"When I first used this with Brats, we thought someone secretly rolled them in brown sugar before putting them in the smoker! We were blown away with the sweetness this Pear Wood imparts to sausage and fish. We use it on the grill top at the shop routinely and it never lets us down. It has become my favorite for Bratwurst in particular and rivals the Apple Wood with Salmon in my opinion."
Pear Wood Chunks
PitMaster Premium
Pear Wood is a mild variety, with some similarities to Apple Wood, but with the sweetness cranked up a notch or three. We find this an excellent match for Sausage and Seafood, while being similar to Apple Wood on Rib and Shoulder cuts. Excellent for Grill Top smoking in the smallest format.
Part of our PitMaster Premium line, this product has been naturally seasoned and has a higher moisture content than kiln-dried wood. This product is mostly comprised of a variety of "rounds" of differing sizes, typically including bark. Some insect damage may be present, but is less typical. Please see product pictures for examples in each size.
Mini-splits now available! (5.5" long, width varies from 1-3" on avg.)
Please note:
We highly recommend you open your package/s immediately after receipt to allow the wood to breathe and avoid damaging the contents. Pitmaster Premium products have intentionally higher moisture content for premium performance when used in BBQ that can lead to product damage in an enclosed environment. We are not liable for product damage after receipt. Use your hardwood responsibly!
