Just bought 5 of these yesterday to add to add to my stash, I got them for 5 dollars a bag with a coupon so I said what the heck I'll try them. Popped in the first bag and they are a blended pellet I think 70/30 softwood to hardwood. They have a nice pine smell to them this year and they are burning pretty hot. Ash is ok to its the nice grayish light ash. Pleasantly surprised. Anyone else burning these.
