Smoking wood chunks

WEBER Hickory Wood Chunks 1.5 kg, Part No. 17619

Chunky hardwood pieces for low-and-slow smoking with a bold hickory aroma.

WEBER Hickory Wood Chunks 1.5 kg (part 17619) are made for low-and-slow cooking with the lid closed, when food needs hours of smoke to build flavour. The chunks are 100% natural hickory (Carya) sourced in the USA and Mexico. A 1.5 kg bag covers several smoking sessions, since one load is just a few chunks placed on the embers.

Rich hickory flavour for pork, beef and game

Hickory delivers a strong smoky aroma with a subtly sweet edge, the classic choice for pulled pork, brisket and wild game. The profile stays present through fattier cuts and long cooks.

Solid hardwood chunks that burn slowly through long cooks

The chunks catch quickly and then smoulder for a long time instead of burning away in minutes like thin chips. That makes them the right fuel for low-and-slow sessions where meat stays under the lid for hours.

No soaking needed before use

Place the chunks straight onto charcoal or briquettes once they are covered with a light grey layer of ash, then close the lid. Soaked wood spends its first minutes releasing steam rather than clean smoke.
