Pellet Smoker Brisket - Smokin' Pecan Shell Pellets vs. A Very Popular Brand - Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you for watching my Brisket video. Check out what I think is the absolute best pellet currently on the market. Many backyard cooks want more smoke flavor from their pellet smokers and here's your answer. smokinpecan.com/

[@robeowilson9464]

To remove any doubt, the test should be repeated, but swap which smoker has which pellets. If the Treager pellets perform the same as the 1st test, then it’s the pellets. If they perform better on the 2nd test, then it’s the differences in the smokers. Not defending Treager, just recommending complete testing.

[@smithzc]

Exactly this, larger chamber likely means more fuel to keep temp.

[@ajgonzalez1876]

And if you need a taste tester....😁

[@darrenj9013]

I was thinking the same thing. I would love to see this series keep going with different brands of pellets. I never get tired of watching brisket videos

[@grillnchillruhrarea]

The larger smoker also has a larger surface area. This leads to more convection and therefore more heat loss. I would appreciate it if you would do another test with the exchange of pellets.

[@tallgom]

I like this idea! Gotta do it Joe.

[@rickf.9253]

Joe, You are still the absolute best at trimming briskets. If there were brisket trimming competitions, you would win every time! Interesting results on the cook, that's a huge difference.

[@tobygillis4189]

I have six pecan trees in my yard and have been using shells for years., they are (imo) the best smoking material ever created

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

i been telling people. the smoken pecan pellets are the best i came across. way better then all others like , treaugers and manchester pellets love my smokenpecan pellets. nice job joe

[@bugheav24]

Was very impressed by the Pit Boss pecan pellets, I did a brisket over the weekend. I know there are probably better out there but can’t beat the price point. $40 of pellets for 1 cook is crazy.

[@andrewpope204]

Great comparison video! I tried out a box of the pecan shell pellets. I smoked a brisket and pork butt and honestly there wasn't a noticeable difference from the normal pellets I use (lumberjack 100% hickory). Thought I'd share my experience with them.

[@michaelbledsoe1060]

Like others have commented swap the pellets around and see how the briskets turn out. I use a stick burner offset, and have no experience with pellets, but 35 lbs seems like an excessive amount. Always enjoy your posts.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Michael. I'll have to let my funds recover after this one. I actually gave the Traeger brand the upper hand buy using them on my YS1500. The YS1500 produces a more smoky flavor that's really close to an offset because of its design. The YS1500 had a heat management plate with different size holes that allows more smoke and small flames to come up and flavor the proteins. I've used other brands on my YS1500 including Smokin' Pecan and I've never burned through this many pellets. Thanks for watching 👍

[@jcsftwre]

WOW! What a big difference between the two pellets. Thanks for the video.

[@kennyplatt6064]

Smoking Pecan pellets have been my favorite so far.

[@RaiderGraf]

I've used the Smokin Pecan pellets in my PitBoss and they are fantastic! Great flavor and nice, Instagram-able smoke rings

[@CoolJay77]

Great work Joe. I'll need to give the Smokn' Pecan Shells a try.

[@oldgandy5355]

Try using the Traeger pellets in BOTH smokers for a side by side test to determine whether it was the pellets or the size difference of the two smokers which caused the larger one to consume at a higher rate. With more surface exposed to the outside temperature you should expect the to larger smoker to use more pellets. Once again, in the 18 minutes it took to watch your video, I almost starved to death.!

[@stevegrieb6596]

The Traegers really aren't a good value. They cost out the wazoo and do not perform well. Bear Mountain are good if you live close to a local Academy or a local grocery that carry them. Pit Boss aren't world class, but they are a good value. Really cost effective, and available at WalMart. Usually my second choice when my grocery is out of Bear Mountain.

[@tobygillis4189]

Simple science, it takes more heat to keep a larger smoker at same temp as the smaller one.

[@oldgandy5355]

@@tobygillis4189 Exactly. But sometimes you gotta run the experiment yourself before it sinks in.

Hi bought a 20 pound box of the smoking pecan pellets right after they hit the market. I absolutely love them they do burn hotter but they burn much slower than my standard pellets do the pecan shell pellets is all I use now amazing product

[@justinengle6720]

I finally bought a tailgate pellet cooker. Used traeger pellets because it was a combo deal. My wife and I wondered why the cooker won’t reach a higher temp sometimes. We tried a different brand of pellets - and boom! Temp went higher easily. Not to knock traeger pellets with my limited experience with pellet cookers - but it sure seems that they don’t stack up to some other brands. Ordering the pecan pellets now! Thanks Joe!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I know they burn really fast but not hot. I appreciate you watching 👍

[@gofy8481]

I have a ys640. Formerly I owned a Pitts and Spitts Maverick. First, the Yoder blows away the Pitts and Spitts in every way. Period.. So I have done a few smokes now, (Pastrami,Brisket, Chuck Roast Burnt ends and sausage). The Smoking Pecan Shell Pellets are fabulous. Great smoke and taste. You can see and taste the difference, I have used just about all other pellets. These work. I also like their box they come in. I think they are more expensive, but I don't care about that at all.

[@thorjustin95]

Good info, especially useful when cold smoking with pellets.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Yeah buddy. These pellets would be great for cold smoking. 👍

[@edwardcompton9767]

I just wanted to thank you for recommending the smoking pecan pellets they are amazing

[@diogenes505]

I concur. I have been using my pellet smoker for about a year. I have been burning B&B or Bear Mountain brands. Last weekend I smoked a pork belly using Traeger Pecan pellets. What a difference! The Traeger burned like pulp wood. I easily used twice the amount of pellets for the same smoke AND there was a huge pile of ash in the firepot and bottom of the smoker. Won't be using Traeger pellets again.

[@Error-rc9es]

you know if you're going to go as far as to double wrap these things and still use pounds and pounds of pellets cooking them to completion, maybe consider moving to a nice oven at the wrapping stage instead and save a bit on fuel, since they're definitely not getting anymore smoke lol.

[@Trumpetmaster77]

Interesting test, that’s quite a bit of pellet consumption. I’ve never tried the trager brand but both briskets look great!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Louie. It was my first time and it's crazy how fast they burn. 👍

[@dwaynewladyka577]

An interesting comparison. Pretty good looking briskets. Cheers, Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️

[@jimmydean1147]

Awesome video Joe! I have to say, I bought my 1500 becuase of your videos. That pellet consumption is similar to what I see on my 1500 in the winter months here in Michigan. I did try traeger pellets in mine and noticed a not so Smokey flavor, thus a switch to bear mountain bbq pellets and have seen better results as far as smoke flavor. I’d be curious to see 2 more comparisons: Swap the pellets between the 640 and 1500. Wood in the 640 and pecan in the 1500 And to use a a different pecan pellet besides the traeger to see if it’s an actual quality of pellet for the cause of high consumption.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hey Jimmy, I've already cooked with another brand and I had zero issues. Thanks for watching buddy. Here's the link to the video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKCpZX-jer6dfbMsi=3BGY2EnRu__kYb8e

[@Ry2009Ry]

Decided to try these pellets after watching this vid. They were definitely smokier than anything else I’ve tried so far. Quality stuff for sure.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Nice! Glad you enjoyed them. 👍

[@troyv8302]

Nice review Joe. I got a Weber SmokeFire and it's a pellet hog. Used Smokin' Pecan on a 13 hour pork butt and went through about 13-14 pounds. I normally use pecan pellets from Lumberjack and usually go through 18-20 pounds on a pork butt. My results are kind of similar but the difference was not as extreme but Lumberjack is a better pellet than Treager, at least from all I've read.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks buddy. I've never tried that brand but it I will. Thanks for watching 🤘

[@smokinpecan]

We appreciate the input and your giving our pellets a try!

Very cool comparison. I'm a big fan of the Smokin Pecan Pellets. I just went through my first box. 😎🔥🍻

[@smokinpecan]

Thank you for your order! We're glad to hear you enjoyed our pellets!

[@keithtrosen7954]

I did a brisket with the pecan shell pellets as well. The smoke flavor was very pronounced vs my regular lumberjack char hickory. Very good flavor. I also found I burned about 18# of pellets on an 11 hour cook. I usually go through 13-14# of lumberjack. The flavor in my opinion is worth the cost difference. I used a porter road brisket for the first time with these pellets and it was very good. But the extra money for the brisket and pellets ($155) I consider a treat and will probably stick to the choice packets I can get locally and the lumberjack pellets for my cooks. And will use my reverse flow offset with hickory if time allows to get the smoke. I tried traegar pellets one time, never again. Cost more and burn up fast and produce way more ash. Awesome video, keep up the great work.

[@stevel54]

Very confusing, you started out saying you were to compare pecan wood pellets versus pecan shell pellets. Throughout the video you always talked about the YS model versus the other model with pecan pellets, even at the end it was not clear which was the pecan wood versus pecan shells, I really didn't care which grill did what.

[@95SLE]

Saving a box of the Pecan Pellets for a Thanksgiving brisket cook. TY for the video. Both briskets look like perfection.

[@stevegrieb6596]

Yes, I quit using Traeger pellets a while back. Poor performance for the high price. One of my local grocers is now carrying Bear Mountain and I am very happy about that.

[@madrizz01]

love this demonstration and examples. real world demo's. the so called popular brand is not always the best. Thanks for sharing

[@matthewmiller4113]

I would argue the amount of pellets used was due to Traeger pellets. I’d of went with Pit Boss, Bear Mountain, or Lumber Jack. Traeger has too much filler. Any cons you've seen from Pecan Shell pellets? Clogging, resin build up or anything?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I agree. Not that I've had. I vacuum out the entire firepot prior to every cook to avoid issues but I do that with every pellet. 👍

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you 👍

[@BrisketMedic]

Both looked great Joe. I wonder if the pellets affected the ring or if possibly the briskets just may have coke off differently aged beef. Do you feel the larger chamber contributes to more pellet use? That is a ton pellets to use, would more thermal mass inside the chamber help? I’ve always been told that pellets lack smoke flavor due to them burning too clean. (The wood making them is too clean) so I makes since for the shells to have better smoke and flavor, in my opinion. Great video Joe.

[@llittrel1]

Hey my Friend i have a question, I made 25 lbs. beef brisket summer sausage using ps seasoning, on my pellet grill. i went according to the instructions, after the ice bath and cut one open, the meat stuck to the casing and it was very watery, it tasted very good. What did i do wrong ??.

It sounds like it wasn't chilled enough. Next time, leave it in the ice bath a bit longer and place them in your fridge overnight before you open one up. 👍

[@crashcopter6000]

You're a master cook and I sincerely appreciate your videos. I totally agree with the smoke levels, but are you saying that if you put the exact same pellets in both smokers you'd use about the same amount of pellets over a long cook?

[@ingelri2]

My argument would be that the YS1500 is having to maintain a larger space at temperature, and that's what's causing it to use more pellets.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Your argument would be valid IF I hadn't already used my 1500 to smoke briskets. Watch this video where I only half a hopper of pellets at 225° which is 10° higher than in the video you saw. 👍kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKCpZX-jer6dfbMsi=0MgrasWz_SkW35di

[@ingelri2]

@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ valid rebutal. Thanks for the link.

[@bobbyd_cg]

You will also consume more fuel for the larger smoker, the 1500 has 2x the area to heat and maintain a constant temp. So it’s not 100% comparative to say it’s the pellets cooking hotter so it consumes less. Switch the pellets on the smokers and I bet you will still consume more on the 1500.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Not true, watch this video. I only used about half a hopper in 9 hours and the temperature was 10° hotter. Treager pellets are no Bueno. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKCpZX-jer6dfbMsi=ci2aJsXW1zWmMhH1

[@RumandCook]

Traeger pellets are one of the worst brands on the market. I'd be curious to see another head-to-head, swap smokers, and use a better brand. Also, why fat cap down? On the top rack, you have all that hot air moving over the fat cap. Fat cap up is better on the 640 in my opinion. Great trim! I could use some of them skills :)🍻

That's false information. In fact, pellet smokers that are constructed of thinner metals burn through more pellets.

[@WhatscookingatDavidsStove4019]

one thing to consider is that the Traeger pecan pellet is only one third pecan. two thirds oak.

[@killerbung]

Since the smoking pecan pellets have a significant increase in cost, I wonder what the cost comparison would be against other brands of pellets. For example, on another video, I seen they were comparing the smoking pecan pellets to traeger pecan pellets, and the traeger pellets burnt up over twice as fast. Be nice to see a cost analysis.

[@isaachodges4001]

You need to do this test again. Swap the pellets and smokers.

[@brianveestrom6784]

very cool comparison Joe. I started using pecan on beef at a recommendation of a friend. It is so much different from other smoke flavours. It was not my favorite, but it grows on you. Beef and pecan is a great taste combo. Chicken too. Take care and ROCK ON! =)

[@MAKEITSF]

Swap the cookers/pellets and do the test again. I’d watch to see the comparison to see how the pellets and flavor faired.

Lmao, i use meat church and steak blend pellets from traeger for every brisket cook on my timberline xl. I go 200 overnight for 12 hours on super smoke and after a wrap in butcher paper another 2 to 3 hours at 250 and use roughly 13lbs of pellets. Not saying i dont believe you, but that could also be a sign that your smoker doesn't hold temp very well.

[@thomasihle2279]

Rather than choosing Traeger Pecan pellets for the comparison test, it would have been more reasonable to use Lumberjack or B&B Pecan pellets.

Why the other brands and not Traeger? B&B doesn't even make their own pellets.

[@jonmorhous4460]

What percentage of the pecan wood pellet was actual pecan wood? The package says its a blended hardwood. Could have hickory, alder and other woods in it causing the faster burn and lighter flavor. The pecan shell pellets were 100% pecan shell. IMHO, the results would have been improved if the brand in the 1500 was 100% pecan wood pellets. The burn rate might not change, but the smoke flavor could be more infused in the meat. Great video though.

[@jcrewguy123]

I've always been curious as to using nut shells (pecan, walnut, etc) to create better smoke flavor using a pellet grill, so thanks for doing this. It is interesting to see that basically a "waste" product (pecan shells) is so expensive at $33 for 20 pounds (where as even "premium" pellets like Knotty Wood are $24 for 20 lbs) Sounds like a lot of profit margin for Smokn' Pecan. I've always avoided the Trager pellets and your test just confirms that. They are a "pecan blend" so hard to know what percentage is actually pecan wood vs other compressed wood dust.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Well Scott, if the Smokin' Pecan Pellets burn hotter and last twice as long is it worth it at that point? What about the thousands of dollars in equipment and labor to make and box these pellets? Don't knock them before you try them. 👍

[@tobygillis4189]

One point...it does and will always take more pellets to keep the larger smoker at the same temp as the smaller one. That's just simple science.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Not necessarily. That's the reason I warmed up both smokers for one hour. The larger 1500 will take a bit longer to heat up all the metal but at 215°, the pellet usage should be way closer than 2 1/2 lbs vs just over 1lb on the 640. Thanks for watching 👍

Traeger pellets are not good .. I cater with a pellet smoker and stopped using Traeger pellets, they do burn faster, they are ofter shorter and not so dense as other pellets hence why they burn so fast and the burning fast means less smoke. Love your work.

At $32 a 20# bag for the Smokin’ Pecan, I’d be forced to use them in my Silverbac for lesser cooks like chicken, pork ribs, tri tips. Say $60 for a Costco brisket, and around $28 for fuel.
