WOOD-FIRED TASTE
ACHIEVING THE BEST TASTE AND FLAVOR FROM YOUR TRAEGER MEANS USING THE BEST HARDWOOD FUEL.
Flavouring your food with a rich, hardwood taste simply makes sense. Flavouring it with gas or charcoal? Not so much. Our all-natural hardwood pellets ensure you experience only the highest-quality pure hardwood flavour, and nothing else. Whether you are grilling, smoking, roasting, baking, braising, or barbecuing, your food will be infused with an amazing wood-fired taste.
Quality is the name of the game.
Traeger has had the same team leading our pellet mills for over 20 years, creating the perfect process for the highest-quality pellets on the market.
Our teams undergo a rigorous daily process of quality control, leaving no pellet behind, so you can be certain you are receiving the finest product, regardless of the flavour you choose.
To achieve a top-performing grill, as well as the ultimate flavour and taste, only the highest-quality hardwood is used in Traeger pellets. This also involves conducting regular burn tests at our mills to ensure consistency and the perfect smoke that you can depend on in every bag.
The "Gold Standard" in
Pellet Production
Milled in the USA
Traeger's pellet mills are all located right here in the U.S. Having our pellet mills located in the U.S. gives Traeger the ability to oversee the process from raw wood, all the way to bagging, and ensure it meets our strong guidelines for smoke perfection every step of the way. If our pellets don’t meet our standard requirements, they don’t make it into a bag—simple as that.
PELLET PRODUCTION PROCESS
Traeger pellet mills use a special pelletizing process to create the best pellets on the market. We start with clean, green hardwood, then dry it to the optimal moisture content for smoke creation, using a rotating drum and furnace. The hardwood material is then run through a hammer mill to uniformly grind the sawdust to an optimal size. Once uniform, they’re compressed and run through a rotating die and extruded out into the signature Traeger pellets you know and love. The last step is cooling them in a holding bin before getting bagged and ready to ship to your Traeger dealer, or right to your doorstep.
SUSTAINABILITY
Traeger is focused on sustainability. Where possible, we utilize the sawdust from clean, green hardwood that would otherwise go to waste to make our pellets.
