I Tried RELOADING Wood Splits in My Pellet Smoker…Did It Work?! 🔥 LSG Experiment PART 2

Today is PART 2 of my Lone Star Grillz wood-split burning series. In Part 1 we PROVED you can burn wood splits inside a LSG pellet smoker using the charcoal basket under the standard heat deflector… But today? Oh boy… We’re trying something spicier: 👉 Using the La Plancha as a heat deflector 👉 Cooking on the TOP rack only 👉 Reloading wood splits mid-cook 👉 Seeing if this trick can replicate an El Fuego Trio-style burn Spoiler: The results were NOT what I hoped… but we learned A LOT for Part 3! And the pork tenderloins? AMAZING 🤤🔥 If you’re an LSG 42” or 36” pellet grill owner wondering if you can boost smoke or run wood splits… this experiment series is 100% for YOU. Stick around for the full test, the science, the tasty pork, the honesty, and the classic Lost Canuck chaos. And hey — if we're lost, we're lost together. 👇 WATCH PART 1 Here:    • I Burned WOOD SPLITS in My Pellet Smoker! ...   🔥 PART 3 coming SOON: The Snake Method wood-split burn test! 👇 SUBSCRIBE & Join the Lost Crew: @LostCanuckBBQ 👇 Check Out My Lost Canuck Store (affiliate — helps support the channel!): ============================================= ***LOST CANUCK ON-LINE STORE*** (Check out all my AMAZON FAVES below – Affiliate links): https://www.amazon.com/shop/lostcanuc... ============================================== ***THERMOWORKS Items*** ThermoWorks RFX Wireless Starter Kit: https://thermoworks.sjv.io/BnQYXB ThermoWorks Themapen One (best in the business): https://thermoworks.sjv.io/mOBkg7 ============================================= *** Chef’s Temp S1 Grill Gauge – Drum Smoker Control *** ProTemp S1 Smart Grill Gauge (On My OKJ Drum): https://chefstemp.rfrl.co/1mexr Use Code TD20 for 20% Off Your Entire Order ============================================= *** PK GRILLS Charcoal Grills – Awesome Grill/Smoker *** PK Go Portable Charcoal Grill (Tom Horsman Loves It!): https://alnk.to/gVNLEWc PK 360 Large Charcoal Grill – The One I Have (360 sq. inches): https://alnk.to/eDTuNDi ============================================= ***Pi-One Portable Stainless Steel Pellet Grill – Dual Battery Powered*** Pi-One Pellet Grill (Like Mine): https://piliving.com/?ref=LOSTCANUCK10 Use Code LOSTCANUCK10 for 10% Off Your Entire Order ============================================= ***Solo Stove Fire Pits – Family Outdoor Fun*** Yukon 2.0 Back Yard Bundle: https://alnk.to/gzYfHfB Yukon Heat Deflector – Stay Warm: https://alnk.to/gzYfHgT ============================================= ***Cotton Gin Drum Smokers (with door) & Tribal Fire Mini Grills*** The “Harvester” Drum: https://rstr.co/livefireandsmoke/8844 Use Code LOSTCANUCK10 for 10% Off Your Order ============================================= ***The Meat Stick V Wireless Temp Probe*** NEW High Temp 6-Sensor Probe: https://themeatstick.rfrl.co/1m1vz ============================================= ***Big Horn Outdoors – 1500F Grill*** My Reverse Searing Grill (Cheap and Works Well): https://tidd.ly/46w8hV1 Special $10 Off Order Code: BIGHORN01 ============================================= 💡 Did You Find This Video Helpful? 💡 ============================================= 1) *HIT* that “HYPE” or “Like” button – it helps my channel GROW! 2) *SEND* a “SUPER THANKS” by hitting the “Thanks” button! 💰 3) *WATCH* more BBQ cooks & gear tests 📺▶️ 👇    • Pellet Smoked Meats   ============================================= 00:00 🔥 Cold Open – Wood Split Experiment PART 2 00:24 Intro – LSG 42 Experiment Series Continues 01:33 Lost Canuck BBQ Theme 02:00 Cheap Pork Tenderloin Prep (Mustard Binder + Local Rubs 05:11 Dry Brine Overnight – Flavor Boost 05:45 LSG Setup – Pellets, Plancha & Top Rack Cooking 07:05 Loading Wood Splits Under La Plancha 07:38 Probe Setup – RFX + MeatStick 5 08:09 First Smoke Phase @ 225°F (Will the Splits Ignite?) 09:29 45-Minute Check – Smoke Boost or Just Pellets? 09:45 Something’s Wrong… 10:17 Pork Tenderloins DONE – Temp Checks @ 145°F 11:10 Inside Look – Why the Splits NEVER Ignited 12:51 Theory Time – Heat Concentration & Firebox Distance 13:33 Future Fixes – Snake Method, Char Logs & LSG Ideas 14:22 Upstairs – Pork Taste Test + Smoke Ring Reveal 17:16 Try and Ignite Again! 18:40 Final Thoughts – Why Part 2 FAILED (And Why It’s Good!) 19:48 What’s Coming in PART 3 21:52 Instagram + Store + Channel Info 23:24 Final Message – Be Kind ❤️ Lost Canuck Out #LoneStarGrillz #PelletSmoker #BBQExperiment #WoodSplits #LostCanuckBBQ #bbq
