Flavour Guide: STRONG

*NEW* Now supplied in strong, natural kraft bags. FSC certified, sustainable, renewable and can be recycled many times.

Oak is our most popular smoking dust and it’s now available in a new money saving 1kg pack, giving you more cold smoke flavour for less. It’s a favourite is because it’s one of the most versatile cold smoking wood flavours and because it has a reliably consistent particle size, which is perfect for cold smoking in mesh tray cold smokers such as the ProQ Cold Smoke Generator.

It produces a heavy but rounded, strong smoke which will complement most robust flavoured foods – but also works well with other lighter flavoured foods if you love a certain depth of smoke flavour. Delicious with meats, cured pork, fish and vegetables and a favourite for smoked salmon and cheeses. It is a deep dark colour and a consistently fine particle dust.

The dust particles are between 1 and 2mm, so the optimum size for reliable smouldering in the ProQ Cold Smoke Generator and other slow smoulder cold smokers which can be used in a regular BBQ or any ventilated smoking compartment. It is also suitable for stainless steel tray style smokers such as the Camerons.

This 1kg bag will give you 100 hours of cold smoking in a ProQ generator. Packaged in cellophane bags your dust will be kept dry, though we recommend the bags are resealed after use and stored in a cool dry place. This way your wood dust will deliver great results for up to 2 years.

Also available in 500g bags £6.95 and larger 5kg bulk pack £34 (For larger volumes from 15kg, please get in touch for our wholesale price list at info@hotsmoked.co.uk)
