Ok I don't really shop around much for variations of some products. I tend to find something, like it and stick with it. These Charbroil Mesquite chips are really good. The flavor is intense and the meats/poultry gets that nice deep pink/red color that's the quest of Q lovers. The packs are handy for the occasional smoke that I do (don't have time for more). I usually soak in warm water for 10 minutes to get them in the smoker quickly. My smoker is the home made variety of aluminium foil packs and they last for about an hour. They work surprisingly well for grilling directly when I need the smoke flavor without the wait. I just add a handful in the packet with another handful directly over the lava rocks for lots of smoke in a short time.

A little pricey, but a better price through Amazon than in my local stores. I smoked a turkey with this, to rave reviews - excellent smoke flavor and aroma. When I would take the turkey out of the refrigerator, the scent would permeate the entire kitchen, and everyone I served it to thought it was fantastic.

We have a "Great Outdoors" gas smoker, and we use these chips whenever we smoke whole chickens. Great flavor, what else can I say?!?

Good chips, but a LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY! An hour of smoke (real smoker) will over whelm almost any meat. Mix this into a 1 to 3 ratio with a lighter wood like Apple or Cherry. Don't recommend mixing this with Hickory chips; too strong a smoke.

gotta have the chips for grilling! We mix the mesquite with the applewood and hickory and you have a perfect combination!! Received these very fast; highly recommend!

The chips are as advertised, they are ideal for producing a lot of flavorful smoke in my propane grill. I think they would also be suitable for a charcoal grill too.

I have never used wood chips before and I know I like mesquite so I decided to give it a try. I cook a pork tenderloin and used a smoker pipe under the grids. To my surprise, the flavor was so strong it was almost overwheling. I enjoyed the pork no the less but I certainly learned a lot from that first try.

The flavor is strong so be warned but enjoy your foods!

We received the chips in a timely manner. I soaked some in a ziploc bag for a couple of days and smoked a chicken on Sunday. Superb. Amazon has never failed me.

Just started getting into smoking. Whoa this has got some smoke! I love it, but my wife is not a fan of it. Too smokey for her. If you're not sure if you like serious smoke, then I would recommend you steer clear of Mesquite.

I bought these chips when I ordered my smoker, only to find out that my local grocery had the same selection at a much better price. These were not bad chips, just not worth the extra cost and shipping over getting them locally.
