I've actually been wondering the same thing. Ron_L is correct they are just wood.

But, here's my concern. Masterbuilt recommends soaking the wood chips. I'm not sure the reasoning there but they do. I don't normally soak wood chips but I do in this smoker.

That being said you can't soak wood pellets so I'm not sure what would happen.

Some are going to say just do it but I wouldn't just yet. If something goes wrong you'll void the warranty.

So let me do this. I got my unit direct from Masterbuilt to review. Let me ask them their thoughts on it before you do anything.

In the mean time you'll get lots of other advice. And on Saturday I'll test pellets in mine.
