Smoked Flavours Liquid Smoke<\/h3>\n

Smoking is one of the oldest methods of food preservation, with a long history in the United States of America \u2013 Barbecue Showdown fans will know this. This time-honoured tradition is all about low \u2018n slow cooking, which can take anything from several hours up to an entire day to cook a hog! The ritual requires loads of patience, and for good reason; besides creating tender, fall-off-the-bone meat, smoking also imparts a characteristic flavour that can\u2019t be achieved otherwise \u2013 that is ’til Liquid Smoke was invented\u2026<\/p>\n

Originally created in The States, the popular product is now available in South Africa, thanks to Smoked Flavours.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This concentrated smoke-flavouring liquid has gained popularity for its convenience in adding a smoky flavour to foods without the need for extended smoking or barbecuing. It’s made by condensing and purifying the smoke produced during the wood burning process. Originally created in The States, the popular product is now available in South Africa, thanks to Smoked Flavours and their extended product range.<\/p>\n
