Lapsang souchong it´s one of my favourites. We start loving tea when we first tried Lapsang souchong. [Moderator edited]

I think Lapsang Souchong is the kind of tea that often results in strong reactions...most people seem to either love it or hate it...I'm one of the ones that love it

Pretty much sums it up in a nutshell. It's not for everyone, but those of us that drink it, love it. So I understand why some people dislike it, but I'm kinda crazy for it myself.

A lapsang souchong can be a beautiful tea if you find the right kind. It surely should have that smoky taste. And a good on comes at a price like Yin Jun Mei Lapsang Souchong. May be my most favored black tea. Now if you want a real strong BBQ flavor try Wei Shan Mao Jian a yellow tea, delicate in its own way.

Has anyone tried seasoning meat with LS?

Sounds delicious. A quick google search returns recipes for chicken or other meat with mushrooms, bell peppers, and many other tasty ingredients. Though I couldn't imagine that simply grilling the meat over a wood fire would taste much different.

I haven´t tried using lapsang souchong to cook with...I often cook with a wood fire though

Also I´ve marinated chicken in brewed green tea(just inexpensive gunpowder green) , herbs and oil, grilled it over the wood fire and brushed with honey...that was delicious
