Product Description

Enjoy the distinct hickory smoke flavor from Western Premium BBQ Products. Take your cookout to the next level with Western Premium BBQ Products Hickory BBQ Smoking Chips. They are made from real heat-treated hickory wood to deliver a robust flavor to every meal. Hickory smoke can give your smoked meats a bold new layer of flavor. Smoking chips are a great way to add depth to the taste of your next barbequed meal. Kudos to you, fellow grill master. You got this far by adding some wood smoking chips to your grill to infuse your meats with a hickory flavor. Western Premium BBQ Products Hickory BBQ Smoking Chips are easy to use and they work on gas grills, charcoal grills, and electric smokers. The next time you’re thinking of making smoked meat for the family, add some Western Premium BBQ Products Hickory BBQ Smoking Chips to the grilling process. Be the cookout hero your friends and family deserve! If you’re using wood chips for smoking your meats on a gas or charcoal grill, place dry wood chips in a foil pack or a smoke box and place them over the heat. Let the hickory chips start smoking, and then move them to one side of your grill. Place your meat on the grill and close the lid. Cook to time or temperature you normally would, keeping the lid closed as much as possible. If you’re using wood smoking chips in a charcoal grill, load your grill with lump charcoal. Light the charcoal using your preferred method; however, we would recommend you avoid using lighter fluid, so your meat retains the natural hickory smoke flavor. Several minutes prior to cooking, fill a smoker tray or a foil pouch with one to two handfuls of chips. Place the tray or pouch on the hottest part of the grill surface until it begins to smoke. Once the chips have begun smoking, move them with tongs to make room for your future meal. Add your meat to the grill, close the lid, and smoke until you achieve that great hickory smoke flavor.

Reliable brand of a favorite smoke wood

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2016

Flavor: AppleSize: 6.23 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

It used to be that outdoor grillers used mostly hickory. Then we started trying various woods for different flavors. Today we have a variety of smoke woods available, either from local stores, online or from your own tree trimmings. Today, in addition to traditional hickory, I use red oak, pecan, cherry and apple mostly--sometimes a mix of several woods. I've begun to use apple wood more and more for almost everything I grill and smoke. It adds a light smoke flavor that doesn't overpower the food and it goes well with everything I've tried. I like chunks with charcoal and chips in a smoker box with gas. But I'm fine with chips tossed on the charcoal as well. I no longer soak smoke wood since it doesn't seem to make much difference.

The Western brand of smoke woods is a reliable brand. I find it available locally almost all the time in small bags like these on Amazon as well as large sacks in specialty stores or outdoor cooking sections of variety stores. It's good stuff. Buy it where you get it the cheapest.

This is really good wood. Definitely levels above competitors. the smoke is beautiful aromatic and inviting. It is not like cheap wood where you want to get away from the smoker while you're cooking. The thing I learned about wood is this test. Can you hang by the smoker with enjoyment while you are cooking or do you just walk over to the smoker to check your progress dreading the smoke?

I bought it a couple of months ago for my East Oak electric smoker. Under the flavor that comes out is amazing the meat is way darker (almost black), then other wood chips like oak. The size of the bag for the money is really great, and the wood chips are really nice size so without trouble you can load them up in any size container in any smoker. If you don't mind darker meat, I would recommend these!!

Switching and sticking with this brand.

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2017

Flavor: AppleSize: 6.23 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Though I prefer my Weber Smokey Mountain when it's hot out I use my gas grill. After trying several companies this is the brand I'm switching to for smoking on a 3-burner gas grill. Instructions state not to soak so today I didn't. Have tossed all my smoker boxes and now buy those 3/.99 loaf pans from the grocery store, cut a few holes in the bottom with the tip of my scissors, fill it with chips and place it uncovered in the back right on top of the flavor bars. Put that section on high and within five minutes or so the smoke starts. Leave it on high till the chips flare (which they probably will) and use a spray bottle to put the flare out. Put the butt on the either non-heated or very low heat sections and turn down the back burner. I take another small tray with chips and place it on the back section, right on top of the grate. This won't smoke by itself since you've turned the heat in the back down to control the overall temp. However, after ten minutes or so these chips are so dry that if you toss one or two kitchen matches on top they'll immediately ignite. As advertised, chips are easy to start (they're already kiln dried) and will smoke for 20-30 minutes. When you add in the second tray you get 45 minutes or so which experts say when done at the beginning of the smoke is more than enough. The trays are reusable so the cost is very low and for me they work much better that my smoker boxes. Hope this helps anyone trying to smoke on a gas grill.

Real Hickory Wood - Not "Hickory flavored" hardwood.

Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2019

Flavor: HickorySize: No SizeVerified Purchase

These smoking chips are excellent! This is one of four different kinds of wood I purchased from Western Premium BBQ Products. All of them have been amazing, although Hickory is still my favorite.

This product is the real deal, and the flavor proves it! Beware of cheap brands!!! Cheaper brands use cheaper hardwoods and simply flavor the wood with Hickory (or other) oil. This never works right, because the true flavor comes from the thermal breakdown of the various lignins that make up each kind of wood. Simply adding an oil doesn't do the trick. I'm using all of these in my Smoke Hollow 26142E 26-Inch Electric Smoker, and the results are finger-lickin' good!

Flavor: AppleSize: 6.23 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I really like the Western brand of BBQ wood chips.
They offer a wide variety of wood/flavors and they're priced pretty well.
My local big box stores have a hard time keeping them in stock, so when I run low, I buy them through Amazon.

About the chips, they're great
Consistent quality between bags
Nice thin chips and they burn very well.

Pricing - A bit more expensive than my big box store. I try to buy them locally since they're cheaper but when they're out of stock, I'm forced to buy from Amazon. Keep your eye on the prices here as they fluctuate a LOT
