When I was doing my initial research into the history of earth ovens, I read that in Ukraine, from 20,000 BC, people were using pits with hot coals, covered in ashes, and then they would wrap their food in leaves and set it on top of the coals, and cover it with earth. It was quite humbling to think how far back this method was used for every-day cooking. Imagine the earths beautiful, natural and untouched appearance way back then? Wow! I pondered this for a while. I had questions.

“What types of leaves were our ancient ancestors using? I wondered about the flavors they must have used in their food?Rick

Like, “What types of leaves were our ancient ancestors using? I wondered about the flavors they must have used in their food? I pictured how the leaves influenced the taste of say…fresh game following a successful hunt? How the moisture in the green leaves reacted to the heat, creating a steaming affect with a smoking affect? These unanswered questions drove me to delve deeper into my research.

I learned that many different, ancient, and even modern cultures used and continue to use many different herbs, greens, and other natural elements to enhance the flavor of their foods and to fuel their fires. This opened my eyes to the new flavor possibilities and the vast selection of natural and healthy cooking enhancers tried and proven by peoples and civilizations from all corners of the earth. We’ve tried to duplicate a few for you to enjoy.

Much like flavored hardwood chips can flavor and enhance foods in the cooking/smoking process, so also can herbs, fruits, and vegetables. I had always played it safe by sticking to “prepared” rub blends and “paired woods” for smoke and fuel, but Earth Oven Smoke Packs offer a completely new dimension in cooking altogether.

Having a decent knowledge base of what herbs go with what foods, and a knack for mixing already proven spices, we ventured out with some fresh and exciting flavor enhancers, with the caveat of making them ‘easy to use.’ Using Earth Oven Smoke Packs is like “Eating flavors that you would find in a 5-star restaurant,” or some “Revered, handed-down secret recipe.”

The unique flavors created are incredible, and they weren’t created just by accident. The Earth Oven crew spent days testing and trying each special flavor, using multiple combinations of quality herbs, vegetables, and spices, collectively critiqued and documented, using every kind of meat and vegetable imagined, under many different cooking/smoking/heating conditions. When one combination failed, we tried another, over-and-over, until we reached a unanimous approval of, “These flavors are the best ever!” Each trial was an experience we won’t soon forget.

In the end we have our Ancestors to thank. It was they who passed on this ancient cooking tradition, and we were fortunate to have added some other amazing discoveries along the way, such as… figuring out a great way to increase smoke! By using a unique bi-hardwood and grain mix to our recipe we were able to really boost the natural smoke output creating a great “smoke bomb” effect!

All of our herbs and spices are fresh and all natural!

And, using Earth Oven Smoke Packs is so easy! Simply, peel the lid back, discard the lid and the oxygen pack inside, empty the “Smoke Pack” contents onto your hot coals or grill top.

The fresh, special herb-spice-steam-and-hardwood smoke cups are sure to intensify your Earth Oven and BBQ experience! Take advantage of our research and put your own nose and taste buds to the test!
