Camerons Products Smoking Chips (Hickory) - Kiln Dried, All Natural Extra Fine Wood Smoker Sawdust Shavings - 1 Pint Barbecue Chips

I wanted to try these stove top chips before investing in a stove top smoker. I got a very heavy disposable foil pan and put 2 tablespoons of chips on the bottom, at the sides of the pan. Then I put my rack in with marinated salmon on top. The salmon filets were in the middle of the rack so they would not drip on the chips. I covered the pan tightly with heavy duty foil. I did turn on the stove fan, but found that it wasn't necessary at all. There was no smoke escaping from the pan. I turned the burner on very low and the fish was done to perfection in 10 minutes. It had a terrific hickory flavor, and it was moist and tender. CAUTION!!! I have since read that using a foil pan on a gas burner is not safe because the fire can burn through the bottom of the pan. Since I had a very low flame and a thick pan this did not happen, but I will not do this again!I tried this with a deep cast iron skillet and a cast iron dutch oven, both with racks in them, and cast iron lids. Perfect! I'm sure any oven safe stainless steel skillet would work too. I would not use a non-stick pan though, the heat may get too high and I'm not sure about toxic fumes. I read that the heat can get over 350 degrees in a covered pan.Hickory is a strong smoke and is more suitable for beef, pork and chicken. I will be purchasing the milder alder or apple chips for future fish preparation. The book Smokin' has good recipes, but I really more appreciated the detailed smoking times information for each food, and the suggested smoking chip flavors for each food. I had never thought of smoking garlic bread or pizza sauce either! Great book.Smokin': Recipes for Smoking Ribs, Salmon, Chicken, Mozzarella, and More with Your Stovetop Smoker Just a reminder, these stove top chips are really more the consistency of saw dust. This is so they will start smoking quickly when heated. They only smoke for about 20 minutes since that is all that is needed to impart the smoky flavor. The "low and slow" cooking comes when you put the food in the oven to finish cooking. For example, ribs or pulled pork. These chips would burn up too quickly on an outside grill. For that you would need the large chunks of wood. Whatever your method, smoke really adds terrific flavor to food, including vegetables, and it sure is fun to experiment!UPDATE: 7/3/17 I now own three smokers. Nordicware (for large things like whole chickens), and both the large and small Cameron's smokers. No more messing around with DIY smoking methods! Smoked garlic bread...holey smokes!

Perfect. I have the Nordic Ware 365 Kettle, but this should work for other indoor smokers as well. You only need one to two tablespoons each session so this container will last a long time. I chose Hickory because it is the best all around wood for most meats...or vegetables for that matter. 5 stars to Cameron's Products.

I smoke my own salmon using a Cameron's stovetop smoker and even though I have tried other flavors nothing beats hickory! The chips are small and easily fit under the smoker tray without raising it too far up. A couple of tablespoons will smoke a full filet of salmon.

Bought these for my new smoking gun. this container will last a long , long time . I would think 60 cooks of steaks.

Some one got me this stove top smoker and I never really used it untill one day i had some hours to kill and thought why not. Its fantastic and adds a great smoke flavor to any meat veggie even seafood. The mesquite and the hickory are the two chips i definitely use the most.

I have to give this 5 stars becuase it's exactly what it says it is - Sawdust Shavings. I prefer chips, which seem to smoke longer than shavings, but these did do the job.

Superb flavor for pork ribs (baby back or spare), chicken, beef (especially tri-tip) and even the salmon I tried (I usually prefer alder for salmon) and hot dogs (I get high quality meat counter (not packaged) hot dogs, split them down the middle, set up the smoker, sprinkle some fresh rosemary on the cooking surface and lay the hot dogs on that - the term wicked-awesome flavor comes to mind! I use these in my Nordicware 365 kettle smoker, they burn right and produce just enough smoke. I highly recommend this product.

Works really good, but don't use too much. Follow the directions and you will be pleased. This pint will last quite a while for a family of 4.
