When my MAK 2 star was delivered, I immediately used the MAK pellets that came with it. I really like the smoke profile, kind of a sweet smelling smoke. Also, when the grill was on smoke setting, I got nearly continuous smoke (more after an auger run but always some). I ran out of MAK pellets quickly.
Next, I loaded up the hickory BBQrs delight that BP threw in with my order. The smoke smell is not nearly as sweet, but that is just personal preference. The odd thing is the lack of continuity in the smoke. I only see smoke coming out of the grill about once every 3 or 4 minutes when the auger runs.
So, my question is this. Do different pellets smoke for different lengths of time after ignition? Or, did something change with my grill? I find the latter unlikely since the change occurred with the change in pellets. If pellets smoke longer and shorter, can somebody suggest some "long smoking" pellets?
PS. Grill and firepot are clean
