These pellets really are user friendly. If you've never tried food smoking before try these. If you are an expert smoker still try these. You'll find them the best thing since sliced bread!

Why pellets? During 'pelletising' the wood is sterilized and the moisture content reduced, giving a consistent, clean and reliable product. The air within the cellular structure of the wood is evacuated, concentrating the wood into a very dense form, more compact than the natural tree itself! As compared to other wood products, pellets will yield a more intense smoke faster. Pellets are ready to use straight out of the bag... No soaking!

To achieve the same amount of flavouring, you'd need to use 5 -10 times the weight in chips.

Placing them staight on the charcoal or gas tends to produce more heat than smoke. So do one of three things either 1. wrap them in foil and pierce a small hole, before putting them on the heat source. 2. place them on a griddle or metal plate to cremate them or 3. buy a dedicated metal smoker box they come in either stainless steel or cast iron and can be used again and again.
