Great value, great quality

This is a very nice blend of hardwoods for a very pleasing flavor. At $15 for 40 pounds I dare you to fine a better deal, particularly at this quality level.

Exceptional value.

Purchase these as an alternative to my regular brand. The price was right and after several uses I can say I do like them as much as what I typically use. Wish Sams Club would stock these year round.

Highly recommended these

I buy these every time I am in Sam’s. We have a couple pellet smokers and these are great. The only drawback is they have gone up in price. But what hasn’t?

Smoken for fools

Love the smoke from these pellets they work perfectly in my Big Tex Elite. The smoke flavor is perfect for pori, beef & chicken. I buy and use these for all my smoking and bbq needs. They do a good solid job on smoke salmon and trout as well.

Great quality, cheap price

I love these pellets! I hope Sams keeps selling them. They areca reason to keep my subscription. They are very inexpensive and my smoke meats tast great. No auger or heat control issue in my RecTeq with these pellets either.

Good smoky pellets

Great pellets, never had any issues with them. I think they taste just as good as any competitors name brand. My go to pellet unless I’m not near a Sam’s club.

Sam’s BBQ pellets

These all-wood pellets are a tasty blend of woods that gives a very tasty flavor to all the meats we like to smoke. The price is especially nice and quite reasonable

Better Than Name Brand

I smoke at least 50 lbs of meat every month. These pellets burn clean with great smoke flavor. Huge savings over big name brands that sell 20 lb bags. You get 40lbs at less cost!

I have been using these in my Rectec grill for years, i have had some issues of late with the auger jamming. According to the manufacturer it can be caused by pellets tha are more than 1 inch long. i want to continue to use but can't put up with failed cooks that cause unfinished meats. Will likely switch to another brand in tje future.

Adds a weird, funky flavor I've never had before.

Not great. Ran out of our other pellets before starting some chuck roast in our Traeger. I smoked for quite a few hours then braised. Used for shredded beef tacos. The meat tasted weird. I thought it might've been a weird seasoning, but something was “off” with the flavor. Fast forward to Valentine's Day. I smoked and reverse sear New York strips for wife and I, which I've done before and tasted amazing. Didn't give much thought and just made sure pellets were full using this same stuff. My first bite of steak and there was that weird flavor that I experienced when I smoked the chuck. It's hard to describe the taste. It's like an added fake meat flavor. So weird. I was so frustrated that these steaks were wrecked with the funky smoke that these pellets produced. I've cleaned these out of my smoker and I will trashing the rest of these pellets. No good.
