I haven't used their pellets, but I do use their wood chunks. Keep in mind that the pellets they are selling are going to be a blend of the wood stated, along with a majority of either oak or alder. If you're ok with a blend, then that's a good price.
 
Not sure why there not on their web site but they definitely were in the store. At least 20 bags on a pallet! Looked like a good buy. What Sam's had was a blend but their web site shows several different kinds of single wood!

Other than alder, I don't see any that are made from a single species. They are all blended with alder. What are you seeing? Got a link?
 

Right. Those are ALL blended with alder. I've said this before but it bears repeating. If the bag lists the species but only says 100% hardwood, then it's not a 100% flavor wood pellet. There are only a few companies that make 100% flavor wood pellets, and you can bet that they will tell you that prominently on the bag.

But again, Smokehouse sells good products and that's a great price, so try a bag and see if you like it.
 
Would you mind listing the Manufactures that make 100% flavor wood pellets. I would like to give one a try!
 
LumberJack, Smoke Ring, and Cookin' Pellets are the only ones that come to mind right now. I'm sure there are more and I'll post back when I remember, if nobody else does.
 
I highly recommend CookingPellets Hickory, Perfect Mix, & Black Cherry. All 3 of those pellets have excellent aroma while cooking and flavor to match. I plan to try Lumberjack brand in the near future after I finish burning through this bulk order I have from CookingPellets but to be honest I doubt I find a better pellet than the ones I'm using now. Very pleased with the quality of CookingPellets.
 
I just ordered a few bags of the Lumberjack 100% hickory to try. Found it online at Dick's for a decent price (and I had a coupon). If it is as good as people are saying I will jump on one of those bulk deals someone posted. There is a pickup spot about 30 min from me!

I also saw "Char Hickory" which is actually carried in store near me. anyone try that Lumberjack pellet?
 
I have used the char-hickory LJ pellets. I personally don't get a "hey that's charcoal" essence from it, but do I get a spicier profile from it.
I usually have a bag of it to mix it with the regular 100% hickory LJ.
I'm lucky to have a Rural King close to work, usually $9.99/20lb.
The start-up smoke show might be a little heavier with it. Which is nice when it's time to dominate the neighbors on a Saturday.

I like the char hickory myself. Use the rural king ads to get Dicks to price match.
 
I've never understood why those of you that are lucky enough to live near a Rural King end up going to Dick's and price matching instead of just going to Rural King!
 
I’m in Washington.....there is no rural king anywhere near that I know of....so perhaps that can explain the mystery. Getting the bags for 8.88 is much easier than coordinating a group buy for more.

If I had rural king near me I would go there without a doubt.
