You're in charge of your own smoke destiny. Pit Boss® Build-a-Blend™ Hardwood Pellets are sold separately and built to be blended. Just start with this Oak Base, add your choice of 100% flavor woods, and craft a smoke signature that's all your own.

The Oak Base is where every great blend begins. Its mild, balanced smoke and clean, even burn make it the recommended foundation of any custom mix. These hardwood smoking pellets are the steady backbone that carries your brisket, ribs, or pork shoulder while your flavor woods do the talking. Just the right amount of moisture, and built with minimal bark, these hardwood pellets deliver the thin blue smoke pitmasters chase and the optimal grill performance every cook deserves.

Building your blend is simple: start with Oak Base, layer in your choice of Pit Boss® Build-a-Blend™ 100% flavor woods, then mix using a 5-gallon bucket (or a hopper divider if you have a Pit Boss® Competition Series grill!) to blend and evenly distribute your pellet mixture. Adjust the ratios until you land a signature smoke that's all yours. Want a quick boost of flavor? Load 100% flavor woods into a smoke tube on the fly.

  • OPTIMAL SMOKE BASE: Mild, balanced oak burns low and even to lay a steady, flavorful backbone to every cook
  • YOU'RE IN CONTROL: You decide the ratio. Start with oak, layer in your flavor woods, and tweak until you land a signature smoke that's all yours
  • CRAFTED TO BLEND: Built to be the base of any custom blend. Pair Oak Base with Pit Boss® Build-a-Blend™ 100% flavor woods (apple, cherry, mesquite, hickory) for unlimited flavor combinations.
  • MADE FOR THIN BLUE SMOKE: Balanced hardwood moisture with minimal bark burns clean for the thin blue smoke pitmasters chase
  • 100%, ALL-NATURAL OAK: 100% natural, ethically-sourced, responsibly-harvested, oak hardwood (no artificial flavors, no sprays, no chemicals)
  • 20 LB BASE BUILT FOR BIG COOKS: Full base enough for blend after blend, from quick weeknight grilling to all-day low-and-slow BBQ, you're always ready to build
  • #1 TRUSTED BRAND: Pit Boss pellets are the #1 pellet fuel brand Americans trust* (YipitData, based on unit sales in the U.S. pellet fuel category, 2025)
