100% Pacific Northwest Alder BBQ Pellets add a neutral, balance wood flavor to fish and meats. For over a century, Native Americans have used alder when cooking or smoking salmon and it continues to be the most common wood used for smoking salmon throughout the Pacific Northwest, Canada and Great Lakes region. Try these BBQ pellets especially when smoking salmon, trout, sturgeon, walleye, catfish and other types of fish. Because of the neutral characteristics of alder, it is works wonderfully when blended with other wood species too, especially fruit wood. When using alder with meats such as steak, ribs and briskets, try mixing alder BBQ pellets with our fruit wood pellets like apple and cherry for a delectable taste you're sure to love.
