Louisiana Grills55405 BBQ Pellets, 40 Lb, Wood

Has a very nice flavor great for smoking ribs!

These pellets are inexpensive, but they burn well, and the smoke flavor is as good as any other pellets I have ever used.

Great flavor

Good for price

An excellent product that burns well and provides an excellent smoked flavor. I cooked a prime rib yesterday low and slow on my Traeger pellet smoker and it came out absolutely perfect!It also arrived quickly without incident. Go for it, you won't be disappointed!

Three vendors were sold out of this and cancelled my order, but it was worth the wait. Don't like that there is a HUGE amount of dust in it, but wow the flavor is worth the wait and hassle. I keep a vegetarian diet, and when smoking veggies, it's way different than meat. A lot of blends overpower veggies, but this stuff works great. I have a Louisiana LG series pellet grill and when you cook at 180 you get a lot of smoke. Veggies, can't be cooked low and slow as they dry out and taste bad, I have to set my temp at 485 for 5 minutes a side and that tends to be the sweet spot, but not much smoke. The reason why I am putting all this out there is that I am using a tube filled with pellets to add extra smoke. This blend will last much longer in the tube than any other blend I have tried.

Pellets burn good and have a good flavor.Edit: pellets produce a dark smoke… imagine a diesel engine…. The flavor is def different than my previous pellets. I’ll use these but won’t buy these again.Edit: I cleaned my chip pan and it made all the difference! Smoker is now burning clean and the pellets have a very good flavor… I’ll def buy again. Leaving my original edit to show that I made a mistake. Guys, clean your chip pan regularly. I couldn’t believe the difference it made. All my fault.

I wasn't sold on pellet grills, I was looking to get another charcoal and/or "stick" burner for smoking. I saw several people online with videos making items with a pellet grill, so I took a chance. Pellet grills are not perfect, they still (although some are better than others) lack the ability to sear properly in many ways. At the very least you won't be searing over the entire surface of your grill like you can with a different grill type.Pellet grills, however, can be incredibly awesome. I will admit, without reservation, that my Louisiana Grills pellet grill has been extremely consistent when it comes to temperature. That is almost an understatement: if you follow the instructions to get to the temperature you want, and keep pellets in the hopper, it ill maintain that set point. Half, heck better than half, of making good barbecue is temperature control. Still, realize that pellet grills are a compromise like anything else, in this case convenience for smoke. You might have to buy something else to add that extra, but they have pellet holders for smoking on Amazon.The Louisiana Grill pellets - I buy multiple varieties (e.g. Apple, Whiskey, Hickory, et al.) and mix them together in my own ratio - work well and you know you're burning that combination with the smoke. My only request to LG would be to add more wood types if plausible. I do like other woods for various types of meat or fish: Pecan, Alderwood, Sugar Maple, and so on. For what they do provide, I've never had an issue identifying the wood while the pellet was burning.
