Picked this up on sale to replace a ZGrill that had some storm damage. Smoked a pack of thighs yesterday... Need more practice... Pellet choice matters!

Greetings, I added a zgrill 11002b to my PB 850 and the stable temps w/ biscuit test and bigger size it works great. I will say when i first got it the BT/WIFI was a nightmare, but its all good now. Your chicken thighs looknlike the skin turned out pretty crispy, awesome. Cooked them 4 times now and last batch pulled skin and mucho fat off prior to smoking, turned out really jucy and no rubbery skin, LOL. Grest group of smokers on here with great advice.
 
I had some of the Costco pellets - mixed with some charcoal pellets. It was a 50/50 blend. Truly, different. Was good for a first try, kept temp well too. Tonight I have 9# shoulder on...
What's your assessment of the charcoal pellets? I have some, (Royal Oak) haven't tried them yet.
Could you notice any more (or less) smoke?
Charcoal taste?
Was the burn time per lb about the same as wood pellets?
