California Red Oak Chips

Even though I don't live on the central Coast anymore, I still cook my tritip on my Santa Maria style BBQ grill with Susie Q's seasoning. Since it's hard to find red oak near me, it's nice to know I can get some on this web site. Thanks!

Susie Q's Red Oak is the best wood I've ever used on tri-tip and or prime rib to smoke with! I've used a lot of different Oak and Susie Q's Red Oak is the best hands down!

California Red Oak Chips infuse meats with the most scrumptious flavoring. When California Red Oak Chips are used, the result is amazing flavor and aroma. California Red Oak Chips are absolutely essential for grilling and roasting Santa Maria tri-tip.

This is my first time trying red oak after learning that this is the type of wood my favorite local BBQ joint uses. I've found that it's surprisingly difficult to buy red oak in chip form (which is what I need for my grill). So far, it's my favorite flavor wood! The quality of Susie Q's chips is excellent. There are no tiny pieces/shavings settled at the bottom of the bag like all of my other smoking chips. They are all of relatively uniform size as pictured on the website, which shows that the company is careful to deliver a good product to the customer and not fill the bag with useless pieces to save cost. My only wish is that Susie Q would offer a larger package of these. I ordered the "Large" bag and it's really not very big. Red oak is a mild smoking wood and you need to use a lot of it to get flavor into food, so the bag I ordered isn't going to last very long. It would be nice if I could order a 5-10lb box and use my own container. My only complaint is that I can't buy as much of the product as I'd like to.

I was born and raised in SM, but live in Washington state now. Suzie Q is my go to for the oak Chips. DON'T BBQ without them. They make all the difference!!!!
