp Chef, Cuisinart WoodCreek, and more.
- Direct replacement that fits the hopper assembly using the existing mounting pattern.
Key features you can expect
- 2.0 RPM upgrade with a heavy-duty anti-jam gear system to reduce feeding blockages during long cooks.
- Reinforced metal gearbox and high-torque nylon gears designed for consistent torque on standard 6mm pellets.
- DIY-friendly installation with a included hex wrench for quick replacement at home.
- 110V 60Hz operation with upgraded windings and high-temp wiring built to handle typical pellet-fueled heat cycles.
Practical use scenarios
Think of cool-weather smoking where keeping a steady fire matters, or reviving older grills that struggle with pellet feed during long cooks. The higher feed rate can support steady heat, which is especially noticeable when searing steaks or slow-smoking briskets. The design emphasizes long-term reliability for frequent start–stop cycling, helping you focus on cooking rather than troubleshooting.
What comes with installation and care tips
The upgrade is designed for a quick home install, and the included hex wrench makes the process simpler. To keep performance consistent over time, periodically inspect the motor connections, ensure mounting hardware remains tight, and verify that the gearbox and gears show no visible wear.
Note: This is a dedicated AC 110V, 2.0 RPM motor. Confirm compatibility with your specific grill model and model numbers before purchasing.

Q: Will this motor fit my pellet grill?

A: No. It’s a direct replacement that fits into the hopper assembly; the included hex wrench allows a DIY installation.
