They are the fuel and the flavour source for pellet smokers and grills. The hardwood burns to produce both heat and smoke, so the pellet you choose affects the taste as well as the cook.

Game to Table
Traeger pellets for what you bring home
Traeger hardwood pellets are the fuel and the flavour for pellet smokers, the last step in a process that starts with a good shot and a clean recovery.
Traeger sits slightly outside the technical field range, and it is here for a reason: how you cook wild meat matters as much as how you carry it out, and our customers were already asking.
The last step in game to table
Why Advanced Outdoors
Why Advanced Outdoors stocks Traeger
Because the trip does not finish at the truck, and wild meat rewards being cooked properly.
01
Completes the process
Game bags and meat care get the animal home clean; this is what happens next.
02
Low and slow suits wild meat
Lean game benefits from long, controlled heat far more than from a hot grill.
03
Consistent fuel
Hardwood pellets burn predictably, which is what makes a long cook repeatable.
Best Use Cases
What people cook with them
Two obvious ones, and the reason it sits in this range at all.
Everything else off the smoker
The same pellets do the everyday cooking between trips.

What to Look For
Getting wild meat right
Most of the outcome is decided long before the smoker is lit.
-
It starts in the field
Cooling the meat fast and keeping it clean does more for the final result than anything you do at home. That is what game bags are for.
-
Lean meat needs gentler heat
Wild game has far less fat than farmed meat. Long, low cooking is more forgiving than high heat.
-
Match the wood to the meat
Stronger woods suit red game; lighter woods suit birds and pork.
