Napoleon Maple Wood Chips are made from the sugar maple tree, also known as hard maple, and provide a sweet, subtle, and balanced flavor perfect for smoking meats and seafood. Much like other fruitwoods such as cherry, maple imparts a delicate sweetness that enhances flavors without overpowering the food, making it a go-to choice for ham, bacon, poultry, pork, and fish like salmon, arctic char, and trout.
To get the most out of your Maple Wood Chips, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before use, or get creative with soaking liquids like apple juice, chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, honey brown lager, or even maple lager for added flavor. Once soaked, load the chips into a Napoleon Smoker Pipe and place it on the sear plates of your gas grill, or put them into the integrated smoker tray of your Prestige PRO™ Series PRO665RSIB Gas Grill or on the lit charcoal of an Apollo® 3 in 1 Charcoal Grill and Water Smoker.
As the chips begin to smoke, place your food on the grill, close the lid, and let the smoky sweetness infuse your ingredients. For optimal flavor, keep the lid closed throughout the smoking process to trap the delicious smoke inside.
