Title: Puck Chart For New Bradley Members
Post by: NePaSmoKer on August 09, 2010, 02:30:16 PM
Here is a Bradley Bisquette (wood pucks) Chart for the new Bradley owners. This is also good for the pellet pooper guys-N-gals  ;D
   


Hickory    
Pungent, smoky, bacon-like flavor.    
Good with Pork, chicken, beef, wild game, cheeses.

Pecan    
Rich and more subtle than hickory, but similar in taste. Burns cool, so ideal for very low heat smoking.    
Pork, chicken, lamb, fish, cheeses.

Mesquite    
Sweeter, more delicate flavor than hickory. Tends to burn hot, so use carefully.    
Most meats, especially beef. Most vegetables.

Alder    
Delicate flavor that enhances lighter meats.    
Salmon, swordfish, sturgeon, other fish. Also good with chicken and pork.

Oak    
Forthright but pleasant flavor. Blends well with a variety of textures and flavors.    
Beef (particularly brisket), poultry, pork.

Maple    
Mildly smoky, somewhat sweet flavor. Try mixing maple with corncobs for ham or bacon.    
Poultry, vegetables, ham.

Cherry    
Slightly sweet, fruity smoke flavor.    
Poultry, game birds, pork.

Apple    
Slightly sweet but denser, fruity smoke flavor.    
Beef, poultry, game birds, pork particularly

Special Blend
Mildly sweet with a hint of hickory
Good with pork, fowl and sausage.


Extra for the poopers  ;D

Peach or Pear Pellets. Slightly sweet, woodsy flavor.    
Poultry, game birds, pork.

Grape Pellets. Aromatic, similar to fruit woods.    
Turkey, chicken, beef.

Wine Barrel Pellets. Wine and oak flavors. A flavorful novelty that smells wonderful.    
Beef, turkey, chicken, cheeses.

Really good info!  Being somewhat of a pellet pooper as you call them, I use pellets in my Big easy and SRG's.

Thought about using the Bradley pucks just to see how they would burn in one of my units, has anyone ever tried this?

I have used pellets and wood chunks in my Bradleys.

I guess I'll get some pucks and try them, if they don't work I'll give the rest to TestRocket for his Bradley.

I reaaly hope they do I want to use the Jim Beam ones

Tommy, STC put some Bradley pucks in his Traeger and I don't think they lasted too long....

But if any should work, it would be the Jim Beam, Those are compressed very tight.

I have 4 boxes and if you want a 12 pack to play with, pm me your addy and I will send it to ya.

I put a stack right on my heat shield (above the pellet firebox) - and they smoked like crazy for about 60 minutes, tops.

I (and I'm sure others) would be interested to know how they perform in a BE/SRG.  Go for it!

Great thanks!   Kimmie is having a hard time letting the youngest go off to school, so maybe I'll use them to cook/smoke something real good for her!

Thanks again CRG,  I love this forum!

CRG as you can see they made it to the house  :D    I can't thank you enough for sending them!
I'll try them in the next day or so, been very busy getting the youngest one off to college and all.

Kimmie is upset about him going but 10.5 gave me a recipe for apple pie a la mode (drink)  ;) that knocked the edge off real fast!  ;D   

Again thanks so much for doing this, if you need something from north Alabama just let me know,  I love this site!!!     OH, looking at BS now but will be a little while before I can aford one.

Thanks!

Just got the email that Ricky recieved the check and all is a go. TR and I will meet real soon again for 1 more round of testing I hope and to get the game plan ready.

I'll cook something for Kimmie in the next day or so to get Jacob off her mind (the one that went off to college) I bet a nice rack of ribs will do the trick!   ;D  I'll have a test result on the bisquettes real soon
