Pastilles de Aroma - Apple Smoking Wood - Best Charcoal
- Mild, slightly sweet apple smoke without a sharp aftertaste
- Compact and pressed, so it burns down calmly and evenly
- 1 kilo bag, good for plenty of smoking sessions
For anyone still practising smoking on the kamado, these apple smoking pastilles from Best Charcoal are a pleasant place to start. These are pressed apple wood blocks you place among or on top of your glowing charcoal, giving off a mild, lightly sweet smoke, mild enough that it's hard to go wrong.
Steady smouldering instead of a quick flare-up
Because the wood is pressed, a pastille burns down more steadily than a loose chip, so the smoke development lasts longer. Handy if you're letting a pulled pork or whole chicken cook for an afternoon on the kamado while you stay seated at the table and don't have to keep topping it up.
- Mild fruit smoke, good with pork, chicken, fish and poultry
- Pressed wood that smoulders slowly instead of flaring up briefly
- Works on ceramic kamados, kettle bbqs and smokers
- 1 kilo bag, supply for a whole season
Use
Wait until the coals are glowing well and then place one or two pastilles straight on the coals before closing the lid. More isn't more flavour: too many at once gives a sharp, sooty smoke.
