BBQ Smoking Oak Wood Chunks

Product Information

Still, as a fire pit it’s impressive, standing at 50cm high and 78cm wide. It’s safe, too, with a wide surround around the cooking area to keep the edges from becoming too hot. The cooking area is large, and there’s a durable grill made from 6mm chromium-plated steel, which distributes heat evenly. It will brown a burger and crisp up kebabs much better than the average garden grill. We've been smoking with BBQ wood chunks for many years and feel you should use smoke like you use salt and pepper on your food, sparingly! Read this description carefully. We will take you through how to get the best results and the most for your money. There are two that stand out. For the ultimate cooking experience, and the ability to griddle everything up to a whole turkey, the Char-Broil Kamander Charcoal Grill is a great choice.

If you want a do-it-all outdoor smoker that lets you grill, braise, bake, boil, and more, this is our favorite modular option. Dispose of the ashes: Once the coals have cooled completely, use a shovel (ideally a metal one) – to scoop them into a container. Never dispose of hot ashes in a plastic or paper container, as they can easily ignite.Traeger originated the pellet grill, and the brand makes the hardiest smokers we've tested thanks to the 13-gauge stainless steel exterior, cold-rolled stainless steel interior parts, and double side wall interior. This construction, along with the 36,000-BTU burner, allows for better and higher heat retention (500 degrees Fahrenheit to the Pro model's 450).

Michael Wheeler of wood supplier Sierrah Wood says because post oak and white oak are in the same family, “they have a pretty similar burn ratio,” so you can build and maintain a similar fire with either. He notes that if a supplier provided white oak instead of post oak, the main difference would be in the flavor of the smoke, with that of white oak being less distinctive than the vanilla flavors that come with post oak.

It is down to your preference if you soak them or not, experiment and find what is best for your cooking methods. Our smoking wood chunks come in a large 25 litre box and weigh 7kg – 9kg (depending on the species) giving excellent value for money. We are proud to supply only British hardwoods and fruitwoods. Still, as a fire pit first, and occasionally shared cooking around the table, the Thüros Tabletop Grill is a good choice. Read the full review The main choice with BBQs is whether to opt for a gas or charcoal model. Gas models (not featured in this list) are easier to light and are ready to go whenever you need them. Plus, they cook for as long as you have gas, so you don’t have to worry about topping up with fuel. You don’t quite get that proper BBQ taste, however. If you're going to buy just one grill for barbecuing, Traeger's Pro 575 is a tank built to maintain perfect temperature and last well over a decade.
