Title: Cabela's Smoking Bisquettes
Post by: Smokechop on October 24, 2010, 10:15:30 AM
Can I use the Cabela's bisquettes in the Original Bradley Smoker? I sure hope so since the store clerk told me they are the same (both made by Bradley) and the only difference was the price. I bought a 120 pack of the Pepper Rosemary and Thyme. I'm very new to smoking and this is my first unit ever. I bought it yesterday on sale and used two store gift cards. Sale price $239.99 minus $70.00 for a total purchase of $169.99 which I felt was worth the drive to the Hamburg PA store approximately 2.5 hours away. I am about to season the unit and I wanted to know if the clerk told me the truth and I'm not going to hurt the smoker using these bisquettes. If anyone knows of a good cook book on smoking meats that gives time and temps to go by I would like to know. How is Bradley's cook book? I'm looking foreward to my first deer hind quarter rost in the smoker. Hope you all can help with these questions.

Those are NEW and was brought up in another thread and they will work.

That is a great price on the smoker also.

Congrats and welcome to the Forum.

The Bradley cook book is not correct sometimes when it says to close the vent.

Made by Bradley for Cabelas. Where do you live? I'm about three hours away from Cabelas in Hamburg.

I'm intrigued by the bisquettes you are talking about.  How much did they cost.  I have not heard of those flavors, so interested in what else they offer.

I believe they're not on the website yet because they are new
I used them for a 6lb. pork loin that I cut in half last week and they tasted wonderful
One half I seasoned with just salt and pepper, the other with Roasted Garlic & Beer season.

They are only $5 cheaper in the store and only the one flavor. Check out ManVenture Outpost for the best price I have found as stated by another poster.                  Mark

Well I didn't see the cabela's brand bisquettes on the manventureoutpost.com website; however, I did find the bradley bisquettes and they are on sale for the cheapest I have ever seen them.  A pack of 120 for $24.69!  I'm going to have to hook myself up with some of them for that price!

Those flavors seem like they would work with all meats.

I used them for my first smoke in my new OBS.  I did a cold smoke on some cheese.  I did 2 hours on some colby jack, sharp cheddar, and mozzarella. After I vacuum sealed it for a few days I tried a slice of the mozzarella and it was a little strong.  the smoke smelled SO good I thought it would really be  a nice smooth taste, but it is a little rough. I still think it will be good on meat though.

I spoke to Bradley USA about these Bisquettes. They are made with Oak so it is a mild enough wood that they should work well with beef and just about any other meat.

That's good to know. Yesterday I picked up a box at Cabela's.
