Wright's Liquid Smoke Applewood,Hickory & Mesquite (3 Pack) 3.5 oz

I used them even after it leaked a tad. It was very good on beef and chicken.

I had never tried this brand of liquid smoke before but now I might have to put it on automatic delivery. The three flavors are distinctive. The applewood is great added to vegetables to simulate a bacon flavor (I'm in the South where all vegetables have bacon in them). The mesquite is strong and goes will with Southwestern dishes. And I discovered a new trick. I add a shot of the hickory to potatoes when I bake them (in aluminum foil) and they come out with a subtle smoke flavor AND the peels are soft and flavorful too!

I can’t wait to try this in beef jerky recipes. It’s expensive, but doesn’t have a lot of excess ingredients. Just water and smoke flavor.I only gave 4 stars because like many have said, though it was well packed it did leak. It was packed well enough that it did not mess up any additional items in the box it was in, but my hands smelled like a bbq pit after removing the seals and tightening the lid. It didn’t seem to lose a noticeable amount of product and once cleaned up, the bottles seemed fine.

I could not find these in the stores, so I looked on Amazon and found all 3 favorite flavors together in one bundle at an affordable price. I lost a lot of my favorite seasonings while moving recently. I have gradually been building my collection back and was really happy to find these. I used the apple smoke in a chili-spaghetti-hamburger sauce. It added just the perfect balance to the sauce served over rice. These smoke flavors last almost forever since you only need a little to get good flavor. Unless I move again, I could be set for life. Wright’s is the brand I have always used.

I guess shipping 3 bottles of liquid smoke together doesn't work very well. The package arrived and on the outside it was a regular looking box. As soon as I broke the tape, the odor was horrific! All three bottles were wrapped in bubble wrap and those were inside another sealed plastic bag. HOWEVER, each of the bottles inside the bubble wrap leaked. ALL the lids were lose. I don't know for how long, but long enough to turn the bubble wrap brown and get the inside of the plastic bag wet. I don't know if it was the scent of all 3 mixed together that was painful or what but the whole mess went in the trash! If you are going to try these, I would suggest the individual bottles (although I won't be ordering any of them any time soon). At least if they come open, it is only one scent in the box. Plus, not knowing how long they had been open, and if they are supposed to be refrigerated after opening, I did not want to take any chances.

PRO - An excellent selection of authentic wood smoke flavorings for a great price vs. supermarkets.These flavorings are naturally extracted from real wood, they’re not artificial and contain no salt or sodium. Great in marinades, homemade barbecue sauces, and added to slow-cooker recipes.CON - Bottles are not very big.

I ordered this with one delivery as I just purchased the pork roast. I wanted to cook. It came a day late . Review after review says that the product leaked in transit, even though it was wrapped in bubble wrap and plastic. Exactly my experience. I’ve always purchased the single bottle at Safeway, but couldn’t find it anywhere the other day and turned to Amazon where I had to order three bottles. There was no leakage in the actual box, but quite a bit of leakage inside the plastic. Each bottle had normal plastic seal around the top, but when I took those off, one for sure, was not actually screwed on tight. If you’ve ever bought this before, you know how strong the smell is! I’ve now had to put them in Ziploc bags to put in my cupboard to try to mitigate the smell. Wish I could’ve bought just one and wish they hadn’t leaked. At least the bottles were still full. They’re kind of similar so I couldn’t tell which bottle leaked but I do remember one top not being on super tight. At least it didn’t leak into the box. I had never seen the applewood version which seems quite a bit more mild, and a touch of sweetness. I kind of combined to cook in my instant pot with my pulled pork. Now that I have three bottles, I will have to find more uses for it. Overall, this is the brand I like, but I would continue to hunt locally next time.

Friday gives you options for giving a flavor from stews to chili to barbecue. Excellent way to cheat. Don't own a smoker tried in mac and cheese. You'll be real. Surprised how good it gets
