Pure Smoke Wood Chunks

Some fruity characteristics: Apple, sweet cherry, sour cherry, apricot, plum, various grape varieties, blackberry, and blackcurrant cuttings.

A general note on the wood: use only dry material; never use wet or green wood, as this will spoil both the flavor and the texture of the meat.

Apple: offers a mild, fruity flavor profile; suitable for smoking pork, poultry, and fish. If you are aiming for classic Texas-style smoking with a focus on brisket, use it in the form of wood chips alongside acacia or oak. When smoking chicken or pork, you can use it in larger quantities or even on its own. Price: 29€/bag 3 kg pack

Sour cherry: perhaps its color is its most valuable attribute. If we say that sweet cherries impart a red hue to meat, this is even truer for sour cherries, which lend a deep red color to roasts. Their flavor is also far more intense than that of sweet cherries. They stand up well on their own, even when paired with beef. Purchase price: 29€/bag 3 kg pack

Apricot and plum share many similarities. Apricot tends to impart a slightly more vibrant character to meats—creating an exciting and distinctive profile, especially with fish and poultry. However, it can also be combined with intensely flavored blackcurrant wood to create a truly unique aroma. Price: 29€/bag 3 kg pack

Grapevine cuttings (Muscat Ottonel, Pölöskei Muskotály, Irsai Olivér)—primarily the spicy, Muscat-style varieties. It is no coincidence that these varieties are enjoying a growing renaissance, not in winemaking, but in the realm of *pálinka* (fruit brandy) distillation. In the United States, California is the region where grapevine cuttings and vines are most frequently used for smoking. The smoke from Muscat varieties is full-bodied and aromatic, distinctively delivering a fruity grape flavor. Beyond this characteristic fruitiness, it possesses an inimitable, peppery quality that brilliantly enhances the depth of basic salt-and-pepper seasoning on meats. As these are thin cuttings, they burn away quickly; they are usually added at the end of the smoking process to highlight the primary spices. They are essential for chicken, pork, and fish, as well as for Santa Maria-style beef. Purchase price: 36€/bag 2 kg package

Blackcurrant and blackberry. These two types of wood can pack a serious punch. I recommend measuring them out with precision—like using a pharmacist's scale. Their aroma and flavor are truly incomparable—especially the blackcurrant. Anyone who has held fresh blackcurrants in their hand—not the frozen kind or juice, but the fruit picked straight from the bush—knows what "intense flavor" really means. These are spices for true Pitmasters; you really need to know exactly when and how much to use. However, they are definitely worth experimenting with—using a moderate amount at the end of the smoking process. And once you get a taste for them, there’s no turning back. Price: 36/bag 2 kg pack
