Tell us why there are no people other than you (on this site or any BBQ site, let alone the BBQ competitions) that are promoting your amazing wood stove pellets? Don't you find it kind of odd that 99% of Canawiks advertising is all about providing a heating pellet and then basically in the fine print at the bottom of the page they mention you can use it in a BBQ. I'm sure you can but when the company itself says their product hasn't been tested for human consumption and then you basically tell me and everyone else we are idiots... I'm sure if they were legit, there would be many BBQ enthusiasts raving about the money savings and how great these pellets are.
But I'm never going to eat your cooking so knock yourself out, enjoy your cooking on your cheap heating pellets.

Sorry to the original poster, this has been a major hijack to your original question and I am done about the pellet saga.

If it means anything, a majority of the pellet smokers that were at the PorkaPallooza BBQ competition this wkd in Edm were Yoders. The Grand Champion team used drum smokers with charcoal/wood.
There were a few other pellet grills that included Traegar, LG, GMG, Rec Tec and camp chef from what I know, likely others too. Many other charcoal pits were used as well including webers, Oklahoma Joes, Green Eggs, Kamados etc.
But I can guarantee you that there was not 1 bag of Canawik pellets used in this competition...
There is a whole batch of people using Canawick and Elite Hardwood pellets in pellet BBQ's. I am part of multiple Facebook groups and this topic has been discussed multiple times over on those pages. Funny that you bring up competitions; one guy in Tennessee just won best ribs this past weekend using Canawick pellets; he did it to prove a point to individuals such as yourself.

You guys do what you want and I will do what I want.
