Pellets have been around for quite some time as a fuel source for heating, but wood pellets for food smoking has moved
from trend to tradition for outdoor cooking enthusiasts. Whether you’re a novice smoker or a BBQ pro, there are a few
things you should know about pellet smoking before you get started. While wood stick, propane, electric, and charcoal
smokers can provide an intense amount of smoke during the cooking process, wood pellet smoking gives a unique and
different experience. You will notice stronger smoke amounts at temperatures less than 190 degrees. Above 200 degrees,
you will notice the smoke is not as intense. The pellet smoking experience lends to a lighter thin, blue smoke. You’ll love
the smoke flavor it imparts on your food and the ease of use, versus loading wood chips or chunks continually in other
smokers. Have fun experimenting and mastering the art of wood pellet smoking.
