BBQ Smoking Wood Chips Lemon - Grill Fanatics

Not every smoking session has to last hours. These lemon smoking wood chips from Grill Fanatics are fine lemon wood chips that give off their aroma within a few minutes, exactly enough for fish, chicken, shrimp or grilled vegetables that don't need to sit at the fire for long. The smoke stays light and fresh with a citrus-like tone, so finer products are complemented rather than overpowered.

Why this wood type

Heavy smoke types leave a strong stamp on a dish, and you don't always want that at the table. Lemon wood is a pleasant choice if you're just starting out with smoking, or if someone eating with you prefers not to taste a heavy smoke flavour. Working with a kamado bbq, you simply scatter the chips dry over the glowing coals.

• Mild, fresh smoke flavour that doesn't overpower fish and poultry
• Fine chips, so instant smoke once they're on the coals
• 1 kg bag, plenty for quite a number of sessions
• Works on the kamado and, with a smoker box, on gas too

How to use them

Place a handful of chips on the coals once you've reached the desired temperature, or fill a smoker box with them if you're working on gas: there are no coals there for the wood to smoulder on. Close the lid straight away so the smoke stays put. Use a little too little rather than too much, you can always add more. For a long session with, say, pulled pork, you're better off choosing smoking wood chunks, which smoulder for hours.
