Using Grilling Pellets to Make Cocktail Drinks (Yes, You Read that Right)

Do you want to use your pellet grill to make a holiday party, unlike any other holiday party? Have you been looking for more ways to incorporate your pellet grill into your cooking? You can use your pellet grill to make cocktail drinks. No, that’s not a misprint, nor is it an exaggeration. You can use your pellet grill to make some of the best, most refreshing, and most delicious holiday cocktails. Of course, whether it’s cocktails or shrimp tails, our grilling pellets always set the standard for pellet grilling.

Utilizing Your Pellet Grill for Making Drinks
No, when using your pellet grill for drink making, you do not put the drink inside the pellet grill. Instead, what you do is put some of the ingredients that go into the drink inside the pellet grill. That opens up, quite literally, an entirely new world of smoky flavors (among others) that you just can’t get through any other method. If you’re tired of the same old same old drinks, then this is a new way forward.

One of Our Favorite Cocktail Recipes
A beloved recipe of ours is for the “Smoked Blackberry Bourbon Spritz.” It has everything a holiday cocktail should: taste, refreshment, zing, and alcohol. First, preheat your smoker to 200 degrees. Then, take half a basket of blackberries and put them on your pellet grill in a saucepan for 20 minutes. During that time, combine the lime zest and sugar on a shallow plate. Then, run a lime wedge over the rim of any glasses you’re going to use and dip those in the mix on the shallow plate.

Bringing it Together
After twenty minutes on your pellet grill, the blackberries should be plenty smoked. Then, you can put them in a glass pitcher or, as many use now, a cocktail shaker. Once the blackberries are in there, put in mint leaves, lemon juice, and honey, for a sweet, sweet taste. For an even sweeter taste, put in the other half of the basket of blackberries. Sure, you can smoke more than half, but that might be a bit much. Once you’ve put all of that together, add in the bourbon. For the last touch, you can put in ice and just a little bit of ginger beer. That’s a holiday cocktail that elevates any party.

Grilling Pellets: Gifts that Give All Year Long
This is just one of the many cocktail recipes you can use a pellet smoker for. There are many others. Of course, cocktails are just one of the many, many things that can be improved through a pellet grill. Our pellets can improve any kind of pellet grill and dish, bar none. To see for yourself, you can buy our pellets through our site or through the Home Depot site.

Appetizer Barbecue Pellet Recipes to Start the Holiday Party Right

Do you want to make the best appetizers for your holiday party? Are you tired of, every year, putting out the same grocery store cheese plate, or that plate of just shrimp? Sure, those are fine, but if it’s been many years, you’re probably aching to switch it up. A pellet grill can, as you probably know, be used to cook practically anything. Below are some recipes that you can use our barbecue pellet/Knotty Rub for to make this holiday truly one of a kind.

The Importance of Holiday Appetizers

At a holiday party, people don’t always come on time. Some come very late, some come very early, some leave before the big dinner and some come right before the big dinner, too. If you’re entertaining, you want to be able to entertain when people arrive. That’s where the appetizers come in. When you have great appetizers, you have something you can offer to anyone regardless of when they show up. You’ll know you’ve offered great appetizers when either A., they disappear quickly, or you hear guests say “I ate so many appetizers I’m not ready for dinner.”

Healthy Appetizers with a Barbecue Pellet

So many of the traditional holiday appetizers are the furthest thing from healthy. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, (it is the holidays) but some may want to include a healthy appetizer option. This “smoked bacon-wrapped asparagus” happens to be delicious and easy on the diet. In addition to the bacon and asparagus, you’re going to want olive/avocado oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. The key move: wrap three to four asparagus spears in one piece of raw bacon. After you’ve preheated your smoker to 180F for five to ten minutes, smoke the asparagus and bacon for ten minutes. Then, crank the heat to 350F and smoke for another 10.

A Trip to Almost Almond Heaven

Almonds can be a great appetizer in and of themselves. Of course, for the best almonds, you don’t just want to open up a canister and put it on your table. Instead, follow this recipe for smoking your almonds with olive oil and kosher salt. To get the best, most almond tastes imaginable, of course, you want to use our almond wood pellets, too. In fact, throw our Knotty Rub in the mix and you’ll have the kinds of almonds that your guests are going to be asking you for the recipe for a long time to come.

Appetizers and the Main Course

The above are just recipes for some appetizers, there are many others. Indeed, at our site, you’ll find plenty of recipes that are great for “finger foods” before the main dish. You can find plenty of great recipes for main dishes on our site, too. For the best results, you can buy our pellets through our site or through that of The Home Depot right here.

Tips for Your First Time Cooking With Almond Wood Pellets for the Holidays

Is it your first time entertaining at home for a big holiday party with your pellet grill and you want to get it right? Did someone recently give you a pellet grill and you aren’t sure where to start? No matter what grill you have or what you’re cooking, our almond wood pellets can elevate it. That said, there are some beginner tips for your first holiday that may not have come with the instruction manual. These can help you with the 2022 holidays as well as those for many years after.

Start at the Beginning

You’ve probably heard the old cliche “no one plans to fail, they just fail to plan.” Yes, that can happen with pellet grill cooking, too. It’s natural to be excited about cooking for the holidays, but just “drawing it up in the dirt” can lead to disaster. Instead, have a plan. Know what you’re going to cook and, equally important, how long it’s going to take for you to cook it. That way, you can start planning out days in advance, leaving as little as possible to chance on the big day (as you know something is going to go wrong/present obstacles on the big day).

Yes, Cook the Big Meal, But…

Most people, when cooking on a pellet grill for the first time (or even one of the first times) don’t always realize all of the many different things that can be cooked on a pellet grill. Many, when cooking for the holidays, use their oven and their pellet grill simultaneously. For example, you could be cooking your main course in the oven while taking care of all of the appetizers, sides, and even desserts on your pellet grill. That way, you can provide more and better food to more folks. Utilizing all of your resources is a great way to provide the best entertainment experience.

Tools for the Job
Pellet grill cooking is efficient all year long. However, in the winter, in the cold, when the temperatures have fallen, your pellet grill is going to need more pellets to be able to generate the heat you want. That’s not a failing of the pellet grill by any means; that’s just science. So, be sure to be stocked with as many pellets as you can. Depending on how cold it is, it can take up to 40 to 50% more pellets to cook something in wintry conditions than in summer ones.

Almond Wood Pellets All Year Long
The above tips will serve you very well during the holidays, of course. But, each of them will also be a great boon during a family dinner, tailgate, picnic, or any other time that you’re cooking for plenty of folks. No matter who you’re cooking for or what you’re cooking for them, our pellets can make it that much better. You can find them at our site or that of The Home Depot.

The Best BBQ Pellets Tips for Cooking on a Wintry Day

Are you concerned about what to do if you need to cook on your pellet grill and the temperature drops significantly? Do you have worries about pellets cooking in the snow? So many of us plan out the perfect cooking schedule for the holidays, only to find that the climate does its best to alter them. We’ve written before about doing what you can to protect your grill, come what may. These are some more tips from our BBQ pellets team to help you and your grill to be ready for a holiday regardless of what the weather report says.

Proper Storage for Best Results

In addition to taking care of your grill, of course, you want to take care of your pellets, too. If you’re like so many, it can be natural to just put your bag of pellets down on the cold concrete until you need them again. However, that might not be best for your pellets, as it can lead to any number of problems for them. To get the most out of your pellets when storing them, consider elevating them on a shelf or even just putting them on a couple of pieces of wood.

When to Clean

You know that you have to clean your grill, but, if you’re like many others, you aren’t sure exactly when to clean it. Regardless of the temperatures, you’re going to want to clean it around every twenty pounds of pellets or so are used. Not only does this make sure that you keep your grill clean, but it’s also easier to remember. You don’t get caught in that trap of “wait, how many bags of pellets did I use after I cleaned it last?” “Every twenty pounds of pellets and clean” is easy to remember.

To Protect, Cover, and Transfer

What do you want when you’re outside in the cold? Right: to stay warm. Your pellet grill wants the same, too. So, make sure to have a blanket on it outside. That will keep it from the elements, too. That said, don’t cover your grill too much. Do not use it somewhere within a confined space, inside your garage, or something. That can lead to any number of dangerous problems. Speaking of covering, cover your hands, too. You may be cold but the inside of the grill isn’t, so wear those heat-resistant clovers no matter what.

BBQ Pellets for Best Results

Those tips above can help you to keep your grill in better condition in the cold or any other time of year. To keep your grill operating at its best, use the best barbecue pellets. That’s where we come in. Here at Knotty Wood, you can find the kinds of pellets that make any dish that much better. You can find ours at our site or at The Home Depot’s site too. 

Best BBQ Pellets Grilling Practices for Thanksgiving Cooking

Are you wondering how you’re going to get all of the cooking done on your pellet smoker on the “big day?” Whether you just started with your pellet smoker or you’re an expert who’s been cooking for many years, cooking for Thanksgiving can be a bit intimidating. So much food to cook for so many people – it’s easy to feel a bit overwhelmed. Below are some tips that can help to “ground” anyone for the best possible cook, be they a master or novice. Of course, one of the best tips is to use the best BBQ pellets – Knotty Wood pellets.

How Many Pellets for Pellet Cooking on Thanksgiving?

On the subject of pellets, it’s easy to get nervous thinking about “how many do I need?” A good rule of thumb to keep in mind is: “one pound per hour of cooking at regular temperatures.” However, the keyword in the last sentence is “regular.” In late November, depending on what you’re cooking, you may be cooking at some higher temperatures that are anything but “regular.” To that end, it’s better to have one too many pellets than one too few.

Slow and Steady Wins the Race on Your Temp Gauge

When you want everything to be perfect, it’s natural to get caught up in the details. So, when you see your pellet grill temperature go up or down by a few degrees, it’s normal to feel like “oh no, this cooking is not going well.” But! It’s normal. That’s simply how it works sometimes. The temperature you set is not a constant, but rather, an average. With all of the variables in place, your temperature is going to fluctuate a bit. Don’t let it stress you out and keep at it.

Clean and Covered

Some of the best ways to ensure a great Thanksgiving cooking experience can be handled long before Thanksgiving arrives. For starters, you can’t go wrong with having a cover for your pellet grill. That keeps the elements out (in this context, “elements” can mean anything from snow to rain, to water, to leaves, to animals, and so much else). By that same token, before your pellet grill gets called up for “the big game,” so to speak, make sure that it’s as clean as possible.

Best BBQ Pellets for the Best BBQ
The right BBQ pellets can make or break a Thanksgiving dish. Here at Knotty Wood, we make pellets that can go with just about anything that may go in your pellet smoker. Whether it’s the turkey, the stuffing, the mashed potatoes, the desserts, or anything else that you decide to cook for Thanksgiving, our pellets can add a unique flavor for an even more memorable Thanksgiving. To see what our pellets can do for you, you can go through our site or buy them at The Home Depot’s site, too.

Beyond Turkey: Smoking Stuffing on Your Wood Barbecue

Are you tired of eating the stuffing out of a box every Thanksgiving? Do you want stuffing that doesn’t taste like it was just microwaved a few minutes before you arrived? Instead of being a Thanksgiving guest, do you want to be a Thanksgiving hero? If so, we may have a suggestion for you: smoking your stuffing. It’s not a joke, it’s a delicious reality. With our wood barbecue pellets and a pellet smoker, you can make a stuffing that will make the other side dishes at Thanksgiving look like, well, just “stuff.”

Stuffing Best Practices

So many of us, when we cook turkey and stuffing for Thanksgiving, we put the stuffing inside the turkey. It seems optimal, a great way to add flavor while saving time and space. However, now with pellet smokers, you can take your stuffing to the next level. In fact, we strongly recommend that you don’t put the stuffing inside the turkey (even if the turkey is going to be cooked in your pellet smoker). Cooking the stuffing separately.

The Secret

However, just because we’re saying “cook the stuffing separately,” that doesn’t mean “cook it by itself.” Depending on your pellet smoker, you may be able to cook the turkey and the stuffing inside the smoker at the same time. That said, the big secret to cooking your stuffing in a pellet smoker is to put the stuffing in a cast iron skillet. This helps you get the best cook and the most flavor out of your stuffing.

Stuffing Made to Fit Your Family

“Stuffing,” as you’ve probably noticed if you’ve been to a few different Thanksgiving dinners, means different things to different people. Some folks like it as dry as possible, while others tend to make theirs with a bit more moisture, with different flavors, and so forth. How can you control whether it’s wet or dry? One way is through eggs. The eggs can make your stuffing have more moisture, whereas it can dry out easier without them. If you want to make your stuffing sweeter, then dicing an apple or a pineapple and putting it in there can help keep it moist as well as add sweetness.

Wood Barbecue for Any Holiday

Speaking of a “sweet” taste, you can get some of that from our cooking pellets. They can add a sweeter, nuttier flavor to any dish, whether it’s meats, fish, desserts, or even stuffing. In fact, you can cook more than just your turkey and your stuffing with a pellet grill: you can cook all of your dishes. To purchase our pellets, you can do so through our site or you can do so at The Home Depot site as well.

How to Use Almond Wood Pellets to Cook a Thanksgiving Turkey?

Are you cooking for Thanksgiving this year? Do you want to provide your guests with a cooked turkey unlike any they’ve had before? If so, a great way to do that is to cook your turkey on a pellet grill. That way, you can add a delicious smoked flavor to the turkey that everyone will love. For even more flavor, we strongly recommend that you use our almond wood pellets. There are some tips to keep in mind for the best Thanksgiving turkey pellet grill experience.

Best Time to Start Cooking: Before Thanksgiving

This time of year, everyone is so busy. The night before Thanksgiving is one of the busiest party nights of the year. That said, for the best results, maybe consider starting the cooking prep before that Thursday in November. How so? By making sure that your pellet grill is as clean as possible. (That means grates too.) You’re going to want to have plenty of pellets, too, especially if the weather is cold. “A few too many pellets” certainly beats “too few.”

Follow the Laws of Thaw

Should you go with a frozen turkey this year, you’re going to want to thaw it out in the fridge for a while, between three to four days before you begin cooking. Unsure how long to do so? A good rule of thumb: see how much it weighs, then thaw it in your fridge an extra day for every four pounds. Once you’re done with all that, it isn’t ready to cook yet. Rest it at room temperature for an hour or two before you begin seasoning it.

Injection or Brining

We know that there are some folks who swear by using brine and injecting their turkey. They want as much flavor as possible in their turkey, which is understandable. However, we recommend only doing one or the other; only bringing or only injecting. Why? Because you don’t want the turkey to be overpowered by too many flavors. Picking one or the other will make sure that you have a delicious turkey everyone will enjoy.

Almond Wood Pellets for Any Thanksgiving Dish

Our almond pellets are perfect for cooking a Thanksgiving turkey, giving your turkey a unique flavor unlike any you’ve had before. However, it’s not like our pellets are only exclusively for turkeys. In fact, you can cook plenty more Thanksgiving favorites on your pellet smoker: your stuffing, mashed potatoes, and so much more can be cooked to perfection on your pellet grill.

Case in point: our chuck roast recipe. Beyond simply the 3 to 4 pounds of boneless beef chuck roast, we also recommend adding yellow potatoes, baby carrots, onions, garlic, a bit of red wine, and, of course, our Knotty rub. This can make for a meal that can warm up even on the coldest day.

A Salad for Crisp Memories of Summer Past

Our “Cold Summer Salad” has everything you could want for a delicious, healthy snack at any time of the year. The tomatoes, avocados, and basil form the base of the salad, while the garlic salt, pepper, olive oil, vinegar, and mozzarella make it delicious no matter what the temperature is outside.

Almond Smokehouse Pellets: a Nutty Flavor You’ll Go Nuts For

Have you been looking for smokehouse pellets that are different from the rest? Do you want to bring a flavor that’s both delicious and unique to your pellet grill? A pellet grill is so different from a traditional grill in so many ways. The pellets you put in aren’t really like charcoal at all. The right kind of pellet can import a texture and flavor to your food that really nothing else can. Here at Knotty Wood, our almond smokehouse pellets can provide a better grilling experience.

A Versatile Flavor You’ll Love

Grillmasters all over choose our pellets to provide high heat in their pellet grills, no matter if they’re looking for low and slow smoking or if they want a beautiful sear on their food. Why? In part, because of the flavor. Our almond wood tastes as it should: with a nutty, sweet flavor that’s as distinct as it is mild. So, due to all of those qualities, it’s right for meat and poultry, yes, but also for seafood, veggies, and essentially anything else you decide to cook in your pellet grill.

An Energy Source You Can Trust

The right pellets for your grill provide more than just flavor, of course, they provide energy, too. We specifically designed our pellets so that they burn hotter as well as cleaner. By doing so, they provide an energy source that’s both more efficient and potent. The point behind all of this is to provide you with as many cooking hours per pound of pellets. Instead of having to buy a bunch of pellets just to cook a few dishes, we make it so that you can get all the cooking you want to do right with as few pellets as possible.

The Highest Quality and Purity

In the world of barbecue pellets, there aren’t a lot of regulations. So, there’s really no one checking to make sure that if someone says they’re offering “wood” pellets then those pellets are actually made of wood. Unfortunately, some companies abuse this, by putting in scraps of flooring, the remains of furniture, and plenty of other wood that you wouldn’t want to consume (or want your family and friends to consume, either). Here at Knotty Wood, we source our wood directly from local orchards. By doing so, we can ensure that it’s 100% pure and natural. No fillers, no additives, and certainly no substitutes of any kind ever – that’s our pellets.

More Than Almond Smokehouse Pellets

We’re quite proud to offer our almond pellets. However, they’re just one of the kinds of flavors of pellets that we offer. There are others, each made to the same exacting specifications. To see all that we offer, you can purchase our pellets from our site or from that Home Depot.

Hot Wood Barbecue Tips for When the Temperature Drops

As the leaves outside turn, have you begun to worry about your wood barbecue pellet grill? Are you concerned about using it as the temperatures drop? The good news is that, yes, you can enjoy your pellet grill throughout the winter. You can cook how and when you would like, regardless of the temperature outside. That said, there are some precautions and best practices to keep in mind so that you have the best possible wood barbecue grilling experience during the fall, winter, and every other season.

It Takes More to Make a Grill Hot in the Cold

A pellet grill can cook foods at a high temperature, sure. But, if your pellet grill is outside in the cold, then it stands to reason it’s going to take more to get your pellet grill as hot as you would like and keep it that way. Thus, you may find yourself going through more pellets as it takes more of them to really get your grill as hot as you would like. By that same token, it will probably take longer for your grill to get hotter, too. These are all things to keep in mind both when you’re grilling as well as before.

A Heat-Resistant Cover Can Help

As your pellet grill sits out there in the cold, there are some steps you can take to help it. Case in point: getting an insulated, thermal pellet grill cover. The strength of this kind of cover is that it makes it easier for your grill to maintain a consistent temperature. Instead of fluctuating (and dropping) with the cold weather, this kind of heat-resistant cover can help your grill to get that much hotter that much faster and stay that way.

Keep a Lid on It

So many of the people we talk to love to use their pellet grill, but, as soon as they put their food on the pellet grill, they want it to be done. We understand you go to all that trouble to cook it, you want to eat it. But, especially in the wintertime, you want to be cognizant of not opening that lid. Why? Because that means you’ll let out some heat, which means that your grill will have to work harder and harder to get that heat back and cook your food. Sure, that might not be a big deal in the middle of July, but in the middle of November, it’s an entirely different story.

Wood Barbecue Pellets All Year Round

We don’t believe that you should have to let the calendar determine when and how you decide to cook your food. If you want to make pellet smoking part of your winter rituals with your friends and family, we support you. To that end, you can get our pellets either at our site or at The Home Depot’s site.

Smokehouse Pellets for the Best Smoked Mashed Potatoes

Are you tired of having the same mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving every year? Do you want to bring the side dish to Thanksgiving that everyone wishes were the main dish? Then we can help. One thing we never tire of is showing folks all of the different things they can cook on a pellet grill. With the right smokehouse pellets, you can make the best smoked mashed potatoes.

The Ingredients for a Mash
The ingredients for mashed potatoes haven’t really changed in centuries and are unlikely to for centuries to come. With Russet potatoes (or Yukon Gold, depending on your preference) and butter, you’re good to go. However, for a bit of added zing, you can always include sour cream as well as black pepper, salt, or even our Knotty rub. To get the most out of your smoked mashed potatoes, we recommend using our almond wood pellets. They add a bit of a sweet, nutty flavor that perfectly meshes with the potatoes.

Simple Process
First, peel those potatoes into squares, halves, or whatever shape you’re comfortable making. After you’ve placed them on the rack, smoke them for about an hour. They’ll smell delicious, but, at this point, they still aren’t done. What we recommend doing is getting a big cube of butter and wrapping the potatoes in foil with it. From there, put them back in the smoker. There’s no set number here, but half an hour can work. You can eat them from here (they’re kind of like delicious potato wedges). Or, you can do the traditional mashing. Now, the mashing may be a bit more difficult than you’re used to (the outer skin will be a bit tough) but when you do so, it’s oh-so worth it.

What You Can Add
The above constitutes the basic smoked mashed potatoes. For many, they want Thanksgiving dinner to be anything but basic. How can you achieve that? By adding plenty of fixin’s such as bacon, cheese, spices, herbs, and so forth. As you’re using your pellet smoker (which you may use often to cook meats) then you may even want to top off your mashed potatoes with beef, pork, or just about anything else. That’s one of the best parts of mashed potatoes: they go with anything.

Smokehouse Pellets for the Best Thanksgiving
Speaking of something that “goes with everything,” that’s exactly what our pellets can do. No matter what you’re eating or when you’re eating it, our pellets can make your dishes that much better. You could be cooking for Thanksgiving or just for yourself on a Tuesday, and you could make something that you’ll remember for a long, long time. To get our pellets, you can buy them through our site or by doing so through The Home Depot site, too.

Best Grilling Pellets Recipes for Thanksgiving Dessert

Are you one of those people who’s more worried about Thanksgiving dessert than Thanksgiving dinner? The turkey is one thing, but for many, it’s those desserts that make for Thanksgiving magic. Indeed, there’s something truly wonderful about sitting around with the family after Thanksgiving, casually munching on desserts, and letting the meal wash over you. As you might imagine, we have plenty of great recipes for making dessert on your pellet grill with our best grilling pellets.

Best Grilling Pellets Practices for When the Temperatures Drop

As it gets colder outside, are you worried about your pellet grill? Are you thinking about bringing it in for the fall and winter, thus never grilling during those seasons? The truth is that you can still grill safely and deliciously throughout the entire year. However, there are some steps you may want to take to ensure that your grill is operating at its peak efficiency and safety (not the least of which is using the best grilling pellets). When it comes to pellet grilling as summer becomes fall and later becomes winter, keep these in mind.

You Don’t Need to Open the Lid

This may seem like an obvious one, but you may be surprised how many people do this. Of course, we all want to check on our food to see it cooking well. However, opening the lid to check it can work against that happening. It might not be the biggest deal in steamy July and August, but in the fall and winter, when it’s very cold out, this can have a detrimental effect on even the best pellet grill dish.

When It’s Cold, Have a Plan for the Food

By that same token, while the temperatures outside may be frightful, you’ll want to have a plan ready to implement to ensure that your food will stay hot. You’ll probably want to get it back to your home as quickly as possible, but you may also want to consider using something like a preheated cast iron pan or something else that can keep it very warm (depending on the distance it’s about to travel). That way, you won’t be fighting the elements when it comes to the taste and heat of your food.

Best Practices Re: Snow

To continue the line of thought in the prior section, you’ll want to get your food to and from the pellet grill fast. One great way to ensure that happens: shoveling. Make sure there’s a clear path from your pellet grill to your home. That’s not just about the taste of your food; that’s important for safety as well.

Wood Barbecue Tips for the Best of the Fall

As summer becomes autumn, have you been dreading the end of the grilling season? Does it feel like there’s no more time to grill? Sure, the temperatures may be dropping and the leaves are changing, but that doesn’t mean you have to stop grilling. Far from it. Indeed, with some accommodations to the seasons, you can grill on your pellet grill all year long. Below are some tips for those looking to get more out of their wood barbecue as fall arrives.

Try Something New

If you’re like so many of us, you’ve got your pellet grilling favorites. Nothing wrong with that at all. The only thing: if you only ever cook your favorites, then you’re precluded from adding to your favorites. That’s just some of the reasons that we always recommend folks keep experimenting. In the fall, you may have fewer occasions where you’re pellet grilling for large events, so you may get a chance to try grilling with pumpkin spice rubs, grilling cream cheese, and other things that you may not be able to work into summer’s busy social schedule.

Seasonal Vegetables

Part of what makes a pellet grill so great is its impressive versatility. You can grill so much more than just meat and potatoes on a pellet grill. Case in point: vegetables. You can grill so many different kinds of vegetables (and in so many different ways) on a pellet grill. Autumn is the perfect time to grill those fall favorites that you may not have been able to get to during the summer and spring. Sweet potatoes. Corn. Even eggplant. If there’s a vegetable, you’ll be able to grill it on your pellet grill.

Never Need a Reason to Grill

This is a big one. So many of us, rightly, associate “pellet grilling” with “special occasion.” However, you really don’t need one to be able to bust out the pellet grill. In fact, you don’t need any kind of occasion at all. “Dinner” is a fine occasion, as is “lunch,” “breakfast,” “brunch,” and “I just feel like it.” The weather and the season shouldn’t determine your grilling, your preference and your appetite should. There’s always a good reason to use your pellet grill.

That same traditionalism lends itself toward how they cook foods for a tailgate as well: leaning on traditional grills, microwaves, and so forth. However, there are plenty of great reasons to cook with pellet grills (as well as the best grilling pellets) for a top tailgate experience.

Why Pellet Grilling for Tailgates

For one, time. Yes, many of the best tailgates are planned out long in advance, making sure that everything is ready for game day. However, those same tailgate parties involve so many moving parts, so much planning, that having a way to cook that works quickly and easily can work wonders.

Ease

Pellet grilling makes tailgating easier not just in terms of time, but in terms of how much attention you have to pay to the food. If you’re like plenty of tailgaters we know, you have so much to organize that you may not have the time to check the food as you’d want. With pellet grilling, you don’t have to. There’s less checking when it comes to these pellet grills than there would be with a traditional grill.

Flavor and Fun

Of course, the main reason that folks tend to gravitate towards pellet grills more and more isn’t due to ease or convenience, it’s because they cook food like nothing else. They can enhance the flavors in your food, locking the juices in so that your food tastes better than ever before. If you’re someone who’s cooked with a pellet grill for a while, then you know that, in many cases, you can taste the difference. A pellet grill could elevate your tailgate.

Expand the Range of What You Can Grill

When people think of “grilling for a tailgate,” what comes to mind are hot dogs, burgers, and the like. Certainly nothing wrong at all with any of those (and you can absolutely cook them, and cook them in new ways, on pellet grills). But, you can also grill cream cheese, Jalapeno Poppers, and even some drinks on pellet grills. To use a football analogy, a pellet grill lets you “use the full playbook.”

Barbecue Pellet Grilling for a Winning Tailgate

Have you been looking for the best barbecue pellet recipes for tailgating? Do you want to contribute something to the tailgate that ensures everyone has a good time regardless of what happens during the game? Whether you’re tailgating the JV team on Thursdays, the local high school on Fridays, your alma mater college on Saturdays, or the pros on Sundays, we’ve got the kinds of tailgate recipes that make for a great time no matter what.

Start the Tailgate Right

Cooking for a tailgate is different from cooking for so many other kinds of get-togethers. Why? Well, for the most part, folks aren’t going to be able to sit down at a table. So, you have to consider that they’re going to be eating while holding the food in one hand and their plate (or beverage, napkin, rally towel, or something similar) in the other hand. A great place to start: our Jalapeno Poppers. These are the kinds of delicious, memorable appetizers that go down great whether you’re tailgating hours before the game or want something on the walk to the stadium.

The Main Tailgate Meal

It’s important to note that for many serious tailgaters, this is something they’ve been planning on for a long time, possibly since the end of the prior session. So, what they eat at the tailgate is going to be their main meal of the day (or, in some cases, their only meal). Thus, it’s important to have something they can eat that’s going to taste great, but also be meaty, and feel like a real meal, too. One perfect fit for this: smoked pork belly. It too passes the “you can eat this with one hand/two if you’re crafty” test while also being something that a person could eat as their biggest meal of the day, too.

Sides and More

Tailgating is about fun. So, you want foods that go great with loud music, playing catch, dancing, cornhole tossing, pre-game analysis going on in the background, and more. That said, it doesn’t mean you just have to bring some hotdogs, either. One of the more popular tailgate recipes that you’ll find at our site is our smoked cream cheese. This makes for a perfect kind of tailgate dessert. You can pop this in your mouth just as you’re ready to make that walk to the stadium for kickoff.

BBQ Pellet Grilling All Season Long

Every tailgate is different. Some tailgates are more private, just a few fans who have been going to those games for years and years. Others are enormous events, with so many people, only some of which you may know. At our site, you’ll find recipes for tailgates of every size. One ingredient that’s right for each of these foods, of course, is our wood pellets. You can find those at Home Depot’s site or through our own right here.

Of course, you can’t live on just desserts alone. Staying hydrated is important. This is especially true if you’re at an outdoor BBQ or party in the sun, where it’s easy to get overheated and dehydrated when you’re just trying to have a good time. Fortunately, this is one more area where a pellet grill can step up. If you’re going to enjoy an adult beverage, a pellet grill can help. You can use it to smoke olives or other kinds of garnishes. You can also use it to smoke a “swizzle stick” or another sort of stirrer.

Wood Barbecue Year Round
Even after the calendar flips from August to September, from Summer to Fall, there’s still plenty of grilling to be had. The truth is that, with a pellet smoker, there’s nothing keeping you from grilling how you want and when you want. Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, New Year’s – grilling can always be on the menu. For the best grilling pellets no matter what you’re eating, we can help.

Do’s and Don’ts for Beginners When Using Wood Pellets for a Pellet Grill

Did you just recently get started with a pellet grill? Does it feel a bit confusing or even intimidating? That’s perfectly understandable. A pellet grill is similar to traditional grills, but they have significant differences as well. If you’re grilling for the first time (particularly for other people) it’s natural that you want to get it right. We offer wood pellets for all pellet grill brands, yes, but we also wanted to offer some of these beginner tips below.

Do: Prepare and Clean Up

Cooking meat begins long before the grill has actually started. Many have found great success by oiling the grill grate ahead of time. Yes, that will keep the food from sticking (in fact, you may want to oil the food, too), it seasons the grill, and it also makes it so that heat can transfer faster. In the end, this can make your meat cook that much more evenly throughout. Once you’re done, be sure to clean the grill’s grate, too. In fact, do this even if you didn’t use that oil. This will lead to better food and also keep your grill in its best shape, too.

Do: Know Your Grill  

Traditional grills can produce a lot of smoke. So, when using pellet grills early on, it’s natural to try to produce smoke by bumping the settings higher. However, that’s often a mistake. See, as a general rule, pellet smokers actually produce far more smoke at settings that are lower than what a traditional grill would. In fact, as the temperature rises, they actually produce less smoke. So, to get the most smoke flavor, start your grill low. Like, as low as it can get. Do this for about half an hour to an hour. Then, crank it up to 250, 225 or so to finish.

Don’t: Rush Things

You’re grilling, you’ve got company, you want everything to be perfect… but it feels like it’s taking so long. Can’t this just hurry up? Not really. Grilling really is one of those activities that can’t be hurried. The faster you go, the more likely you are to make a mistake. One common mistake folks make: cutting into meat to check if it’s done. Bzzzt. Don’t do that. All the juices will rush out (at best). Instead, get a thermometer you can trust and stick it in there. You (and anyone who eats your food) will be glad you did.

The Right Amount of Wood Pellets for Your Pellet Grill
 
When it comes to grilling with a pellet grill, you have to know how many pellets to use. A good rule of thumb: it’s about a pound of pellets per hour of grilling. Of course, they have to be the right pellets. That’s another area where we can help. You can find our pellets at our site or at Home Depot online. You can get them for your next BBQ right here. Good luck and happy grilling!

Pellet Grilling: A Healthy Alternative

Have you been wondering whether or not pellet grilling is good for you? As a new-ish technology, are you reticent about whether or not it’s right for you and your family? These are reasonable questions to ask. No one wants to utilize something only to find years later that it had a detrimental effect on their health and the health of those they care about. Fortunately, a pellet grill/smoker can be healthy for you and yours. This is true for a number of reasons.

What to Avoid in Pellet Grilling
“Heterocyclic Amines.” You may not know what that name means (abbreviated as “HCAs”) but they’re harmful. They can make your meat unhealthy for you in a multitude of ways. Often, they’re a threat when your grilling is uneven, or you’re dealing with a “flare-up.” That’s where pellet grills come into play. With a pellet grill, it can be easier to grill meat evenly than it might have been on a traditional grill. Another way to minimize HCAs: cut out the fat. Really. Trimming the fat from your meat before you cook it can do wonders for your health.

Remember: You Can Grill Practically Anything
It can’t be stated enough: you don’t just have to grill meat on a smoker. It’s not like a regular grill. Sure, a majority of what’s cooked on these grills is meat, poultry, and so forth. However, you can also grill fruits and vegetables. We have some recipes on our site for exactly that. Additionally, you can even enhance some drinks through the grilling process. The truth is that, perhaps even more so than a traditional grill, a pellet grill is as healthy for you as you make it.

Grill Pellets: Good for the Palate and the Environment
Many folks’ concern about pellet grills and health isn’t about their health, but rather that of the environment. When dealing with some new technology (particularly one that utilizes fire) it’s natural to be concerned about its impact on the environment. Fortunately, pellet grills are better for the environment than traditional grills. Why? For many reasons, not the least of which is that wood pellets in and of themselves are far greener than charcoal is. The smoke they produce is clearer, too. Once you’re done, they actually leave less ash as well.

The Pellets (and More) for Your Grill
To get the most from your pellet grill, you want to use the best pellets. Speaking of healthy, we’ve designed our pellets from the very beginning to be as healthy as possible. That means there is none of the “fillers” or artificial ingredients that you find in other pellets. With us, you just get the pellets themselves. To see what we have to offer, you can head to Home Depot’s website or use our own.

Garlic bread is one of those items that, if you make it right, folks will remember forever. The key to garlic bread, we’ve found, is to go “all out.” Too many hear “garlic bread recipe,” and like, get some bread, maybe they toast it, slap some butter on, some garlic, and call it a day. No. That’s not how we do things here at Knotty Wood, as our garlic bread recipe indicates. Garlic salt. Paprika. Parmesan cheese. Parsley. One full stick of butter and, yes, a grill/smoker.

Just Some of the Reasons That Almond Wood Pellets are So Popular Now

With summer right around the corner, are you looking for a new way to grill? Do you want to add more flavor to your meats and veggies than ever before? Those are but a few of the reasons that almond wood pellets are one of the hottest trends in grilling. Indeed, all of the pellet grillings are experiencing a bit of a renaissance right now. With temperatures rising and spring but a few days away, folks want to entertain with the best food possible. There are many benefits to grilling with wood pellets

Simplicity
When it comes to grilling, there’s no way to do it that’s easier than pellet grilling. You load the pellets into the grill, then you set the temperature, and then you… well, then you enjoy your food. You wait for it to cook and then eat it. There’s nothing else for you to do then. You don’t have to sit there and watch it like a hawk, in fear that you’ll have to deal with some kind of grill-related mishap (as you do with so many other forms). Gone are the days of dealing with whether you have enough fuel, adjusting the air vents properly, and all of that.

Temperature Control You Can Trust
Speaking of “adjusts you don’t have to make when you grill with pellets,” the temperature. With a pellet grill, the pellet grill itself monitors the temperature. With a majority of them, the thermostat monitors any heat fluctuations. Should the heat go too far one way or the other, the grill will, automatically, send any necessary pellets to get the temperature back to where it should be. That also removes the possibility of flare-ups, too.

Grill Anything Deliciously with Pellet Grills
The above are just some of the technical capabilities of pellet grilling. Of course, all of the above wouldn’t be worth it if pellet grilling were to provide mediocre grilling. The opposite is true: with a pellet grill, you can grill just about anything you want in a fresh, new way. Sure, mainstays like beef and ribs are great for pellet grilling, but so are vegetables, creme brulee, grilled sangria, and so much more. Basically, if you think it would be deliciously grilled, you can make it a reality with a pellet grill.

Almond Wood Pellets for Your Grilling
When it comes to the pellets for your pellet grill, pellets aren’t all created equal. Unfortunately, there are some pellets that include scraps from flooring, furniture romantics, fillers, additives, and even wood substitutes. That doesn’t happen with our wood pellets. In fact, our wood pellets are as pure as it gets since they’re sourced directly from our almond wood orchard. Thus, they’re 100% pure and natural, with nothing but the highest quality almond wood. To see how they can elevate your grilling, you can order them through our site or get them at your local Home Depot.

Best BBQ Pellets: Advantages Over Other Kinds of Cooking

Have you been looking for a fresh, new way to grill? Are you tired of doing the same thing, over and over again? There are many reasons that more folks are turning to BBQ pellets than ever before. That said, if you’re going to do this, you want to grill with the best BBQ pellets. We’re quite proud of the pellets that we put out on the market, and we believe that grilling with pellets is the best way to enjoy any kind of meat. There are advantages to grilling with pellets over older, more traditional methods.

Wood Chips Burn Out Quickly
Often, BBQ pellets are compared to wood chips, which makes sense. After all, they’re both made of wood and, to varying degrees, can provide you with natural smoke flavor. However, when it comes to wood chips, those tend to burn very, very quickly. So, if you want to smoke, your meat has to be flavored at low temperatures, which invites its own host of concerns as well.

Propane Grilling: a Pain in Terms of Space
When it comes to searing meat, many folks will opt for gas grilling, propane grilling, and the like. Sometimes, however, grilling with gas gives your meat, well, a bit of a taste of that gas, of petroleum, no matter what else you do. Additionally, propane grilling units take up a lot (and we mean a lot, relatively) of space on your patio, deck, or the like. After all, you really, really don’t want to have them anywhere near your home, building, and so forth.

Charcoal Grilling: A Full-Time Job
Charcoal grilling is popular, there’s no doubt about that. Indeed, for so many, “charcoal” is synonymous with grilling. That said, it’s quite a time commitment, especially when compared to using wood pellets. Think of everything that’s involved: you have to heat up the charcoal, then, even while you’re grilling, you watch it very closely to make sure the temperature is exactly where you want it to be. Moreover, it’s going to leave something of a mess when you’re done, too. So many of our customers have told us they tried pellets after getting frustrated with charcoal.

The Best BBQ Pellets
The above are some of the downsides to using other forms of grilling instead of pellets. That said, there are downsides to grilling with pellets – if you’re using substandard pellets. Indeed, that’s why, here at Knotty Wood, we make sure that our almond wood is spruced only from our orchard. That way, we can guarantee that our pellets are 100% pure and natural. You’ll never find any additives in them, any fillers, substitutes, or anything less than top-quality almond wood.
