Rated 4 out of 5 by from Smelled good My husband and I used it at one of our grillouts on a charcoal grill. Probably would have done better in a smoker. Still smelled great but didnt get much flavor in the meat. Again, probably because it wasn't used in a smoker.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Awesome flavor I used these the other day and must say i was pleased. I had a little trouble getting it going, but once it started burning properly it gave my food a really awesome flavor. Overall they were great for my meal. The flavor was sweet, and made the food taste amazing.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not what I expected I got these pellets trying something new and I have to admit that o did not care for them. I followed the instructions on the bag and I have to say I did not taste the cherry flavor at all. I also think that the pellets burned way too fast.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Nice Product I was very pleased with my recent purchase of the Kingsford Hardwood Pellets - in the Cherrywood varity. These are an excellent and extremely conveint way to add the flavor of Cherrywood to your grilling experience. We used the Cherrywood product on a large roast and it turned out great! I highly recommend this product for anyone who is interested in using hardwood pellets in their smoking and grilling with either a charcoal, gas or pellet grill.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great aroma and delicious flavor! We used these Cherrywood pellets on our Green Egg to smoke pork, and it turned out great! The pellets burned slower than we thought they might and produced a great aroma that filled our home and neighborhood. Pleased with this product and look forward to trying the other woods.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it I got this just a few days ago and we finally got some good weather for grilling so that we could put it to good use. I love how easy to use it is. I love the smokey quality that the pellets provide. It is a treat to both the nose and your mouth when its done cooking. Our puppers would hardly stay out of the way, they were convinced we were cooking for them lol. The burgers and sausages had such a nice cherry,smoked flavor it really added to the already fantastic experience that we know grilling to be.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product! These cherywood pellets work wonderfully. I used them on a rack of ribs, letting them smoke for about four hours. Delicious! I will definitely try the other pellets available. This imparted a mild and clean smoked flavor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great BBQ! These wood pellets were great for our BBQ for Memorial Day Weekend! They had a long burn time, and lasted all night while we cooked up burgers and hot dogs. It also gave off a great, smokey, BBQ smell & flavor! Much more fun and tasteful than using regular coal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use Very easy to use, put it in the grill and light!!! Smells great with a light cherry scent. Didn't change the flavor of the meat but gave it more of a smoked taste. Will definitely be getting again. Highly recommend!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Beautiful scent and flavor I tried these Kingsford Cherrywood pellets in my combo smoking charcoal grill. These pellets worked beautifully. The aroma is very appetite provoking. The finished flavor is almost as good. I say almost because the taste isn't as noticeable as the aromatic scent. We made shrimp skewers, rib eye skewers and veggies. These don't get as air smokey as I anticipated; which is a good thing. Overall, these pellets will become a regular in my outdoor cooking habits.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great flavor pellets I received these pellets about a week ago and I have already used them to make some great steaks on my grill. If you don't have a pellet grill, you can simply make a smoker by using aluminum foil and throw in a handful of pellets, close it up, then poke a few holes in the top. It is that easy! I have the Cherrywood flavor now, and I will be purchasing some more flavors in the future to try out. My steaks turned out absolutely delicious. I can't wait to try out some more flavors. Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Taste! As someone who uses only charcoal to grill, I was looking for something to amp up the flavor. These Kingsford Hardwood Pellets were exactly what my grilling needed! Mixing it with charcoal is easy and it really adds to the flavor of grilled fish and vegetables!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product I bought this to try a new flavor. I have tried the maple and the family loved it. My husband is the griller in the house hold. He has wanted to try a different product and flavor. We bought this in cherry and it was sooo good. We made chicken and had it in salads so yum!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Yummy Pork I could tell these were high quality from looking in the bag (they make it clear so you see exactly what you're getting.) To grill with, they smelled wonderful. The flavor really went through the thick pork chops we cooked. They tasted sweet and smoky but not overwhelmingly so. We added some BBQ sauce and they were divine.
