Traeger PEL419 Meat Church Blend Wood Pellets 18 lb

Overview

An 18-pound bag of Traeger's Meat Church Blend, an oak and hickory pellet mix developed with pitmaster Matt Pittman and aimed at bold, Texas-and-Southern-style barbecue smoke.

Built around a specific flavor profile rather than staying neutral, this collaboration pellet pairs oak for Texas-style beef with hickory for Deep South pork. It's a Traeger-branded product, so it's aimed squarely at Traeger pellet grill owners, though the oak-hickory mix would suit most standard pellet smokers.

• Oak and hickory hardwood blend
• 18-pound bag size
• Traeger-branded, made in U.S.A.
• No binders, low-ash clean burn

Who it's for

Traeger owners and barbecue cooks after a bolder, more assertive smoke than a mild blend gives, particularly for beef and pork, are who this blend is made for. It's a weaker choice for delicate foods like fish or vegetables that need a lighter, more neutral smoke.
