Bradley Bisquettes

Just wondering if anyone has tried the Bradley Bisquettes or something similar. New to the BGE and would hate to use something in it that might change the taste of food that might come out of it. Been told that the Bradley Bisquettes or similar bisquettes do not leave the creosote taste that can be tasted in some foods that have been smoked with water soaked wood.

  • I havent tried those in the egg yet even though i have a package sitting here, but i think their main reason for having no creosote was to push the bisquette into the water pan before its totally burned off.

    Anyway, if you know how to build a fire and to manage it you dont have to be afraid of creosote at all - especially in an egg.

    Forget about the soaking at all, imho that produces a lot of dirty smoke.


    Let the egg come to temperature with the dry wood chunks ( those are better than chips) inside and youll get a very clean smoke. Just because you dont see it it doesnt mean youll get no smoke flavour.
    The best smoke is the blue one wich is barely visible.
