Dear All:
I am new to this forum...I hope this is the proper spot to post this...
I recently purchased a Traeger. I have been smoking on a traditional smoker for 20+ years...I wanted something that I could walk away from for more than 20 minutes...and smaller batches. I have used it a few times & overall, am satisfied. I added an "amazen" box but still am not getting the penetration I would like. i'm still monkeying around with wrapping, not wrapping, water pam, no water pan...etc. The temp control is sloppy. 225 rarely hits even 220 and spends most of the time closer to 210. So, I went to 250 which ends up at 235-242...Not the end of the world. i'm not giving up. Overall, i'm very satisfied.
Here is my question: Is there a charcoal pellet on the market? In other words, a plain pellet that will generate the heat w/o the smoke flavor.
Thanks in advance,
Rob
