    Pellet info wanted

    Has any one tried the Pit Boss Wood Pellets that Walmart caries, Or the B&B Wood Pellets? Are they any good?
    They are locally available where I am for the Winter so I don't have to go far for pellets.
    Thanks Dave
    By the way this is my Winter Estate it was 93°F here yesterday, have about 4 more days in the 90s then it starts to drop to a more livable temp. like mid 60s & low 70s in Jan.

    I have used both B&B and Pit Boss Both are good.

    I think B&B is a better option, That said I have no issues throwing Pit Boss in the hopper.

    B&B is in walmart in lots of places. Are they down there?

    Nice setup you got there.

    BTW Powersmoke_80 turned me onto those Pit Boss pellets a few years back. Props to him.

    Where's your pellet smoker, hiding in the weeds? (Just a little humor). I have recently used the B&B which is available all over the Houston area. They are ok but I like the Lumber Jack a little better. I get Lumber Jack over Amazon with free delivery. Bit more than B&B but I think it's worth it. I bet UPS could get a satellite fix on you and drop you a load !!!

    I think a lot of pellets depend on how the retailer handles them. I’ve used Pit Boss from a different retailer and they had a lot of dust. But, if they are still on the pallet at Walmart, they probably haven’t been "handled" that much.

    I have used both, and both work well. Best brisket I ever cooked was with Mesquite B&B pellets. If you are in Texas, HEB has the B&B pellets for less than Walmart.

      I believe Pit Boss is a Louisiana brand pellet and I agree with kmhfive in that I have had several bags from Menards that had a lot of sawdust in them but burned well without any problems. As Jon Solberg I would use B&B if I had a choice.
