Royal Oak Charcoal 100% Charcoal Pellet Review

[@robbabcock_]

Very cool! I'll probably try a bag for my Recteq!

[@gibson9516]

Just bought 7, 20lbs bags of these at Kroger. Normally $18.99. Found them in clearance for $4.19 per bag. Got them all. Never used them, thanks for the review!

[@100shadesofbeast2]

I left a few bags and got em 85 cents a bag

[@JPHBJH]

This is the first video of yours I saw and I decided to subscribe. Nice video! And I'm from Pennsylvania too and am familiar with Lancaster County

[@calypsoshoard9132]

@1:50 Nice! Nothing like pellets that refresh while they smoke! And @4:10 YES engulfing the meat! J/K looks delicious!

[@usmfan101]

I’m using these and absolutely loving them!

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Absolutely. I haven't found anything I don't like about them.

[@ParrotHead1809]

Nice review - I'll try a bag next time I see them. Thanks !

[@rpm511]

Kinda old but loved the video. I usually do double glove while lathering up and prepping my meats and just slide it off when I need a clean hand for seasoning

[@Trumpetmaster77]

New subscriber here, great cook! I like adding them to my preferred pellets. Notably a handful or two do the trick for me. Good job!

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Thank you! Absolutely! They mix very well.

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

New subscriber here, great cook! i like them pellets. i did a review on them my self..

[@hansmak7321]

Great tip on cooking on the upper level. I just found these charcoal pellets at my local store. Sure like the lack of dust in the bag.

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Absolutely! I can't really find anything that I don't like about them. And the upper rack thing definitely makes a big difference to me.

[@demondmccray8582]

I'm going to give these a shot. I have Pit Boss 1600 and I have been very disappointed in the unsmokey taste in my cooks. I knew it wouldn't be the same as my stick burns but I didn't think it would be like cooking in an oven taste either. I've tried smoke tubes and everything. Maybe my grill is too big....I don't know. Anyway thanks for the video and I will be giving these charcoal pellets a try!

[@Reignunlimited]

You must be doing something wrong. I have a little Table top Pit Boss and that thing puts out so much smoke fire trucks come running. My ribs and pork butts have smoke rings you wouldn’t believe, I’ve been using Camp Chef flavored wood, but gonna give Charcoal pellets a shot for hot dogs, burgers, and steaks. Remember wood is for long smoking cooks like brisket. Charcoal is for short cooks like this. I might even mix the wood and charcoal for best of both.

[@demondmccray8582]

@Company Owner I'm not doing anything wrong....they aren't stick burners.....It's simply not the same combustion.....Maybe your table top allows you to have more of a smokey flavor....I have a huge Pitboss 1600 house oven pretty much.

[@UplandPiper]

Smoke setting dude

[@demondmccray8582]

@@UplandPiper I've done that along with trying different pellets and everything under the sun. The pellet grill combustion isn't enough. It's currently not being used because I went out and bought a real smoker

[@UplandPiper]

@@demondmccray8582 that sucks. My CS1600 smokes great and never disappoints

[@Jeff-rm2ni]

Thanks for doing that video.. no bullshit and straight to your thoughts and opinion on them... cheers! Hopefully they are stocked soon.. Lumberjack char-hickory or royal oak???

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I like Lumberjack, but these I definitely like more.

[@chadsadventures]

U got my sub Buddy great stuff keep it up

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Thank you! I've got some interesting idea coming up. I hope you like them.

[@chadsadventures]

@@RFBSmokehouse I'm sure I will please come check my channel out when u can thanks

[@jeffhood4680]

I used them to cook a couple ribeye steaks yesterday. Did reverse sear method cooking them on the indirect side until 120 degrees. Then took off. Dried them and seared them on my EVO flattop grill to internal of 132 for an amazing crust. Things I noticed. Fed my smoker great Burned nice with a blueish smoke. Meat looked mahogany so I suspect you’d get good smoke rings with this stuff. Meat had an obvious charcoal taste but not as strong as over lump charcoal since I wasn’t vaporizing the drippings. But the taste is definitely there. Next time I’ll mix with some wood pellets to see how I like that.

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Awesome! Yeah, they don't have all of the flavor of lump or brickets, but enough to make a difference. And they mix with regular pellets. I like to mix them with Bear Mountain Gourmet Blend.

[@jeffhood4680]

Yeah I bought some bear Mountain at the same time. Got 3 different flavors so looking forward to experimenting. My local tractor Supply carries both.

[@kevengw]

your right, they are hard to find, where did you end up finding them?

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I found them at a local BBQ Supply shop near me. Home Depot has a pre-order for them going right now.

[@93ChayZ]

Just picked up a bag yesterday. Just put on some Ox Tails and beef ribs using Meat Church Holy Gospel

[@charlesglass7605]

What did you think?

[@93ChayZ]

@@charlesglass7605 honestly loved the Oxtail shit is FIRE.

[@charlesglass7605]

Thanks, I’ll give them a try, I was ready to give up on my Pit Boss.

[@93ChayZ]

@@charlesglass7605 also I just noticed yesterday you can buy sealed packs of Oxtail at Costco in the meat case 😯😮‍💨

[@koreanqpatriot4595]

Have you tried mixing them with wood pellets?

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Absolutely. I mix them with Hickory a lot. Great mix.

[@sideways8films488]

A year later are you still liking these? I’ve been wanting to try. A buddy mixes these about 50/50 with his stick burner

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I haven't honestly used my pellet grill very much lately. Mostly my offsets lately, but I still stand behind it. They have a great flavor and mix well with other types. I do wish the price point was lower though.

[@6hilltop6]

I mixed a bag of Royal Oak and Smokehouse blend

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Sounds like a great mix.

[@Random1234-j8d]

I wonder what it would be like to mix with wood pellets.

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I like them mixed with Hickory. It works really well.

[@bcubez2092]

​@@RFBSmokehouse what ratio? Thinking of doing half and half with pecan

[@RFBSmokehouse]

@bCubez sounds perfect to me.

[@Surferjo]

great video ty every try MAPLE?

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I've never tried straight Maple, just in blends. Would love to though.

[@Reignunlimited]

There’s no dust in the bag because this is charcoal not natural wood.

[@ericgomez8723]

An these be used on Traeger ?

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I've heard of quite a few people using these on Traegers with good results. You should be fine.

[@KingJT80]

i just used them for my skirt steak..came out great

[@UniversalMind-10]

Im getting a bb king vibe off the tunes

[@RFBSmokehouse]

@UniversalMind-10 Blues and BBQ go hand and hand.

[@UniversalMind-10]

Yes it does!

[@MrsCynfuller]

Where did you find these pellets?

[@RFBSmokehouse]

I found them at a local BBQ Supply store near me. I've heard you can order them at Home Depot now.

[@kabuki395]

My work have it markdown for $1.99

[@RFBSmokehouse]

Nice! I've seen people posting deals like that, I just haven seen it near me. I'd stock up.
