Pit Boss® Build-a-Blend™ 100% Hickory Hardwood Pellets are made for grillers who'd rather create their own flavor than settle for someone else's blend. Layer them over your Oak Base foundation, dial in the ratio, and experiment your way to a hearty, smoky signature that's all your own.
Hickory is the heart of American barbecue, a strong, hearty smoke with the savory, bacon-like flavor most people picture when they think low and slow. It was made for the long haul: beef and pork brisket, racks of ribs, and pulled pork that falls apart at the touch of a fork. Bold enough to carry the big cuts, it still plays nicely with poultry and vegetables when you want that classic BBQ backbone. This is the taste of the backyard pit, perfected.
Building your blend is simple: start with Oak Base, layer in your Apple and any other 100% flavor woods, then mix using a 5-gallon bucket (or a hopper divider if you have a Pit Boss® Competition Series grill!) and adjust the ratios cook after cook until you nail your signature smoke. Want a quick boost of hearty, classic BBQ flavor? Load 100% Hickory into a smoke tube on the fly.
