Pellet chat

[Murphy's Law]

Yeah, you contribute to the internet misinformation. Wittingly or unwittingly.

I don’t care what pellets anyone wants to use. There is only one way people get these stupid ideas about how Traeger pellets are made or what is in them. That’s internet troll BS. Either directly or indirectly through the propagation of the falsehoods. They are at least as good a product as anything out there. Again I don’t care if you choose to use them but should stop the misinformation.

Only one way people get stupid ideas…you mean like reading the Traeger patent and commenting on said patent on YouTube videos and bbq forums?

Man, I bet you’re fun at parties.

In reference to the dust from some pellets, I do this before EVERY smoke:
Remove the grill grate and hot pot cover, and vacuum down and back into the auger as far as possible. I'm guessing that this removes most of the dust backed up in the auger, and sucks out just a few pellets. Sure, it doesn't remove the dust collected in the hopper, but it likely pulls out some of it. If I'm not mistaken, Traeger recommends vacuuming b4 each use to remove the ashes and old pellets in the hot pot. I have noticed that, if I keep the hot pot clear of ashes I get more pellets burning properly. And it only takes me < 5 minutes to do.

Again you choose to ignore the point of my post.
I have made no reference in any of my posts to you about the validity of your information in this thread.
My post is about how you address people and express your views.

Yes. Exactly.

I don’t question people on their subjective choice per se. I will question if they choose to bring up erroneous reasons for their choices. That’s what I will attempt to correct. That said, people are obviously free to choose as they see fit. BTW, life is all about perspective and maybe you can bring yourself to sympathize with the fact that false information is equally offensive to me as my addressing it is to you. Other than that your comments are fair enough and duly noted. My hope is properly inform and then let people decide.

Yes, agreed, but to the point again @FireTechMike was making. Both we valid and can be substantiated with facts.
So, not really, it was not misinformation and was based on his observations and opinion.
Life is about perspective, perhaps you should sit back and read that before replying. You keep alluding to the notion that because someone posts about their reflection on things they are pandering to an online conspiracy. When in fact they are not. I didn't read any of that in what @FireTechMike posted.
Can you please quit adding your narrative about something that wasn't being discussed in my post to you. If you want to quote my post, then reply to what I said.
