Wood chips for a pellet smoker

[Jerod Broussard]

50/50 mixture.

[Huskee]

You gave so much surrounding information here for context that i don't even know where to begin. Don't be quite so wordy next time.

[Donw]

I know, right? Jerod usually needs at least two paragraphs to explain how to rotate a hotdog on the grill. 🙂

[fzxdoc]

What mixed with what? And why (compared to what you've been using)?

[Jerod Broussard]

Cause I feel actual wood rather than compressed wood will offer an advantage, and the new smoker accepts 50% pellets and 50% these here wood chippees.

[bep35]

What about them there wood chippees? Will they work in this here old smoker?

[fzxdoc]

Nice idea! Thanks for the additional info, Jerod Broussard .

[TripleB]

Looks like the stuff my kids used for the Hamster bedding.

[captainlee]

That adds flavor.

[RonB]

I agree.

[Huskee]

I surmise from surrounding details that you're using 50% chips and 50% pellets?

[Jerod Broussard]

By volume precisely measured thanks to translucent walls on a white bucket.

[MBMorgan]

I surmise from surrounding details that you're using 50% chips and 50% pellets?

I surmise that if you divide Jerrod’s mixture into packets of 12, each will contain six of one and a half-dozen of the other.

[Huskee]

Not quite a pitmaster's dozen, which would simply be summadiss summadat, who's counting.

[Panhead John]

I’m figuring 2 more pages of questions and we’ll have all the details needed for this post……

“ I’m figuring 2 more pages of questions and we’ll have all the details needed for this post……”

Optimist.

Nice bucket

[RolfTaylor]

That's Bouquet! (If you get it you get it!)

[Panhead John]

Beer in a crockpot. 1 can per cook.

[Panhead John]

I didn’t add the stuff I normally do, but it was ok I guess. Next time I’ll add less beer.

[itsnotmyfault]

If it comes out dry, add 1 more can beer...

[RolfTaylor]

beer and pot. A classic combination!!

[dpearce]

How does a box of mixed pellets and wood chips, along with a bucket actually end up indoors? And end up in a photo?

Jerod Broussard you must be a bachelor!

[Jerod Broussard]

6 years and counting....

[dpearce]

Jerod Broussard, ah you've then accepted what a former co-worker described as "The cure".

[jayjordan]

And still no answer as to the type(s) of wood making up the pellets and chips. 😂

[CaptainMike]

Both intriguing and mysterious. We do know whodunit, but are uncertain of how, what, and why. Such strange goings on...

[Panhead John]

Hopefully the acid has worn off and he’ll be back to clarify…..

[fzxdoc]

It was Colonel Mustard with a pair of tongs on the patio.

[Dan Deter]

It was obviously click-bait, which we've all fallen for...

[Huskee]

Jerod gets paid here by clicks

[HawkerXP]

I'd go with this one for that floral flavor.

[Jerod Broussard]

That hamster's LDL's are off the chart.

[Murdy]

I didn't know people grilled hamsters. Quick or low and slow?

[Uncle Bob]

On a spit Murdy in and out portals built in....

[Jerod Broussard]

So 50/50 is underway. Gonna take a while.

Hickory chips and some kind of Competition blend on the pellets.

[Jerod Broussard]

Nothing tapered so I am good, unless some rodent nearby had his anus slam shut and I didn't hear it.

[Huskee]

That's a 50/50 blend if I've ever seen one
