    The fruit wood that gives smallgoods their rose-pink colour and chicken its sweet finish. Lumber Jack 100% Cherry, now stocked at BBQ Republic.

    Cherry sits at the gentler end of the smoke spectrum. It is mild, slightly sweet, and fruity, with none of the sharp bite you get from hickory or mesquite. That makes it the go-to pellet for poultry, pork, ham, fish and especially smallgoods, where the smoke needs to support the meat rather than dominate it. You also get that signature rose-pink hue that screams "this came off a real smoker", not an oven.

    100% Cherry, No Filler

    No oak base, no alder filler, no mystery wood. Just pure Cherry, so the smoke flavour you smell is the smoke flavour you get.

    Whole-Tree Process

    Lumber Jack processes whole trees into green chips rather than using residual sawdust.

    Mild and Fruity Smoke

    A gentle, sweet smoke profile that won't overpower delicate proteins. Beautiful on poultry, pork and fish. Stunning on smallgoods.

    Fits Any Pellet Grill

    Works in all major pellet grills including Yoder Smokers, Green Mountain Grills, Traeger, Pit Boss and Camp Chef. Drop in and cook.

    Why We Stock Lumber Jack

    Whole trees, not residual sawdust.

    Lumber Jack says many pellet makers use leftover sawdust from furniture or hammer-handle manufacturing, and that leftover sawdust does not carry the same taste.

    Lumber Jack's plant was designed to process whole trees into green chips, using timber from the northern Wisconsin forests. The result is a pellet that smells like the wood it came from and smokes like it too. You can taste the difference on the first cook.

    That is why we carry it at our Wetherill Park showroom.

    Frequently asked questions

    What does Cherry smoke taste like?
    Mild, fruity and slightly sweet. Far gentler than hickory or mesquite, with a soft, almost rounded smoke profile that complements the meat rather than overpowering it. It also throws a beautiful rose-pink colour to whatever you cook on it, which is why it is the pellet of choice for smallgoods and hams.
    What is the whole-tree process and why does it matter?
    Lumber Jack says many pellet makers use leftover sawdust from furniture or hammer-handle manufacturing, which does not carry the same taste. Lumber Jack's plant was designed to process whole trees into green chips, so you get the full cherry flavour in the pellet.
    Will these pellets work in my pellet grill?
    Yes. Lumber Jack pellets are standard 6mm BBQ pellets and work in all major pellet grills including Yoder Smokers, Green Mountain Grills, Traeger, Pit Boss, Camp Chef and others. If you can run pellets, you can run Lumber Jack.
    Can I blend Cherry with other woods?
    Absolutely. Cherry blends beautifully with stronger woods. Mix it with Hickory for ribs and pork shoulder to get the bark and sweetness together, or with Oak for a balanced beef cook. Many pitmasters keep two flavours loaded and pour them in together depending on the cook.
    How long does a 9kg bag last?
    A rough rule of thumb on a quality pellet grill is around 1kg of pellets per hour at smoking temperatures (around 110 to 120 degrees C), and more at hotter cooks. A 9kg bag will get you through several long cooks. If you smoke regularly, buying multiple bags at once makes sense.
    How should I store the pellets?
    Keep them dry. Pellets are compressed wood fibre and any moisture will swell them back into loose fibre, which jams the auger in your grill. Store the bag sealed in a cool, dry spot, or transfer to an airtight container. Avoid leaving them in the hopper between cooks if your grill is exposed to weather.
    Can I pick up from the showroom?
    Yes. Lumber Jack pellets are on display and available from our Wetherill Park showroom, Monday 10am to 5pm, Tuesday closed, Wednesday to Friday 10am to 5pm, Saturday 9am to 2pm, Sunday closed. Sydney metro delivery is also available, free on any order over $150. Call 0434 010 411 to arrange.
