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

This was a hard one for me to decide on. I use this brand of liquid smoke for jerky. It is my go to and I like the mesquite best but the hickory is also very tasty. I was nervous about ordering these since others mentioned the bottles arrived damaged and leaking. Liquid smoke is no joke and when it makes a mess it is VERY difficult to clean and get rid of the smell. But the value and availability here was something I couldn't ignore and so I gave it a shot. The package arrived just fine and all three bottles were very well bubble wrapped. There were no leaks. I will repeat this order again but will order just these in an order just in case these do end up leaking. I wouldn't want to ruin any other items in the order.

My order arrived on time as promised. The product gives a true smoked effect when I do not have time to start my charcoal cooker.

I read the reviews and was a bit worried about the spill that most spoke about. I opened the box and was pleased by the amount of packaging involved. However, I could smell the smoke. Uh oh. I carefully unwrapped the bottles. Only one leaked a tiny bit on the bubble wrap - the mesquite. Keep in mind the picture was up close to get an idea of how much. The actual area - well I could sit one of these bottles upright and cover it all easily. The paper towel picture is the amount I wiped off the mesquite botttle. It is a paper towel I got from Taco Bell for reference. So the amount I lost was very tiny. I also included a picture of the top of the mesquite bottle so you can see it is sealed. So, the leaking doesn't seem to be due to Amazon packaging. It does seem Wrights has taking what I would consider normal procedures on preventing leaking. All 3 bottles were on their sides and outside was freezing rain. I did check to see if the lids were on tight or could they be moved underneath the safety seal. Well, only the mesquite was not on as tightly as the other 2. So, I guess that resolves that. It was just loose enough to leak a little. I haven't tried cooking with them yet. However, I can say the smell from that tiny bit of leakage - it brought back many childhood memories of cookouts and smokers using mesquite. I was tempted to smell my clothes because that smoke lingered. So,I am going to say I am going to be super pleased by these bottles when I cook with them. The smell lingers even after being exposed to open air. It's not overpowering, but it is there. I'll try to post more when I use them.

Use this in my salmon brine for cold smoke. All the bottles came broke except for one. Barely any wrapping paper was used in box.

Glass bottles, all three! That was my main goal and the ingredients are ok generic "natural" listings but better than anything anywhere else that I've seen so far.

Always use Liquid Smoke this set is perfect so you can try different flavors I soak my meat and then I cook it indoors in an air fryer amazing stuff

Great Seller

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.
