I Put Real Wood in my Pit Boss Pellet Smoker

I wonder if you can get a smoke tube, fill it with wood chips, and put it under the diffuser, right on top of the round pellet burner hole. I don’t want the acrid bitterness from smoldering wood.

Ditto - they won't work in a Yoder 640 either - they get jammed up in the auger. So, I used them in the smoke tube and their results were very good.

I like using wood chips in my smoke tube. I usually have 2 smoke tubes for longer cooks and just one for shorter cooks. Light one up and place it in along with the meat. Then after about 4 hours it’s burnt out so I light up the other one and put it in there. I figure 8 hours of smoke tube and the pellet smoke is enough for briskets. I get the real wood smoke that way since I use wood chips in the smoke tubes.

Thats the same results we had when we tried them on the Vertical Pellet Pro from Smoke Daddy Inc. It worked for a while but jammed up. Its a good Idea but watch out for jams. Try putting ONE large wood stick on top of you heat diffuser for more smoke. You may want to soak it before you put it on top of your heat difuser.

I have a Pit Boss Austin XL 1000 I used 2 smoke tubes filled with chips inside the pellet grill when I'm using the pellet grill

Huh. I’ve got a treager. I got it for smoking bacon. I use a amazing maze smoker at the same time but it’s nice to not have to worry about the temp falling off if you forget new pellets every hour

No issues with 50/50% mix in my Memphis Grills Pro Elite. A very powerful auger with anti-burn back features seems important. Love the LSG wood chips!

I did this yesterday and started with Smokehouse hickory chips from Amazon. Much smaller than what you used but I had a difficult time getting my temps up over 200. Chips easily went through auger and smoke was definitely there. Did this at night so I went to bed and didn't see much. long 15 hour cook that I had to finish in the oven then 12 hour rest at 155. Taste was great but not the texture. I'll try again with a 2/3 1/3 mix instead of 50/50 on my GMG.

Like Rahm Emanuel said, "You never let a serious crisis go to waste." Sounds like you now have a reason to get a new smoker. 😂

They were made specifically for the lsg pellet smokers. You're taking a chance using them in other smokers. But good luck.

Can you get a smoker box to add on the grill?

If nothing else, load up a smoker tube up top! I’ll prob try that in my Traeger

Put the chips in a smoke tube

I heard that the intention is to mix the chips and the pellets fifty fifty. May have worked if you tried that. Appreciate your sharing.

missing link...? I think?... Where are you buying the wood chips?

This is why I hate my pellet grill. The taste is disappointing.

😅😅😂😂😂 that's why they say to only use them on a real American and Texas made pellet smoker! That's the Lone Star Grillz Pellet Smokers! Y'all need to go get yourself one of them LSG pellet smokers.

I will pass on wood chips in my pellets, go get u a heavy d stick burner for your pellet grill.

that is a great way to ruin a pellet smoker, nice job

It didn't work another waste of money from Texas😂😂😂😂
