    I’ve been using a pellet smoker for 15 years. In fact my 1st pellet smoker was a Traeger that I had to have shipped from Mt Angel OR where they were made before they had set up a distribution system. I also used a tube. What was new was the Kingsford pellets - my 1st & last purchase.

    I used the long low smoke on my pork butts(14 hrs) and that’s why I was disappointed. If you had told me they were done in a kitchen oven, I would have believed you. I’m going to try some of the other pellet brands suggested here. Thanks

    Many have recommended Lumberjack. I have never tried it, but will. Thanks

    Several have mentioned Lumberjack. I will give it a try. Amazon has it.

    Good advice. I started off with an offset smoker using oak & hickory logs, moved to Traeger for 10 years before they were distributed on the East Coast & still made in Oregon & now have the GMG. I’m going try some other brands since others are having good results.

    Thanks. I will give Lumberjack a try. I use 175 degrees so we’re in the same ball park. Jim

    I used a tube as well as the smoke from the GMG. The only way I could smoke pork butts for 14 hours is to use a slow temperature for most of the time. Kingsford “claims” no filler. Thanks for your feedback.

    Actually I used a modified Jeff’s rub. I added some finally ground coffee & used a Kingsford blend. I am going back to either an all oak or an all hickory pellet. I purchased Bear Mountain, but haven’t tried it.

    Are all pellets made of all wood created equal? I smoked 2 pork butts with both a tube & the Green Mountain Grill provided smoke for 14 hours. They had virtually no smoke flavor. I used Kingsford pellets. I hope it was the pellets & not the deterioration of taste buds.

    Need a new pellet smoker, help.

    12 years ago they were built in Mt Angel, OR. Now, like others, they are made overseas.
