House of Herbs: The Secret to Real American Barbecue
Do you dream of giving your dishes that characteristic smoky flavor of authentic Texas barbecues, but you don't have a smoker on hand? Look no further! With the House of Herbs brand and its famous liquid smoke, the magic of the American Pitmaster comes directly to your kitchen.
At Pop's America , we know that the secret to a successful marinade lies in the details. House of Herbs offers you the magic ingredient to transform any meat, sauce, or vegetable into a specialty worthy of the best steakhouses in the United States.
Hickory Liquid Smoke: Just one drop is enough!
The brand's flagship product is the famous Hickory Liquid Smoke (made from hickory wood, a wood highly prized in the Southern USA). Unlike chemical flavorings, real liquid smoke is obtained by condensing actual wood smoke, thus capturing all the essence of a campfire.
This little bottle is incredibly powerful. Here's how to use it to revolutionize your everyday meals:
- In your marinades: Simply add a few drops to your homemade barbecue sauce or to your marinade for beef, pork ribs or chicken before cooking.
- For slow-cooked dishes: It is the perfect ingredient in Chili con carne, Baked Beans or to enhance pulled pork by giving the illusion of very slow cooking over a wood fire.
- The secret touch of vegan dishes: This is the ultimate (and very trendy) trick to give a delicious "meaty" and smoky flavor to tofu, tempeh, seitan or grilled summer vegetables!

Use a light touch! House of Herbs Liquid Smoke is extremely concentrated. Always start by adding half a teaspoon (or just a few drops) to your mixtures, stir, taste, and then adjust as needed. One small bottle will last you a very long time.
Is liquid smoke vegan?
Yes, absolutely! Although it instantly evokes the taste of grilled meat or bacon, liquid smoke contains no animal-derived ingredients. It's also increasingly used in vegan cuisine to add depth to dishes.
