Cherry Wood Chunks for Smoking Food (8 flavours available) - Large 7-9KG / 25 Litre Box -Kiln Dried Wood -Chunks for Smoking Food on BBQ’s/Barbeques. (Cherry)

Very aromatic smoke, burns well, delivered faster than scheduled. Will order again bigger box

Cuts are good sizes, all providing rich flavour when smoking, of course mixed with the correct charcoal at the right heat and the chunks have a great burn time! Will be coming back for next BBQ season

Wood is ok. Didn’t weigh the box but felt about right for the lower estimate of weight 7kg. Burnt ok. Flavour was ok. All in all, good service, average quality wood and a bit expensive for what you actually receive. Would I buy it again? Not if I can find it cheaper but yes if not. The product doesn’t sway me.

I BBQ regularly using either a Pro Q bullet smoker or a Masterbuilt gravity fed smoker. I’ve ordered from this seller twice now and both times the wood has been excellent. This time I ordered cherry. There are mostly really positive reviews for this company but for whatever reason some of the more negative ones appear near the top so I felt compelled to write this for some balance and hopefully to give some pointers if you’re deciding what wood chunks to buy. Let’s start with what you get from the big high street brand of chunks you’ll find in decent garden centres. Their bags of wood chunks are about £10 for 1.5kg. The chunks are fairly uniform and fit in the palm of your hand. They’re great, ready to use, and only marginally more expensive than gold. They’ve also been shipped from the USA, so if you care about cost or the environment, they’re not a great choice. By comparison, these wood chunks equate to £10 for 4.5kg, so you get three times as much for your money. You also get locally grown sustainable wood, if that’s important to you. As is the case with every quality local supplier I’ve found, the compromise, if it is one - I personally think it’s part of BBQ, is that you have a little more to do before using them. When I say a little, it’s a 30 second job. The chunks will be fist size, maybe bigger. To get good results, assuming you’re using them a couple of chunks at a time with charcoal as most do, you really want to break them down into the kind of sizes that big brand sells. You can use an axe if you have one, but I sit them on the floor and give them a tap with a garden spade. They split really easily and you’ll get 3 or 4 pieces from each chunk. You’re much better off adding a few smaller pieces over the duration of your cook than having one large one sit smouldering the whole time - that’s when you can get that acrid over smoked taste. Smaller chunks will burn at the right rate and create light blue smoke - the truck is you want to hardly be able to see it, I’d you’ve put a couple of small chunks on, you know they’re burning, but you can only see a faint bit of smoke - that’s perfect. If you have big white plumes of smoke surrounding your ribs or brisket and leaking from your smoker, your food taste like you’ve just pulled it out of a house fire, regardless of what wood you’re using. I hope these suggestions help - in my experience these guys supply a great product, you just need to make sure you use it right.

Nice smell to the wood and really have the meat a lovely smoky flavor - burns well but didn't last as long as I thought it would so value for money I'm on the fence although I would buy it again lol

I bought these to use with my Masterbuilt gravity series barbecue when I’m smoking. Fantastic chunky wood for doing so. The box has wood varying in sizes from small splits to larger Guinea pig sized chunks.Great smoke profile and should good value for money. Will definitely purchase again.

Always does what it says, good smoke flavour

Ok so the Apple wood added a lovely flavour when smoking. However I didn’t feel I could use these chunks right out the box. There was a smell of dampness to the wood and the bark was really difficult to remove so I ended up filling my oven with the Apple wood chunks and baking them for 2 maybe 3 hours at 90c. This dried them out fully and allowed the bark to come off. Also the chunks are not of a very consistent size there were some tiny pieces and some large chunks that needed cutting in half.
