Kit includes 5 lbs. each hickory, mesquite, apple, and cherry for a total of 20 lbs. of wood. One pound of wood will smoke approximately 60 lbs. of product. The Kit has enough wood for smoking approximately 1,200 lbs. of product. Hickory is a traditional favorite, with a sweet smoke good for just about everything. Mesquite is a brasher, bolder flavor, great with beef. Good with fish, but go lightly. Apple is a mild fruitwood, good with pork and poultry. Cherry has a strong flavor. Try it with duck or prime rib of beef. Always err on the side of too little wood when loading your smoker. A small piece of wood puts out an amazing amount of smoke. If you don't get as much smoke as you want, you can always add more smoke with the next load. If you put too much smoke on a load, you won't want to eat it! Too little is better than too much. Cookshack woods are "chunks" approximately 2x2x3". Chunks of this size are necessary to supply enough wood resin to expose to the heat source for good flavoring.
This wood assortment is perfect for our household, as we smoke a variety of meats. The boxes are well marked and we always know when we need to order more.
Cookshack Smokers flavor food with small wood chunks smoldering over an electric heating element. Use this smoker year round outside in your garage, driveway or patio to smoke or cold smoke a variety of foods; or use the oven without wood. It is easy to move on its four lockable casters. It is easy to clean, the grills and racks go into the dishwasher.
My wife and I were just talking about my smoker. We have been married 15 years and it has been part of my life for probably 17 years, maybe more. The only thing close to an issue i have ever had with it was smoking a brisket on a very hot day (95+) in the sun. The electronics over heated. Moving it into the shade and it started right back up and finished nicely. My bad and lesson learned. I'll be back to buy another one, if this one ever has any issues.

I have had cook shack smokers for over 10 years and love them! The cooking temperature is consistent, and everything I’ve tried has turned out fantastic! I even bought another one for my summer residence!
Best Purchase Ever!

I bought my Smokette in 2004, 20 years ago, and still use it all the time, without a lick of trouble.
It does the most fantastic job!

SM025 ..I have been using this smoker that i purchased new for i would guess 10 years. I have smoked everything and NEVER had anything turn out bad. In the beginning i did use the Cookshack user recipes that pointed me in the correct direction.
The only issue i have had with my smoker was the temperature probe broke and i replaced it. I have nothing bad to say about the unit and do recommend to anyone with any ability level.
