BBQ Smoking Olive Wood Chunks - 5kg

I bbq regularly and finding affordable wood chunks is brilliant. This offered excellent value compared to other options online - and I've looked far and wide! I ordered the hickory chunks for my Weber kettle. The chunks are good quality and it's clear that they've been stored well. Some hickory chunks are hefty, which will lend itself well to long low and slow smokes using the minion method. Bbqing in the UK can be challenging, as the products are often US based and prices and availability can be a nightmare. 'Grilling Wood' is a small British company and it's great to support that in the world of bbq. Also, when I've contacted them with a query the customer service has been top class and they went above and beyond. I've ordered olive, oak and orange from them. The quality across these different species has been high and the company will be my 'go to' for a product that I go through a lot of.

Great wood. Used in a Kamado to smoke pork shoulder and beef joints and the flavour is fantastic. Night and day vs the Weber wood chips that the garden centres sell. One chunk seems to last about 2 hours which is enough to get a gorgeous pink smoke ring. The smoke was quite strong on pork, milder in beef so I’d suggest doubling up if you want really smokey beef. It seems to need the temperature to be over 250 deg F to burn properly. My Kamado cooled down to around 225 and when I got the temp back up to 275-300 again a healthy smoke was coming out of the chimney. I’ll be buying again. Shame they don’t seem to sell Mesqiite even though the box has a tick for it? And people stop moaning that the box contents isn’t 5kg because of the box weight. These are chunks of wood ffs. I’d rather not get sawdust added to get the net weight to exactly 5kg. Mine weighed 5.15kg on delivery inc box.

Great smoke flavour espicially pork shoulder and ribs. Word of like a few more chunks. But was enough for 2 big BBQ evenings for my barrel smoker.

Quite a few reviews on here about short measures (weight) but I had no such problems. Paid for 5kg of wood and the box arrived stating a shipping weight of 5.6kg, I weighed it and it was 5.6kg, the box is a lot lighter than 5.6kg so very pleased. The wood chunks are very consistent so no mixing going on and I sitting here watching good smoke from the offset while smoking some beef ribs.

I bought the olive wood because I like to cook T-bone steaks and Lamb Legs on bbq with wood without using charcoals. The olive wood gives a nice smoky flavour to the meat.

What can I say - delivery within 24 hours of order, some quality wood! Will buy again for sure! If you have a BBQ or a smoker, definitely the place to go for wood

Had plenty of BBQ with these things and they really do put an amazing flavour into the meat

Item proudly stated 4.9kg on the label. Weighed it with the box and came up at 30 grams over that including the box. Considering some of the lumps inside were around the 80 gram mark it appears that they are deliberately sending them out under weight. Not as bad as they were from some other reviews. As for the wood it’s a good product that’s making a good smell with a nice light coloured smoke on the bbq at the moment. I would give more stars but I feel deliberately short changed.
