Overview
Camerons HISC is a small bag of hickory smoking wood, sized at 0.73 lb, meant for stovetop smokers and smoker boxes rather than being a smoker appliance itself.
The fine, kiln dried wood format lights and smokes quickly on a stovetop burner or in a smoker box, a different use case from lump charcoal or wood chunks meant for long outdoor smokes. A 0.73 lb bag is a small quantity suited to indoor stovetop smoking rather than an all day outdoor cook.
- 100% hickory wood
- Fine cut for stovetop smokers
- 0.73 lb bag
- Kiln dried
Who it's for
Fits anyone using a stovetop smoker or smoker box who wants hickory flavored smoke without lighting an outdoor grill. Not sized for someone running a full size offset or pellet smoker through a long cook.
Strengths and trade-offs

Performance notes
