Fruity and mild smoky flavour
Made from cherry wood
Suitable for meat, fish and vegetables
Forget flat, one-dimensional flavors from your grill: with the Grill Fanatics Cherry Smoking Chips, you give every dish a soft, subtly sweet smoke sensation that your guests will still be talking about weeks later. Just a handful of these cherry wood chips is enough to elevate poultry, pork, or grilled vegetables to a level where your barbecue suddenly becomes a true culinary experience. And all it takes is one simple, no-nonsense move.
Why Cherry Wood Is Your Secret Weapon on the BBQ
Not all smoking wood is created equal. Where some wood types produce a heavy, overpowering smoke, cherry wood does the exact opposite. It releases a subtle, fruity tone - light, elegant, and never intrusive. Think of a whisper of sweetness that settles like an invisible layer over your food. You taste it, but it never drowns out the natural flavor of your ingredients. That's what makes cherry wood so incredibly versatile and beloved by beginners and seasoned grill masters alike.
The Grill Fanatics Cherry Smoking Chips are carefully selected for chip size and moisture content, ensuring an even smoke and giving you full control over the smoking process. No surprises - just pure, beautiful flavor.

How to Use Smoking Chips Like a Pro
The beauty of smoking chips is that they're incredibly accessible. You don't need an expensive smoker and you don't need years of experience. Grab a handful of Grill Fanatics Cherry Smoking Chips, optionally soak them for 20 to 30 minutes in water (this extends the smoking time and prevents them from burning too quickly), and place them directly on the hot coals of your kettle barbecue. Using a gas barbecue? Simply place the chips in a smoker box or wrap them in a small aluminum foil packet with a few holes poked in it. As soon as the first wisps of smoke appear, the magic begins.
For a hot and fast preparation - think chicken wings, schnitzels, grilled peppers, or a tender pork tenderloin - these chips are at their absolute best. The small chip size means the cherry wood starts smoldering and releasing smoke quickly. Within minutes, that gorgeous, lightly fruity smoke penetrates your food. The result? A subtly smoked flavor layer that gives your dish just that extra depth, without it tasting like it spent hours in a smokehouse.
And that's precisely the power of cherry wood: it strikes the perfect balance between "wow, this tastes incredible" and "hmm, what is that flavor?" It keeps your guests guessing at the table - while you just smile with a knowing wink.
The Perfect Match: Which Dishes Pair Best with Cherry Wood?
Cherry wood is a genuine all-rounder, but there are combinations where it truly shines:
- Poultry - Chicken, turkey, duck: the mild cherry smoke aroma complements the delicate flavor of poultry like no other wood type can
- Pork - From spareribs to pulled pork and pork tenderloin: the light sweetness of cherry beautifully balances the natural richness of pork
- Game - Venison, rabbit, or pheasant: the fruity undertone of cherry wood tempers the bold game flavor and makes the dish more approachable
- Vegetables - Don't forget that smoked vegetables are an absolute game changer. Think zucchini, bell peppers, eggplant, or even half a cauliflower - with a touch of cherry smoke, it becomes a main course worthy of the spotlight
Don't be afraid to experiment, either. A smoked salad with cherry wood-grilled tomatoes? Trust us: your friends will be asking for the recipe. You can also combine the Grill Fanatics Cherry Smoking Chips with a bolder wood type like hickory or oak if you want more body in your smoke - that's how you create your own signature flavor profile.
💡 Tip from Cookinglife:
Want to add an extra dimension to your smoke game? Instead of soaking your chips in water, try apple juice or a light wheat beer. The sugars in the liquid caramelize during the smoking process, adding an even more complex, subtly sweet undertone to your food. Especially with poultry, this is an absolute must-try. Do it once and you'll never go back to plain water again.
Quality You Can Taste
Grill Fanatics stands for smoking wood you can rely on. No waste wood, no mystery blends - just pure cherry wood produced in the Netherlands with a sharp eye for consistency. Every bag delivers the same reliable smoking experience. That might sound like a small detail, but anyone who's ever opened a bag of smoking wood with irregular chips or damp wood knows: consistency is the difference between a successful barbecue and pure frustration.
The chips come neatly packed in a convenient 500-gram bag - enough for multiple grilling sessions, but not so much that you need half a shed for storage. Keep them dry, and you'll always have smoking wood on hand whenever the BBQ moment presents itself.
