Who sells Jack Daniels smoker chips

[C_Dave45]

I bought a bag of Jack Daniels wood smoking chips from Bass Pro last time I did some smoking. I'm doing some more ribs tomorrow...does anyone know of somewhere in town that sells them? I checked Co-Op...

Canadian tire has the pellets. Wholesale sports should have em. Or any bbq place

try calling the bbq place on edmonton trail near Pro-Am. Never seen them there but I remember they used to have a big selection of accessories.

Damnit. Tried everywhere this morning.
Canadian tire: nope
Wholesale sports: nope
BBQ's Galore; only had the pellets...they've never even heard of the chips.

Bass Pro Shops has them.

Bit of a drive, but they are there if you still cant find them.

Bon Ton Meat Market sells them for sure. It's across 16th ave from Foothills Hospital

Just saw these advertised in the Walmart flyer of all places...

Wal-Mart only had the pellets I believe. I made a trip out to Bass Pros last week and stocked up

yeah, bass pro is the only place I know of dave that has the actual JD chips. but for $5 a bag, pick up 10 bags and you are good for quite awhile, also if you are using a charcoal BBQ, the cowboy charcoal they have is not bad for $12 a 20lb bag.

Dave, we should really get together for a BBQ and share recipes and shit. I got my new BBQ and damn, am I getting some tasty food off of it.

I tried the pellets last night and was sorely disappointed. I'm new to this. What's the wood vs pellet argument?

[spikerS]

pellets are basically just compressed sawdust and burn horribly in a BBQ and usually too fast.

wood chips, burn slower and are able to give off a lot more smoke.

Pellets have their place, but usually only in electric smokers, same with pucks.

[The_Rural_Juror]

Thanks! Which new bbq did you get?

[teknical]

I'm no expert but I believe the pellets need to be added frequently as they burn up too quick. They also can't be pre-soaked otherwise they get soggy.

EDIT: Spikers beat me to it.

I used the water bowl that came with my smoker to soak the JD chips. I then strained and put them directly on the charcoal. The water went a brownish after soaking for about an hour, so it was left in the water dish and put back in the smoker.

Paging r3ccos to come and say how bad it is lol.

I picked up a Char-griller Smoking Pro for $241 and change from Barbecues Galore. Pretty decent unit for the price, and I have been smoking some awesome meats on it.

R3ccos will recommend the Webber Smokey Mountain cooker. Nice bullet smoker, but crazy prices.

I picked up the 18" Smokey Mountain about a week ago from Barbecue's Galore. Unfortunately I've only had a chance to use it once

[The_Rural_Juror]

Do you re-use the wood chips?
