Over the past few years Tony and Ger Smith and their team at GOODWOOD Fuel based at 24 North Strand, Drogheda have been in the vanguard of a revolution in the way we think about fuel.
Firewood is their business but their mission is about much more than simply keeping us warm. Their products will also tickle your taste buds and excite your sense of smell.
As an added bonus all of their products are sustainably sourced from suppliers with impeccable green philosophies and practises.
During cold weather GOODWOOD supply a variety of kiln dried wood for burning in grates and stoves. They’ve got oak, beech, ash, birch, maple, hornbeam and olive wood and each variety has its own unique aroma and heat characteristics.
At this time of the year we all look forward to better times ahead, winter is over, the weather is getting warmer and we’re all hoping for a good summer.
This year especially, we are looking forward to long summer evenings when we can welcome family and friends round to our homes once again to catch up, enjoy cold drinks and hot food in the garden.
Yes, barbecue season is upon us and this year al fresco dining will be top of everyone’s entertainment plans.
Many people have spent lockdown working on their gardens and patios and now is the time to think about outdoor cooking equipment and fuel.
Cooking over flames is in our DNA but we have moved on from the days of hanging meat and vegetables over a bonfire until they are cooked.
Nowadays we can hold outdoor celebrations with style and sophistication and once again GOODWOOD can supply everything you need.
They stock a range of quality cooking appliances, to call them barbies doesn’t do them justice. GOODWOOD are now agents for the famous and fabulously stylish Morse Forno outdoor cooking ovens and Kamado Bono Grill and all of the accessories you could ever wish for.
GOODWOOD stock an exciting range of exotic cooking fuels each giving off their own fragrance when burnt adding flavour to your food and ambience to your party.
Imagine the scent from charcoals such as Cuban Marabu, black wattle from South Africa, orange olive or ash wafting across your garden in the warm summer evenings to come.
Imagine what this charcoal is doing to the food sizzling on your grill. More bubbles anyone?
