I am New to the pellet smokers. I didnt get a good smoke ring with the weber master blend. Is the a different pellet brand that smokes better?

I was going to say the same thing but he mentioned he hopes the smoke flavor gets better as well.
Put your meat on cold if your looking for a massive smoke ring, like Lynn has showed though it doesn’t add any flavor.

Thanks I will try the cold meat trick and see how it turns out.

Additionally, spraying or mopping the brisket every hour until the bark has formed and this will help create a nice smoke ring. Here is a good video on creating your badge of honor smoke ring -

Sean, I don't think the pellet type matters. I've gotten consistent smoke rings with my pellet grill using a variety of pellets (Traeger, Bear Mountain, Cookin' Pellets, etc.) As Bruno and LK said above, cold meat (doesn't have to be icy!) is probably the biggest factor. I never mop/slop/mist, and I have a smoke ring every time.

Having said all that, it wouldn't bother me if I didn't have a smoke ring. It doesn't taste any different, it's just a visual thing.

Smoke on!

The question that I have is what temperature are you talking about? At 200-250, you should get plenty of smoke. At 350, you are not going to get a lot of smoke. Smoke is relative to burning temp.
