Traeger BBQ Wood Pellet

The Traeger barbecue pellet is much more than noble and completely natural wood fuel. It is the secret ingredient that will enhance the flavor of everything you prepare on the grill. Each variety will impart the nuance of its aroma to the food, elevating the flavors and ensuring that the pairing is perfect.

Ideal for cooking with the flavor of firewood and essential for smoking, the slow combustion and precise temperature control achieved with Traeger grills allows the pellet to burn very slowly, gradually providing the perfect burn while infusing the food with the optimal wood flavor. A complete experience!

Each variety is ideal for pairing with different foods, thus highlighting their flavor even more:

• Apple: apple wood pellets pair wonderfully with pork or poultry. It is a fruitwood that adds a sweeter and subtler flavor and is also perfect for cooking seafood or baking all kinds of bread doughs, pies, or cakes.
• Pecan: made from the wood of the pecan tree, this pellet is very versatile, perfect for cooking beef, pork, poultry, vegetables, and adding a very interesting touch to baked breads, pies, or cakes.
• Hickory: American hickory wood pellets provide more intense and powerful notes, making them perfect for cooking game pieces, aged beef, and vegetables.
• Signature Blend: the Signature Blend pellet is made from a combination of walnut, maple, and cherry woods, resulting in a very aromatic mix that is ideal for pairing with any food. Meats, fish, vegetables, and baked doughs acquire a smooth and nuanced aroma and flavor, thanks to the slow combustion of the pellet.

Considered an additional ingredient in barbecue cooking, essential for enhancing flavors and aromas, Traeger pellets have FSC certification, sourced from responsibly harvested wood. Made in the U.S.A., Traeger oversees the entire process from sawmills to point of sale to ensure compliance with its highest quality standards throughout.

Traeger pellets are made from hardwood scraps and sawdust, avoiding waste and contributing to forest cleanliness, which helps minimize the risk of fire spread. They are completely natural, with no fillers, bark, or added binders. The only additional ingredient is food-grade soybean oil, used as a lubricant for machinery. In some special flavors, it is used to combine and balance them. The drying process gives them the correct moisture before pressing them into pellet form.
