    Favorite Pellethead wood fuel

    I use only one brand. It is from cookingpellets.com. It is called the perfect blend. It is a mix of hard maple, hickory, apple, and cherry. I cook all types of meat with it. There is no oak in it. It burns long has a great smoke flavor and leaves very little ash behind. I put over 200 lbs...

    Favorite Pellethead wood fuel

    Everyone has a different level of smoke flavor.  I do not use anything to increase the amount of smoke inside my cooking chamber.  I keep it around smoke or 180 on my traegar until my meat reaches 160 degrees.  Once it reaches that temp the meat will not take anymore smoke flavor into it.  I...

    Looking for Butcher in Orange County for dry aged meat

    Got Wood?

    For briskets the best price I have found so far is Smart and Final.  They are packer cuts and are usually less then $2.50 per pound.  Not sure on orangewood suppliers, but check with any tree removal company they may call you up when they take and orange tree out.  You never know.

    Affordable Cooking Pellets

    I use the perfect blend and I do 12 hour and longer cooks on my grill at no higher then 250. I buy 40lb bags and I find use less the 20lbs between both grills. I did a 24 hour cook with both grills going the entire time and I did not use an entire bag. So while the cost of shipping them makes...

    Pellet Consumption

    The dialed in is knowing that the displayed temperature is the same are real close to what shows on the display. Seasoning the grill is running just wood at high temp to coat the walls with wood smoke. This allows for better flavor during your first cook and so on. Not sure about bacon burning...

    Treager troubles

    Recommend you either upgrade to the digital temp control which is very nice. Or better yet go with a savannah stoker, The savannah will give you the ability to control your temp in single digit increments. It is plug and play and I am gonna be replacing all my controllers to them.

    Traeger Temp control

    How long was the Traeger on before you put the meat on.  When you first fire up the treater the temp will go a little high before settling.  This is because of the speed of the auger dumping pellets into the firebox to get the temp up.  It usually take about 10 minutes from the time it lights to...

    Just got a Traeger - any words of wisdom?

    Save for the upgrade! Just kidding, you enjoy it. I recommend covering the drip pan with foil, it will make cleaning that pan easier. It is the shiny metal one you see through the grill. Get a shop vac to clean it out. I have one just for my grills. Also plan on wanting to cook everything on...

    Bonesless pork shoulder questions.

    You may notice a slight difference in flavor in the meat, and I mean slight because of all the seasoning we put on our pork.  As they say cooking meat on the bone gives it more flavor.  I would not worry too much about that.  Hope it turns out great.

    WHICH WOOD GIVES THE SWEETEST TASTE??

    your sweet woods, will tend to be your fruit woods.  Such as apple or cherry.  They will give your meat a slight flavor as the smoke they produce is more subtle.  Enjoy your mesquite for some it is the best thing to cook with.  An oak pecan mix will make for some very good base wood to use with...

    Brisket...what am I doing wrong?
