KNOTTY WOOD BBQ

100% ALMOND AND PLUM WOOD PELLETS

THE KNOTTY WOOD BBQ STORY

In 2019, we decided to bring a stick burner quality pellet to the pellet grilling world, so we built a state-of-the-art custom mill here in Woodland, CA. Rooted in our “From Field to BBQ” philosophy, we personally oversee every single step of the process – working with growers to source the wood, harvesting, and grinding in the orchard, transporting, and crafting the pellets in our custom mill on the family farm. Even packaging and distribution is under our care.

In an industry that is largely unregulated (remnants from furniture, cabinets, and flooring are supplied as “wood” to many pellet factories), we’re committed to our unprecedented chain of custody. That way, we can always guarantee that Knotty Wood Barbecue Company pellets are of the highest possible quality. Personally crafted with your family and health in mind. 100% Pure Almond and Plum Wood. No Fillers. No Additives. Ever.

Video - Message from the Founder

Great video from my friend and founder of Knotty Wood BBQ, Spencer Defty. He can bbq and cook too! I love Knotty Wood BBQ Almond and Plum pellets for their burn efficiency, great smoke flavor, and a high quality product that does not contain furniture wood, fillers, and other wood products. You get 100% wood, and nothing but the wood!

THE KNOTTY WOOD BBQ DIFFERENCE

Knotty Wood Barbecue is a company that specializes in bringing high-quality BBQ pellets & rub to your barbecue. We believe in barbequing as close to the original source, which means we’ve worked hard to provide premium pellets that bridge the gap of the highly sought after “stick burner” quality with the ease of use and convenience of pellets.

Quick Facts:

  • Full Chain of Custody – From Field to BBQ Ensures quality of our product
  • Only 100% natural pellet with no fillers, no additives, no binders
  • We use the bark, that’s where the heat and the flavor is, hence why we are “stick burner quality
  • Due to their high density, our Almond & Plum Wood pellets burn both hotter and longer than other pellets, and provide a more efficient energy source with a 20% longer burn time on average
  • We test for over 500 chemicals
  • Philanthropic Program for Veteran Community through the Pellets That Pay It Forward Program
  • Family Owned & Operated since 2019 in Woodland, CA
