Food Smoking Wood Shavings – 8 flavours

These Food Smoking Wood Shavings can be used to smoke food on your stovetop, home smoker, gas or charcoal braai.

Smoking gives food an extra dimension of flavour, it also changes the internal colour of the meat to a light pink as smoke is imparted into the muscle tissue.

Due to their size/texture (they are more shavings than chips), they smoulder for a shorter time to produce a delicious smoky flavour. Which also makes them quick and convenient to use.

How to use your Food Smoking Wood Shavings:

  • Soak the wood shavings in liquid (water or other beverages) for 1hr.
  • This will ensure that steam is generated when the soaked chips/shavings are used, which will add moisture and heat to the smoking process. This method also prolongs burning time. The key with wood chips & shavings is to deny the wood of oxygen so it smoulders and smokes.
  • Create a tin foil tray and place shavings in the centre of the tray.
  • Place the tray directly onto coals in your charcoal braai, add food to the grid and close the lid.
  • If using a smoker, follow the instructions of your specific smoker.
  • If using a gas braai, you’ll need a smoker box to use the shavings.
  • Or use a stovetop steamer, with the soaked shavings in the bottom with all the water drained off.

Available in Beech Wood, Cedar, Cherry, Hickory, Maple, Oak, Walnut & Wild Olive (see description below for uses). And they are sold in 100g bags.

What to use your Food Smoking Wood Shavings for:

  • Cedar Wood Smoke Shavings – is traditionally used for smoking fish & it is also fantastic for fruit and seafood. In the US cedar is often used to also cook other meat like chicken. But use with care as cedar imparts a sweet, spicy flavour and not everyone enjoys this possibly very spicy flavour!
  • Cherry Wood Smoke Shavings – has a subtle mild, fruity flavour and is excellent for poultry, fish, vegetables, and fruit. It also gives your food a fantastic colour and a subtler, sweeter smoky flavour. Perfect to use when you just want to compliment the flavour of your food and not overpower it.
  • Hickory Wood Smoke Shavings – creates a sweet, yet strong bacon-flavor. The smoke itself can be pungent, but it adds a nice, strong flavor to just about all meat cuts. And it is especially popular with pork and ribs.
  • Maple Wood Smoke Shavings – are great for smoking fruits, cheeses and pork. It has a mild and slightly sweet flavour so you can also use it for your poultry and small game birds.
  • Oak Wood Smoke Shavings – gives a heavier smoke flavour and is great for red meat and game. This is also probably the best wood to use for the best steak. It is one of the more popular woods to use for smoking, as it gives a lovely colour and a deep smoky flavour.
  • Walnut Wood Smoke Shavings – delivers a heavy smoke and is therefore excellent for strong-flavored red meat and game.
  • Wild Olive Wood Smoke Shavings – is ideal for any poultry as it has a fruity smell to it which adds sweetness to the meat.
  • NEW….Beech Wood Smoke Shavings – is a light, mild hardwood with a slight nutty flavour and a subtle companion to more delicate flavoured foods. It is ideal for smoking red meat, fish, nuts and cheeses and will add a refreshing feel to your plate.

Also available 500g bags, with a larger texture (more chips than shavings)  in only 2 flavours: Beech Wood and Oak.
