How to Use Western Premium BBQ Products Mesquite BBQ Cooking Chunks You can use Western Premium BBQ Products Mesquite BBQ Cooking Chunks for smoking meats in a variety of ways. They can be used in a charcoal gas or electric grill as well as personal and larger smokers. To use our wood cooking chunks for smoking in a charcoal grill load your grill with lump charcoal. At Western we recommend against using briquettes. Light the charcoal using your preferred method; however we would recommend you avoid using lighter fluid so your meat retains the natural mesquite smoke flavor. Several minutes prior to cooking add 3-5 dry mesquite cooking chunks on a standard grill so they have time to smoke. Add your meat to the grill close the lid and smoke until you achieve that great mesquite smoke flavor. Continue to add wood cooking chunks every 20-30 minutes during your cooking process. Make sure to add more charcoal around every hour to keep your cooking chunks smoking. If you re using wood cooking chunks for smoking your meats on a gas or electric grill place dry cooking chunks in a pyramid on top of a solid fire starter leaving an edge exposed. Light the fire starter. Let the cooking chunks burn for 15-20 minutes with the lid and all vents open. If you desire a milder flavor cook longer. Close the vents and lids and wait for the flames to subside. Spread the cooking chunks evenly on the grill and add your food. Close the lid and let the meat absorb that delicious mesquite smoke flavor. If you re using a smoker instead of the grill follow the manufacturer s instructions for smoking meat.
