You can get an $85 charcoal rotisserie from Bunnings. There's a separate thread about my quest for "charcoal chicken".

Keeping in mind I first purchased it a long time ago I would say yes. I'm pretty sure it was at least 300C initially. I think...
You will need to get an adapter to connect to a gas cylinder as they normally use these pissy little bottles that cost $10 each. I think I got the adapter from BCF.

The interesting point is that if there were chemicals they wouldn't be able to sell them as heating pellets either. Not sure if you guys have a slow combustion fireplace, but if you do you'll know you only ever put a piece of treated pine in it *once*.
Personally like with meat I let my nose be the guide. I had a good sniff and they were fine to me. I probably won't purchase again as I've seen "food grade" pellets for $25/15kg.

I tried everything I could and no diff. I pulled it apart but wasn't able to get to the jets without serious work. It still works, just not to a heat level that I feel it used to get to. I'm sure it used to be around 300+.

BBQ Galore still do:

$19 / bag for 15kg. I use them all the time in the Pit Boss, sometimes mixed with others for flavour, although I'd be hard pressed to pick the difference in flavour to be honest. I have no issues at all with them.
So grabbed a couple of bags of these at BBQG on the weekend. Now $20/bag. When I got home I noticed it now says on the bag not for use in pellet cookers. Did some googling and plenty of people are using them in their grill so as I had run out of pellets gave them a whirl with the pizza attachment. Didn't notice anything untoward in terms of smoke smell etc.

Wagyu rump (1/2 800g starting piece), 225f in the GMG pellet grill until 120f internal. Then seared on the weber on lump. Garlic mushrooms means no social contact tomorrow 😂
Superb meal.

Steak sandwich. Prob best I've ever had.
Fillet steak cooked whole on the DB - low heat to get a bit more smoke, caramalised onions on top
-
I think so. It's here :
1/4 Cup Salt
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1/4 Cup Smoked Paprika
1 tbsp Garlic Powder
1 tbsp Onion Powder
1 tbsp Black Pepper
1 tbsp Turmeric
1 tsp Cinnamon
US measures (so tbsp is 3 teaspoons)
I only had sweet paprika but still tasted great
-
What I was planning was to keep just using the standard pellets in the DB, and the apple wood pellets in the smoking tube. What I was wondering (and probably didn't explain very clearly) is will the apple wood pellets be okay in the smoking tube or should I go to the extra trouble of using apple wood chips.
-
Yeah agree. Thought about it after (when in a more sober condition) and thought it was a dumb idea. I'm thinking I'll just use the smoke tube.
If I'm looking for Apple smoke, is it worth going to the trouble (and I think extra cost) of using chips in the smoke tube or are 100% apple wood pellets okay? They'd certainly be easier and I suspect cheaper than the wood chips.
-
In hindsight I should have done half maple the other half plain. But very happy with the taste.
-
Sounds like I should raise this as a specific post for GMG people. Or I'll just give this a go and see what happens
I have a smoker tube so maybe that's the easier answer with chips.
-
I was starting to reach this conclusion myself.
If I was to put a piece of chunk wood in my Daniel Boone is there where it would go?
-
Home cured and Smoked maple bacon.
-
Did some checking and the only brand I could find that is 100% fruit wood is asmoke. And it's about $50 for a 9kg bag. Ouch.
-
I didn't realise this. I assumed if it said apple they would be all apple.

That's about half the price of these that I've been using:
https://firebrandbbq.com.au/pr…rebrand-bbq-pellets-10kg/
$2.70/kg vs $1.33 for the BBQG ones.
What ratio of these to fruitwood have you been doing?
-
So I'm guessing these pellets aren't for a pellet grill???
-
As an aside, where are you guys getting your cheap beef cheeks? I think I paid $16+/kg so in my case a lot cheaper to buy brisket from Costco.

I watched the video about the GMG pizza add on in that review link. Got me convinced!
