That is the first mention I've ever seen of PB being involved with Kirkland. Honestly since PB has always been much more expensive in the stores selling the brand I've skipped it in favor of Bear Mountain at Sam's Club. To date I've used Bear Mountain (Lumberjack) 50/50 Oak/Hickory, and their regular Smokehouse blend which is (like Kirkland) Oak, Hickory, Maple and Cherry. And the aforementioned Kirkland. Truth be told.........I cannot tell any difference in smoke aroma, taste on the food, levels, or any other measure anyone cares use. In either of my 2 pellet grills. They're all equally pleasant smelling, (tasting on the food), levels in the food and coming out the backs of the pits. So for me all of them are quite generic in all aspects.
Now at some point I may give Smokin' Pecan pellets a try but I cannot get over their over $1.00 lb cost factor. Too rich for my blood. Occasionally I see other so called top brands with single varietal woods i.e. Cherry, Apple, Pecan, what have you. I may give those a try some time.
But, honestly unless it's really awful woods seems most hardwoods "smoke is smoke"
