BBQ Chunks Olive - Grill Fanatics
- Spicy, Mediterranean smoke, fuller than fruit wood
- A few blocks are enough for a whole session
- Suits lamb, poultry, vegetables and fish
Not every smoking session has to be about beef. These olive wood chunks from Grill Fanatics give a herby, Mediterranean smoke that works just as well with a leg of lamb as with grilled vegetables or a whole fish, which makes them one of the most versatile wood types by the fire.
For a Mediterranean evening at the kamado
The smoke is fuller than that of fruit wood, but less heavy than oak or hickory, and stays well balanced as a result. Ideal if you are cooking an evening with friends around the kamado: bell peppers and aubergine gain a flavor from it that you are not used to from regular grilling, and a whole sea bream or leg of lamb benefits from it just the same.
- Herby, Mediterranean smoke
- Fuller than apple or peach, milder than oak
- Chunks smolder slowly and give hours of smoke
- 1 kilo bag, enough for several sessions
Use
Place two or three chunks between the dry charcoal before lighting, so they only start giving off smoke once the fire reaches them. Soaking is not needed.
