Pellets
Ok, I've got to ask. I recently purchased my FEC 100, but I have not used the pellets that come with it. I have two huge bags, but I heard the base wood in it is alder with a % or flavor wood. Does/has anyone used these pellets and if so what are your thoughts on them?

I'm sure that you will get some hands on advice soon.
I would trust what the manufacturer sales and uses. I think he is pretty successful with cooking and comps. I think they sell their own brand. I would guess it is like wood, use what is available locally. Let us know how you like your new cooker. jon |

Are they Traeger pellets or Cookshack pellets? If Traeger, it depends on the source. West coast manufactured Traeger pellets have an alder base. If Chookshack, they are 50/50 hickory/oak.

"recently purchase".
CS hasn't sold traeger pellets since late last summer. If they're a white bag, they're fine. |
