Unbeatable Smoky Flavors: Weber Mesquite Wood Chunks
Whether you're cooking brisket low and slow or trying to get a quick sear on some duck, mesquite wood chips and chunks can bring a new level of flavor to your barbecue. Transform your Weber grill into a smoker with these chunks. Before you select your smoking lumber and head to the butcher, consider your grill and whether you can actually smoke with it. Classic charcoal grills won't need any extra accouterments, as the mesquite lumber can burn right alongside your glowing briquettes. However, gas grills will require a smoker box. These metal boxes keep paper-thin mesquite wood chips away from the gas-fueled burners to avoid any hot spots or flare-ups. And while some higher-end models like the Weber Summit have smoker boxes built into them, you can purchase this grill smoker accessory separately and place it beneath your grill's grate on your own, too. While skinny chips will fit inside a smoker box, most mesquite wood chunks like these are larger and might not squeeze inside. If you're planning on grilling with large pieces like these in the future, opt for a charcoal grill or a full-blown smoker instead.
Harmonic Flavors
If they're too large to fit, why opt for big chunks over mesquite wood chips anyway? The answer lies in long-burning flavor. Many BBQ enthusiasts swear they can get a stronger aroma that penetrates food deeper from burning larger lumber, while chips can incinerate away much quicker. Both bring a strong smoky taste to whatever food you cook, and that's why it's important to match what you're cooking with specific wood varieties. Mesquite wood chips and chunks bring that unmistakable burning "barbecue" flavor to darker meats. Its strong aroma works particularly well with proteins like pork and beef as well as lamb and some game meat. Whatever you cook it with, know that these chunks can smolder for a while. After you've extinguished your fire, save any remaining lumber for your next fire.
