I wasn't sure if the chip size would work with my electric smoker but the chips are perfect. This was a fantastic value and once the snow stops, I'm going to make another batch of smoked salmon. Highly recommend this seller and this product.

Used chips on blueberries seems to be what I ordered

Came quickly. Chips are nice and small, thin and clean! I do use wood for smoking, but not alder. This is actually for wood loving mushroom species cultivation. Certain species really prefer specific wood types. And alder can sometimes be one. Chips are appropriate for either purpose - meats or mushrooms. I did light and put out a piece. Has a wonderfully nice strong alder smoke aroma. I might have to keep a bowl of chips and lighter in my house as a midwestern incense. Hmm.

Best way to buy bulk alder chips for smoked salmon. Big bag will last a couple of years.

So pleased with the Red Alder Smoking Chips. Just smoked a batch of fresh salmon and couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Haven't been this pleased with the chips since we left Ketchikan, AK.

I'm so pleased with this vendor. They are local and always deliver via UPS ground plus they give me a discounted rate adjustment after the order has shipped since I live in Washington. Great chips at a great price.

This product arrived timely and as advertised. It make great smoke, I use it to smoke my Alaska salmon and it gave it that same flavor I grew up with in Alaska, maybe even a little better because it it did not have the bark on it like dad would sometime do if the chunk was to small. I bought the 20 # bag and wish I had ordered two now.

This is my second load of alder chunks I use for smoking salmon. The alder provides a really nice smoke, and the salmon is to die for. As did other reviewers, I looked with amazement at the load of chunks and wondered if I would ever use it. I did, in about a year.
