Product Description

Smoke with character

These aren’t just any wood chunks. Our Sherry BBQ Smoking Chunks are made from the very barrels that once held ageing Sherry — retired Spanish oak casks that have spent years absorbing the rich, complex character of one of Spain’s most iconic fortified wines. Sourced directly from Spain and dried to the perfect moisture level for smoking, each chunk carries with it a depth of character that ordinary hardwood simply cannot replicate.

When placed on hot coals or inside a smoker, Sherry Barrel Chunks release a slow, steady smoke with warm sweet notes, toasted nuttiness, and a subtle dried fruit richness inherited from the Sherry itself. The result is a rounded, deeply satisfying smoke flavour that elevates everything from slow-cooked pork belly to richly marbled beef short ribs.

How to use

Sherry Barrel Chunks are designed to be used as smoking chunks — not chips. Their larger size means they burn more slowly, giving you a sustained smoke over a longer cook. They work brilliantly on all BBQ setups including offset smokers, kamado grills (such as Big Green Egg or Kamado Joe), kettle grills, and pellet-fed smokers with a chunk box.

No soaking required. Dry chunks produce cleaner, more consistent smoke than wet ones. Simply place 2–3 chunks directly onto lit charcoal or your heat source before closing the lid and cooking low and slow.
