What is wood dust used for in smoking?

Fine wood dust is made for cold smoking in a maze or generator, where it smoulders slowly for hours to produce cool, gentle smoke. It also works in hot smoking ovens. It is finer than the coarse chips used in BBQ smoke boxes.

Which flavours are in the variety pack?

You get four bags of wood dust: apple, oak, maple and hickory. That covers sweet fruit smoke, two classic all-rounders and a bolder, stronger flavour, so you can match the wood to fish, cheese or meat.

How much dust does each bag hold?

Each bag holds enough wood dust to fill a standard ProQ cold smoking maze. That makes loading the maze straightforward and gives you a predictable amount of dust per smoke.

Can I use this dust for hot smoking too?

Yes. While it is ideal for cold-smoking mazes, the same fine dust also works well in hot smoking ovens, so the pack is useful across both methods.

Is wood dust the same as wood chips?

No. Dust is much finer and is designed for cold-smoke mazes and generators. Coarse wood chips are made for BBQ smoke boxes and grills. Using the right grade gives a cleaner, more controllable smoke.

What can I cold smoke with these woods?

Cold smoking suits salmon, other fish, cheese, bacon and similar foods. Use milder apple or maple for delicate items, and oak or hickory when you want a stronger, smokier result.

Do I need a ProQ generator to use this?

The bags are sized for a standard ProQ maze, but the dust works in similar cold-smoking generators and mazes too. You will also need a cabinet or covered BBQ and a tealight to light it.

Is this a good gift for someone who smokes food?

Yes. For anyone with a ProQ or cold smoker, a four-flavour dust pack is a practical gift that lets them explore smoke flavours without buying large single bags.
