And I like the results! I've used mostly Traeger pellets and definitely alder based pellets only and wanted to try something without alder. I used the pecan flavor on an 8.6lb butt with Byron's Butt Rub. Very tasty and the best butt I've done in the 6 or 7 years I've been smoking. I'm not a Traeger hater but I won't be using their pellets after I finish the 1/2 bag I have left. Next I'll be trying GMG pellets.
