Birch is a traditional and versatile wood type that suits pork, poultry, fish, and fresh vegetables exceptionally well. The fine coarseness is specially developed to ensure an even and controlled smoldering. It is tailored for use in automatic and electric smoke generators like Borniak and Holmsmoker, where fine mesh wood chips are required so as not to clog the mechanism. By choosing a bulk sack, you get an incredibly long lasting and economical solution for your regular smoking needs.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions
Is birch suitable for smoking salmon?
Yes, absolutely! In the Nordic region, birch is actually one of the most widely used types of wood for smoking salmon and trout, precisely because it provides an incredibly clean and mild smoke flavor that perfectly complements the fish.
Do I need to soak the wood chips before use?
This depends on your equipment. If you use electric smokers and generators (like Borniak), the chips should always be used dry so as not to ruin the feeding mechanism. If you are going to use it in a smoker box over direct heat on a gas grill, it may be a good idea to soak the chips for half an hour first to create more steam and prevent them from burning up too quickly.
