Featured product: Applewood smoker pellets and wood chips from Furtado Farms

Grilling season should be taken advantage of no matter what you’re working with—a brand new outdoor kitchen with all the latest features, that Big Green Egg you treated yourself to one year, a classic charcoal grill, or an antiquated barbeque that’s seen better days but still gets the job done. What’s most important is what’s on your grill—not the equipment itself—and if you’re working with high quality ingredients like Ontario beef, poultry and pork from Olliffe, you’ve got everything you need to create an incredible meal in your backyard.

But okay, we’ll admit it—an excellent grill or smoker helps, especially when you want to add flavour and smokiness to your favourite dishes. Knowing this, Olliffe is pleased to carry applewood smoker pellets and wood chips from Furtado Farms. Please visit us in store or contact us to learn more about these exceptional products.

Their cookwood is naturally cured and packaged by hand to ensure that optimal quality goes into each and every bag. They don't use artificial flavours or oils to scent or alter their products—whether it's peach, hickory, apple or mesquite, Furtado Farms uses nothing but 100% natural wood. This is why the quality of their products is so amazing!
