Smoking Wood Chips Red Wine/Oak - Grill Fanatics

Oak on its own is strong and spicy, these smoking wood chips from Grill Fanatics round it out by adding a red wine note. That produces a gentle smoke with fruity depth, fitting perfectly with lamb, duck and game on the kamado or plancha, without turning bitter.

Why chips for shorter sessions

Chips are small and come up to temperature quickly, so you get smoke almost right away. Handy if you are not standing by the fire for hours but just an hour or so, for example with a pork shoulder that does not need the whole afternoon.

• Gentle smoke with a fruity undertone
• Fast smoke development, suitable for shorter sessions
• 500 gram bag, dosed by the handful

Sprinkle a handful over thoroughly glowing coals and close the lid right away. For a longer session, repeat this every half hour. Soaking does not help, chips need to smolder, not steam. Also check other chips or switch to chunks for long sessions.
