Hi Guys, I have a gourmet salt company,I have been smoking my flake salt using shavings from used wine barrels, both French and American oak. The wood is pure and free of any nasties as it is food grade. I can be contacted at akcint@westnet.com.au .

Apologies for the mistake – email should be jim@malleeking.com.au

The mesquite is sourced from Karratha where it grows as a pest, quite a lot of effort involved in getting it, but well worth it to the serious smoker.

My name is Jim, and I run the Corrigin Mallee Shed over in Western Australia.

I stock a wide range of woods for smoking, including mesquite, hickory, sheoak, apple, peach, olive, jam, mallee – I have it in saw dust form, in chips, or in chunks or logs.

I’d encourage anyone from this site interested in quality smoking woods (all sourced from Western Australia) to get in touch via
jim@malleeking.com or check out the website.

Thanks

Also @ Ute Sarauer- As ‘your daughter states, you can find international smoking chips all over the place- just have to look.

Eucalyptus wood makes excellent smoking for fish and meats. You are probably thinking that it doesnt due to associating Eucalyptus with the oils in Euclyptus- however these oils are the leaves not the wood. Red Gum is similar to Oak and Melaleuca or Paperbark is similar to Hickory. Tasmanian salmon is smoked with Tasmanian hardwoods such as various Eucalyptus varieties.

@ Ute Sarauer – You can find wood chips etc in BBQ Galore , Rays Outdoor and Anaconda, if you seek and get out of the house you will find them…..or go back to your home country if you dont like Australia…

Hello, I am looking for mesquite wood, do you know where can I buy some? In Peru we call this tree Algarrobo, and gives a beatiful taste to the BBQ chickens. I don’t want it blended though, would prefer logs than chips.

Thanks

I’m one frustrated would be smoker, if only i could find fruit wood chips or sawdust in Australia. I tried all online and offline to obtain apple-peach wood chips here in Auss but no go, all they selling in BBQ galore is euqalyptus woods which I do NOT want to use to cure meats and fish. Makes me want to curse Australia for being so far away from everything.
Any help in pointing me in the right direction is welcomed.

I’m keen on identifying where large amounts of mesquite or hickory (preferably mesquite) can be obatined in Australia to go into my Texas smoker. Given mesquite is a weed of national significance in Australia, you might think someone is trying to get rid of it from somewhere!
Anyhow, if anyone knows where to obatin mesquite in bigger quantities than just chunk-sized – I’ve love to know!
