One of the great joys of doing what I do, is being the benefactor of many grilling\/BBQ business asking me to try their products.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last year I met the powers that are Two Trees Products (Peter and Alyda) at the National Hardware show in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is a monstrously huge show with hundreds of vendors displaying their products to the retailers of the world. They generously gave me their time and introduced me to their &#8220;Best of the West&#8221; line of charcoal and chips, plus a few other goodies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not long after our initial meeting, a large package of charcoal, smoking chips and assorted goodies arrived at my door. Since that time, you have seen me use Best of the West products in several of my videos and articles since that time. Well, I went through all they sent last year and guess what? Arriving at my door was another generous supply of their products!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have been using Best of the West products for almost a year now and have been personally delighted with the quality of their products. The picture above is just a small sample of what they carry and I use. Their product has been a consistent performer for me, from the start, never-failing to produce a flavorful cook.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Their charcoal is top quality without a lot of residual waste left in the bag, you get your moneys worth. Best of the West smoking chips have performed perfectly every time, even with my attempts (read &#8211; errors) to hinder the process. I really like the plastic containers that the smoking chips come in and my wife quickly commandeer's them when they are empty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So, going forward on year two with a new supply of charcoal and smoking chips, I wanted\u00a0to say thank you to Peter and Alyda from Two Trees Products! You have a great product line and I hope everyone takes the time to visit them, try a few of their products and please, let me know what you think!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Best of the West Charcoal and Smoking Chips Over the past year, you may have noticed my joyful usage of certain products to enhance my grilling adventures.
