Product Description

 Throughout the entire Southwest mesquite is plentiful and was undoubtedly used as campfire wood for early range riders and pioneers. Mesquite grilled meat, from beef to everything else, was surely the staple of the day. The traditional mesquite is still popular today. However, because of the fast growing nature of mesquite it quickly made its way to the Northeast as an ornamental for farms, parks, and cemeteries. The shortened growing season in Maine has produced a mesquite with tighter growth rings and a much sweeter and milder smoke flavor.  Recently, four of America's best known chefs requested a special pallet of Maine northern Mesquite chips for a high profile event in Chicago.

If you like the strong mesquite smoke which can sometimes overpower your entree, you will love the compatibility and flavor of our northern mesquite chips.

Do not soak your northern mesquite wood chips unless you are looking for an unusual steam flavor.  If that is the case, we recommend honey whiskey for a special treat.

Our northern mesquite chips are packed in 10lb or 33lb boxes with free ground shipping anywhere in the USA.
