A Subtle Sweetness from Weber: Firespice Cherry Wood Chunks
When you bite into something you've made on the outdoor grill, you're expecting a taste you just can't find from an oven or indoor panini-press style grill. Whether you're holding a massive burger, slicing a tomahawk steak, or tearing into a brisket, you're in search of smoke. Supplement your outdoor cooker's inherent smoky flavor with slow-burning cherry wood chunks. While cherry wood chunks are traditionally used in long cooks in a charcoal grill or smoker, there are ways to incorporate its sweet fruity flavor in an easy-to-use gas grill, too. If you cook over a liquid propane or natural gas barbecue, you may have found that smoky flavor an elusive one to achieve in the past. Instead of using gas alone, invest in a smoker box. These steel boxes help to contain any chunks and chips you smoke over gas, keeping them from catching fire or damaging the interior of your machine as they burn up. Some high-end gas models have a smoker box already built-in. Add your Weber cherry chunks and close the lid to create your own smoker. This bag comes with 350 cubic inches of chunks, so if you're going to be smoking low-and-slow for hours, it's a good idea to have another bag on hand.
A Flavor Infusion
Whether you arrange your cherry wood chunks among the charcoal in your Kamado grill, water smoker, or liquid propane grill, you'll want to pick the right flavor profile for your protein. Like its namesake fruit, cherry wood is mild but sweet, and it's commonly used on poultry, beef, and pork. It mixes well with other woods, too, adding a subtle sweetness to darker flavors like hickory. Keep cheesy pizzas and veggies away from it, though, and save the pizza stone for another night—maple wood might be a better choice instead. Explore different flavors and do your own experiments. Other grillers will always have strong opinions about the best (and worst) ways to smoke up their favorite foods, so try out as many combinations as you can to learn what's best.
