All folks with any liquid smoke experience, I'd like to hear about it.

My bottle says Hickory. It's brand new... second bottle of my
lifetime. I use it in terms of drops - a little goes a long way.

There are basically two main brands nationally, Wrights and Colgin.

I have used both, The Colgin mesquite is rather nice in small doses, but
their apple liquid smoke is my all time favorite.

http://www.colgin.com/

Now I see they have pecan too, YES!!!!

Here's a product that looks interesting:

Might have to snag some as I like a few drops of smoke with
worcestershire sauce when marinating a steak.

Yes. But, Wright's seems to be the originator and standard bearer for
the stuff. I've also heard it mentioned on ChefSteps and other cooking
shows (Mind of a Chef?).

I recall having a bottle that was practically fossilized. Thick as
molasses and bitter as all get out. This was yrs ago, back when I
foolishly trusted everything on the grocer's shelf. Not really sure
where it came from, so I tossed it.

Yes. Amazon has several brands, each brand having several wood flavor
options. Wrights even has a 3 bottle offering with 3 different wood
flavorings.

Great information, I believe I'll order some of their worcester as well
as the Colgin pecan smoke.

I have used the stuff for years. My favorite brand is whatever is the cheapest at the time I need a bottle.

Da Hawaiians must use more liquid smoke than any state in the union - it's used for homemade kalua pig. I've never heard of sous vide kalua pig but who has? I have made shoyu pork in a rice cooker on the warm setting. I left it in the water bath for a couple of days but that hardly seemed worth the effort.

I add a few drops to tuna salad to make smoked ahi spread. It's great stuff - just don't tell anybody how you made it. I saw smoked ahi spread in the market recently - you can bet they ain't telling anybody how they make it either. I used to buy real smoked ahi spread and it's awful good but the guy stopped making it so that's how that goes.

My idea is that you could use liquid smoke to make tea smoked chicken using a mix of rice, brown sugar, and liquid smoke. I've never tried it - yet.

We have a bottle of hickory and it is a few years old. Use it with care
as it is very easy to add too much and go from good to nasty.
Never tried the other flavors and considering how long this bottle is
lasting, probably never will.

What do you cook in it and what creates the smoke?

It's never tasted like, whatever you added it to, was actually smoked.
But, If you like lot's of bottled barbecue sauces you'll probably like
it.

I've decided I don't like food with a strong smoky flavor so maybe
that's why. Just a few drops and it has enough smoke for me.

Pecan does sound interesting. Is Colgin's a grocery store, specialty
store or internet purchase for you?

It's an off the shelf mainstream Kroger store item for me.

Safeway tends to stock Wrights.

No Krogers near me, so it will be an internet buy if I am ever
motivated to have a choice of smoke flavors in the cupboard. Thanks.

Watch the internet maven chime in to tell me that FoodsCo is Kroger.
It's glaringly apparent he doesn't know how to read. It's not Kroger.
It's not even Kroger in disguise like Von's is Safeway with another
name. It's a nasty store and I won't bag my own groceries. So there
you go.
