I'm giving the edge to Fireside Ultras over Stove Chow this year. The Chow was not bad at all, but the FSU definitely burn hotter and produce less ash in my set up, than the Chow.

Feeling the Heat
I used both years ago and preferred the Fireside Ultras. They are actually a softwood pellet made by Energex. They made very strange clinkers, almost like icicles hanging off the front of the burn pot, but the pellets were uniform size, burned hot and were a good value.
This year's Chows are just fine. Still need to go through 25 bags of MWP, which don't give off much heat when the temps dip below 20 degrees. MWP are just fine for should work for my Castilles. Will pick up a ton of FSU once the Chow stash get's cracked. Had good luck with them in the past.
