I love smoked meals. I used to eat a lot of smoked meats, but since I kept getting sick from eating meat a few years ago, I needed to find alternatives. I never thought I would, but I turned to plant based meats. While these do mimick the taste of real meat quite well, one thing I've noticed is that most of the plant based meats aren't smoked. I ordered this liquid smoke to add to some of my plant based meat recipes as well as some other foods. It really gives it a nice kick, it has such a strong smoky taste! I add this to my plant based tacos, burgers, ham, as well as to eggs, mashed potatoes, stuffing, quiche, macaroni and cheese and more. This is the best liquid smoke I've tried! Highly HIGHLY recommend trying!

I don't have a smoker, so I wanted to find a workaround. This does the job! I like the fact that I can add a few drops to soups, or any other food that I may wish, and it tastes wonderful! Almost as good as having a smoker… But a lot less expensive.

I’ve been using this for a few years. It has a good taste

Great to add that smoky flavor to vegan “meats”. Often it is the smoky flavor, garlic etc. that folks are missing ( not the dead flesh itself). We use this in tofu, seitan, Just Eggs, baked potatoes and so much more.

I cook a batch of beans every week. Often vegetarian, or just a touch of bacon or ham hock for flavor. A spoonful of liquid smoke, and some molasses always guarantees a delicious dish. I roasted a supermarket chicken. Not too much flavor in those. I mixed together 1 teaspoon each of smoke, molasses (or brown sugar) and black bean sauce. Rubbed the chicken, sprinkled with pepper. Yum. BBQ glaze. In a small bowl, according to your personal taste, mix catsup, brown sugar, soy sauce, molasses, mustard a few drops of smoke, maybe some hot sauce. Mix thoroughly. Brush on meat toward the end of grilling. Marinate meat in some soy sauce, brown sugar, and liquid smoke. Dip onion halves in the marinade and grill. Mixed a few drops into some vegetable oil, brushed on potatoes and roasted them. yum. it's great stuff!

I've always been a fan of that smokey flavor, but never got around to getting myself a bottle of liquid smoke. It really adds a lot of flavor to pretty much anything you cook it with. First I was told that I should only use a drop. However, the serving size is like a teaspoon or something to that effect. I use about 5 drops in a steak marinade for one steak and it really brings out the smokey flavor of the grill. I put it in with some potatos and fried them up and it was amazing. It adds a nice toasty taste to an endless number of dishes, and I recommend it to anyone why is not afraid of savory flavors.

I love this product, have used it for years. Flavor, smell, price: all perfect.

I do not have access to a smoker here, so I ended up making some pulled pork BBQ in my pressure cooker. This hickory smoke flavor was the perfect touch to make it taste like the BBQ back home and gave it that smoky flavor you would get from traditional cooking methods. I would definitely buy this again in the future.

Smells great, tastes great, easy to use, lots of strength so you just need a few drops to get a smokey flavour and that makes it great value for money. Not just for BBQ flavour, either. I like smoked fish chowder, but my favourite canned fish chowder isn't smoked, so a couple of drops and, bingo!, smoked fish chowder!

I have to say the flavour is a lot more subtle than I was expecting but the smell is out of this world! And the flavour is definitely there, I just have to use a bit more than expected. Definitely good quality, tasty, and excellent for us non-meat eaters who miss that smokey taste.

Really smoky, great with chicken and red meats

This stuff is fantastic. I live in an apartment, so having an outdoor smoker isn't really an option, and this gives my cooking that smoky flavour I've been missing. A little goes a long way, adding a real depth of flavour to things like pulled pork, brisket, sauces and marinades. What I also like is that it's made from real smoke, which is pretty amazing when you look into how it's produced. If you enjoy barbecue flavours but can't use a smoker, I'd definitely recommend giving this a try.
