Local product feature: Applewood smoker pellets and wood chips from Furtado Farms
BBQ season is amazing no matter what your setup looks like—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 old-as-heck barbeque that’s seen better days but still gets the job done. If you’re working with high quality ingredients like our Ontario beef, poultry and pork products, you can create an incredible meal in your backyard. And now, we’ve got some awesome new products to help make it happen!
VG Meats is pleased to carry applewood smoker pellets and wood chips from Furtado Farms. Here's what you need to know—please visit us in store or contact us to learn more about these awesome products!
Their story
Furtado Farms was established in 2012 and is based in Wellesley and Elmira, Ontario. All Furtado Farms Cookwood is locally sourced, hand-selected and processed in house. 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!
You can learn more about them at FurtadoFarms.ca, follow them on Instagram or visit VG Meats to grab some of their best products.
