TIPS ON SMOKING

Pairing wood pellets with a specific type of food will depend on the preferences of the user.
This page can be used as a general guideline for acquiring the ideal flavor.
• Wood pellets made from hickory, pecan, apple, cherry or mesquite typically burn slower and
produce more smoke over longer periods of time.
• Do not pre-soak the pellets before use.

Mild and sweet flavor with a
slight hint of fruity flavor. Each
species of apple wood should
offer a slightly different flavor.
Apple smoke produces an
attractive browning effect
Light and fruity flavor.
Hickory is aruably the favorite
wood for smoking. Hickory
produces a very strong flavor
so we reccomend starting slow
with this wood.
Light and sweet.
This wood burns very hot so
be aware. Much like hickory,
mesquite produces a strong
flavor.
Blend of fruitwoods &
hardwoods for sweet, spicy &
savory flavor. Use these pre-
mixed pellets when in doubt.
Produces a light smoke that
offers a sweet and nutty flavor.
