Dang that sucks, I've been using B&B briquettes for over 3 years now with no issues.

Those look great 👍 Love cooking pork steaks on my WSM with direct heat.

I want to know how it compares to the Cowboy briquettes that Walmart carries, I believe it's also 40lbs for $18.

Looks like it's Royal Oak since it's a ridge briquette. I wonder if it's similar to RO Chef Select since the bag states it's All Natural.

Head Country Apple Habanero and Killer Hogs Vinegar Sauce. SBR is okay, just have to thin it out a bit.

What temp do you get after opening all your vents?

For me the B&B briquettes at Walmart for $10 is a good deal because they seem to last twice as long as Kingsford blue. Best part is the B&B doesn't smoke up your entire backyard when lighting a chimney!

This year I stocked up on B&B orange bag briquettes for $10 each at Walmart and some Cowboy briquettes as well. I recently picked up a few bags of mesquite lump from a local Mexican market, they had 15lb bags for $5.99.

Wish I could get my hands on 100% Post Oak pellets, hopefully this blend is decent!

That's why B&B Briquettes are my favorite. They burn clean and burn very long! Cowboy is my 2nd favorite briquette.

I like it better than kingsford now, good value for sure.

The worst Royal Oak briquettes are those red, white, and blue bags. They smoke up the entire backyard, burn quickly, and leave a ton of ash. I also tried the "All Natural" from Walmart, those were a bit better. After trying B&B orange bag, it's hard to go back to RO or Kingsford. The B&B burns...

The SnS is fine, starting off with a small fire helps, light like 8-10 briquettes. Once the kettle hits 200F, close bottom vent down to 1/4 and the top vent down to 1/4. As far as your Traeger not putting out smoke, try using Bear Mountain pellets, their Bold BBQ blend works well for me...

I haven't been happy with Royal Oak briquettes, I'm with Louie, B&B orange bag is the way to go as far as briquettes go. Walmart sells them now on their website, but they go in and out of stock a lot.

$3.99 in SoCal, it was $3.49 last week...
