FAQ

• How many smokes do 700g of chips deliver?+

  A bag covers 4-5 medium smokes (3-5 hours each) — a generous handful (40-50g) per session. Weekly smoker, the bag lasts about six weeks. Long bi-weekly brisket, you will run short — move to Axtschlag chunks (1.5kg) or large-format chips (3-5kg).

• What does apple add? Is it very different from cherry?+

  Subtler than cherry, slightly sweet and very "clean". If cherry is "cherry jam", apple is "mild compote" — a background smoke that does not fight the original flavour of the cut. That is why it works so well on oily fish (salmon, mackerel), pale-meat poultry (turkey, chicken) and cheese for smoking.

• Does it suit all kamados or only Weber grills?+

  It works for everything: any-brand kamado, Weber Kettle charcoal grill, electric smoker, pellet grill or gas smoke box. The "Weber" label is just the brand packaging it; the chips are FSC Polish apple wood that works in any smoke-cooking device.

• Do I need to soak them or not?+

  In a kamado, no — drop them dry onto hot coals. In a gas grill with a smoke box, soaking 30 minutes helps them last longer (because the smoke box temperature is higher than a kamado, otherwise they burn instead of smolder). In an electric smoker, model-dependent: check the manufacturer manual.
