Pellets
The hickory flavour is our go to. The Traeger brand pellets are extremely high and are a must have if you buy a Traeger.
For a very distinct, fruit flavour go with this option. If you are going with chicken or ribs this would be our preferred option.
Traeger Apple 100% All-Natural Wood Pellets 20lb
Gear
The most reasonably priced Traeger. Our families choice for smoking brisket, steak, chicken and ribs.
Traeger Pro Series 22-Pellet Grill and Smoker in Bronze TFB57PZB
Similar to the PRO 22, but bigger so you can cook multiple meats at the same time. If you have the extra money to spend and have a larger family, this would be worth it.
Traeger Pro 34 Electric Wood Pellet Grill
We use this for storage for our pellets. The air tight lid keeps the pellets fresh.
Traeger BAC637 Stay Dry Pellet Storage Bin 22lb
When you are pellet smoking you need to make sure that you dont burn yourself. This makes moving the meat off the smoker and putting it to rest an easy task.
A go to recipe for our family for smoking brisket. Be prepared to spend the whole day, nd make sure your spritz the meat every 30 minutes to keep it moist.
