Product Overview

The Hickory Wood Chips infuse outdoor barbecue dishes with a bold, savoury smoke flavour suited to red meats like beef, pork and lamb.

These smoker accessories fit easily into a barbecue smoker box or foil pouch, making them ideal for backyard cooks who want to experiment with stronger smoke profiles. The 3L capacity supports multiple shorter cooking sessions, allowing you to try different quantities or blend with other wood types for custom flavours.

The chips come in a box measuring 95mm high, 185mm wide and 285mm deep, with a total weight of 1kg. Dry chips start smoking quickly, while soaked chips may delay smoke and add steam, giving you control over the timing and intensity of your barbecue.

They suit home grillers who want to experiment with smoking without committing to larger chunks or complex setups. Their key strengths are ease of use, flavour impact and flexibility. The main limitation is that chips burn faster than larger smoking wood pieces on longer cooks.

Key benefits

  • Hickory wood flavour: Adds a rich, smoky barbecue taste that pairs especially well with beef and other robust dishes.
  • Chip format: Lights and smokes quickly, making it a practical choice for shorter cooks and fast flavour infusion.
  • Experiment-friendly: Lets you trial different amounts or mix with other woods to fine-tune your preferred smoke profile.
  • Multi-cook bag: Provides enough wood chips for multiple barbecue sessions from a single pack.
  • Beginner-accessible: Offers an easy entry point for grillers wanting to explore smoking without specialist fuel choices.
  • Versatile smoke addition: Works well as a flavour booster when used alone or combined with other smoking woods.

Q: Are these wood chips suitable for long low-and-slow barbecue cooks?

A: No. Weber Hickory Wood Chips are better suited to shorter cooks because chips ignite and burn through faster than larger smoking wood pieces. For extended low-and-slow sessions, expect to replenish them more often to keep smoke flavour consistent.

Q: Do Weber Hickory Wood Chips replace your main BBQ fuel?

A: No. Weber Hickory Wood Chips are for adding smoke flavour, not for replacing the main heat source in your barbecue. They are best used alongside your usual fuel, so buy them for flavouring rather than as the fuel that does the cooking.

Q: Can you mix these hickory chips with other smoking woods?

A: Yes. These chips can be mixed with other smoking woods if you want to build a different smoke profile rather than using straight hickory. That makes them a practical option for trial and error, especially if you are still working out your preferred flavour balance.

Q: Will one bag last for more than one barbecue cook?

A: Yes. This bag is intended to cover multiple cooks, not just a single barbecue session. How long it lasts depends on how heavily you use smoke and whether you are topping up during longer cooks, because wood chips burn through faster than larger pieces.

Q: What foods suit hickory smoke flavour from these chips best?

A: Hickory smoke suits richer foods best, especially beef and other robust barbecue dishes that can handle a bolder smoke profile. It can be too strong for buyers chasing a very light smoke note, so using a smaller amount is the safer starting point.
