    Just a rundown..

    Alder = good choice for wood, mild and not overpowerful. I use it on cold smoked cheese. HT

    New to smoking

    ...bought a bag of bear mountain wood pellets before doing research and finding out wood chips are preferred in this type smoker. Should I take the pellets back and get chips or am I good to use the pellets? I've read that to use pellets I should get a pellet tube attachment, is that really needed?

    My first time using a pellet smoker

    Those ribs look so good...I'm hungry. I run a large or a small smoke tube depending on the length of the cook. For ribs I run a short tube. Too much smoke on cold/cool meat can get bitter. Too much smoke at the end of the cook can get bitter. Amazon sells various smoke tube knock offs...as...

    Is it enough smoke?

    I went from burning wood to cook to using a pellet machine. it is different. Nothing tastes like wood coals, even though pellets turn into wood coals. It's not just smoke, it's a whole different profile. I get enough smoke. I use a tube if I want to hit something for 2-3 hours (like burnt...

    Howdy from the Southeast

    Fairly new to smoking. Had to give up motorcycles, long distance hiking, and welding due to a heart condition so I figured if I was gonna be pudgy I might as well eat good. I drug out a Brinkmann Electric that belonged to my dad that had never been used, found a rub recipe and a blog about...

    To continue beating the poor horse.......

    only pellets ive tried were in a tube on my gas grill so i cant say on a fancy pellet grill/smoker. i like wood chunks. pile of coals in same chamber as meat my go to. less fuel less adjustments. maybe you could rent or barrow one for a weekend and see how you like the end results before...

    Big Cooks Planned Ahead

    This is what I did using a pellet tube on the grill before getting my gravity feed. https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/my-try-at-smoking-and-spinning-a-duck.312839/

    Is it enough smoke?

    Been running a Austin LX for over 7 years, I have never over smoked anything with it, I run a smoke tube most times, Might as well start in the oven if 2 hours is all the smoke ya like lol. spritzing every 30 minutes or so helps, on a stick burner or other charcoal fired units you really slow...

    Lighting pellet tube without big torch

    ...my charcoal in a chimney with a few balled-up, used cooking oil slightly soaked paper towels. maybe i could do something like that in the first few inches of pellets. everything i saw on youtube was big torches and one guy even doused his pellet tube with lighter fluid. thanks for any help.

    Lone Star Grillz Pellet Grill No smoke flavor

    I don't know what you are expecting. I have a cheapo pellet pooper and if I can keep the temps under 300° It will put some smoke flavor on what I'm cooking. When I need it to act as more of a smoker I do as @normanaj suggests and use a pellet tube. Still not as good as a dedicated smoker.

    300 gallon Propane tank PELLET smoker build - Questions

    I have built and used a lot of pellet cookers and for this to work I think you would need a much longer auger tube to burn pot. You would likely need to have these enter into CC on lower back and sit the chamber into 3rds with burn pots under each line with diffuser plate. You could easily turn...

    Lone Star Grillz Pellet Grill No smoke flavor

    It's a pellet grill,it was never going to produce much smoke flavor. Try starting your cooks at lower temps and bump the temp up over time,lower temps produce more smoke.You can also add something like an A-maze-n smoke tube which will give much more smoke.

    Pork smoking

    ...started, some folks with a pellet will smoke at your temp for an hour or two. Then move it up to 275. I'd do 275 the whole time with a pellet tube for extra smoke. I also like to put the meat in an alum pan after a while to catch the dripping. You can foil it once the meat hits 165 or so...

    Getting the right amount of smoke for taste

    ...also depends on the style of smoker you have. I felt that the Masterbuilt electric I had never gave me enough smoke flavor even using a pellet tube. I have had smoked meat from a wood only smoker that was very good. My charcoal smoker I have gives the widest range of smoke profile I have...

    My first time using a pellet smoker

    I'm doing the opposite here. I'm going from pellet grill to offset because I think it'll be more fun to be more involved. No good excuse to sit there and drink a beer if I don't have to be outside since it's so hot (Florida), so right now I sit inside and stare out the window at my pellet grill...

    Pan Seared Pekin Duck With Black Currant Sauce & Roasted Baby Potato’s

    lol thanks lcb! I hunted lots of duck as a kid but most them went to the smoke house or braised…. The pan seared mid rare wasn’t a thing…. Yea the Muscovy is the real deal too. I learned the low and slow from Geoffrey Zakarian (Michelin Star, Iron Chef, chopped) he specifically calls out that...

    No smoke

    Pellet grills are better grills than they are smokers. The fire is constantly forged with forced air making them burn very clean and efficient. This becomes a problem generally for pellet grills making smoke. Some have a “smoke” setting down on the low end and others just start temp somewhere...

    Looking At Getting A Pellet Smoker, Thoughts?

    I bought the Green Mountain pellet grill 5 years ago. I don't get the flavor that I got using the Masterbuilt electric smoker, but it sure makes it easy for long cooks. It is a perfect smoker for salmon. Over 40 pork butts have been through the GVG. Excellent results with the pellet grill and a...
