Welcome to SMF!

I've never heard of them before your post and a quick google search didn't reveal much. if you're using them in the ASmoke grills etc that's one thing.. especially if it came with the unit.

If yo're looking at using the pellets in another pellet smoker/grill just because you found the pellets cheaper or something.. please don't. Try and stick with a name brand of pellets so that you can be aware of what's in them and their quality etc. I personally use Pit Boss Competition Blend pellets but other opinions will vary.

So.. a little more research led me to this and I stand corrected - these pellets are NOT cheaper.

Original Price $34.99 - Amazon Price - $29.99/20# bag. That's $1.49 per pound.
Pit Boss Competition Blend $14.96/40# bag (at Walmart) - that's 37 cents per pound - the ASmoke Pellets are almost 4 times as expensive.

Here's the Amazon description:
