Bradley Smoker Bisquettes For Grilling and BBQ, Alder Special Blend, 48 Pack

Love the flavor and the ease of use. Our favorite brand to use in our smoker!

Love these pucks!

Great.

Bradley makes a popular line of rack smokers that require these disks of chopped and pressed hardwoods for use in their smoke generators. Disks come in a variety of wood mixes or "flavors" including hickory and alder and this "special blend." I have used several "flavors" in smoking ribs, bacon slabs and hams and they all work well. My favorite for versatility is "special blend." It produces a lighter smoke taste than the hickory but is a bit more assertive than apple wood. Rather than keeping a variety of these packets on hand, I prefer to go with this one.As a moderate practitioner of home smoking meats, I find the 48-count packaging works best for me. As long as I am paying for shipping and handling, I feel I need to order enough product to last a while. Smoking any cut will require from 4-6 bisquettes and larger cuts or a heavier smoked flavor will require even more of them. On the other hand, the binding agent that holds the wood chips together seems to break down after several months, even in pantry storage. Since the bisquettes are fed into the smoke generator by a pusher, the disks need to stay together while they sit in the feeder tube and while they are pushed to the ignition source.The chips do a good job of smoldering evenly and completely and the binder agent does not seem to leave any taste or aroma of its own. Given Bradley's system, this is a necessary product and it works very well.

Great flavor.

Good quality

I have multiple Bradley smokers and love the ease of using the pucks. The smokers have held up well and I still use my first one that I bought over 20 years ago. Hickory and pecan are my go to pucks.

Love this smoke flavor when I smoke Ribs, Pork Loin or Pork Butt. 1 bisquette gives about 22 minutes of smoke so about 8 are needed for a bunch of ribs. Great taste and value if you have a Bradley Smoker.
