When you’re new to the world of pellet grilling, or grilling in general for that matter, you learn new tips & tricks all the time. When I first got into smoking on a pellet grill, I saw video after video on people using smoke tubes to “enhance” the meat with more smoke. I went out, bought one, but didn’t know how to use the thing; my first time using one, I used a cheap lighter and it took forever just to get one pellet smoking.
Don’t be like me! Follow these quick and easy steps to get your tube up and smoking.
- Grab an empty smoke tube
- Fill it almost full with your favorite pellets
- Lay it sideways on the side of your grill; close to where your meat will be
- Get your small propane torch roaring and direct the flame to the pellets for one minute
- Let the fire blaze in the tube for about five minutes then blow out the flame
- This will create a few hours of smoke rolling within your grill
TIP: If your propane torch is stored at room temperature, it’ll perform best.
