I have only tried gourmet pellets and bought a few rubs
Chicken rub
Traeger rub (garlic/chili pepper) rec. Hickory pellets
Pork & poultry rub (apple/honey) rec. Apple pellets
Recently bough Hickory pellets maybe I'll grab a few other bags. To try different flavors of smoking..
Every meals a learning curve
You've cooked way more things than I have I've had it almost a week made 3 meals so far.

Yea I use the traeger Google method as well for time frames and ideas. I have learned chicken breast is not the beat for smoking the exterior was a bit tough. But also learned a few techniques. Drying the chicken off then applying the rub prior to cooking helps avoid such rubbery exterior .
Salmon comes out just right,smoking veggies works well...wrapped asparagus in foil with butter salt and garlic powder.
Pizza is along with ribs on the next to try list.
This weekend I'll be doing mussels,corn,flank steak, salmon, mushrooms,asparagus and whatever else I find in the fridge lol...
Btw those ribs look great
