NATURAL SMOKE: Pecan Wood Chunks | 100% Real Pecan Smoking Wood | 1kg

Hickory's sweeter cousin

Pecan and hickory come from the same family of trees, and it shows — except Pecan keeps things milder and sweeter. Hand processed and bagged in Myponga, South Australia, it's the versatile all-rounder in the Natural Smoke range.

The flavour

A mild, sweet-smelling smoke with good wood density, which means a medium burn time that suits longer cooks without demanding constant attention. Rated excellent on poultry and pork, good on beef, lamb and seafood.

Perfect on

• Roast chicken or pulled pork — the two pairings Natural Smoke rates excellent.
• Longer cooks generally, thanks to the wood's density and medium burn time.
• Anywhere you'd reach for hickory but want something a touch gentler.

The Rub Smuggler’s Verdict

I don’t do receipts; I do results — and pecan’s hickory’s sweeter cousin, mild enough for a first cook and dense enough to hold heat through a long one. Season the turkey or the pulled pork with Smoky Pastures Sweet Dreams Rub, then finish with Kosmos Q Honey Jalapeno BBQ Sauce for a little sting under the sweet. Reach for it anywhere hickory feels like too much.
