it makes food that’s a bit healthier than charcoal, but taste wise I still like charcoal better (I just don’t use it all that often because of all the carcinogens it adds).
That’s because of USians’ lousy technique. Find out how asado is cooked in Argentina. Slow burn, but much healthier. And you can have meat that is cooked and juicy at the same time.
My pellet smoker never has exposed flame , although I might turn it up at times to sear the outside.
The trick is that when you don’t have cider or apple juice to add moisture while forming a crust, apricot preserves work really well …… somehow I always have that.
But if you want that fall off the bone tenderness from a tough cut of meat, you need to cook low and slow.

Amateurs! 3 hours for ribs? Try 5 hours on my pellet grill/smoker
Is the meat under open flame at ANY time?
