apple for me. I've tried cherry and hickory, but can't seem to get a good flavor of of them..fresh dried wood too, not store bought. Can't miss with apple though. Did some chicken with apricot, and that turned out pretty good too.

Hickory, while great is too strong for everything. Apple is great but not on beef. The best one wood would be pecan. It's a little light on beef but it works.

If I have to pick one its gonna be Apple or Pear. They are the mildest that I have tried, although I hear that Alder is even milder.
The reason being that you can add more wood to get more smoke flavor. You can't take it away if your wood is too strong for the meat in question.

Cherry then hickory then apple
Pine is my favorite...:loco:
But seriously, as much as I love Hickory, it's also very strong, so not as versatile as other woods. These days, I'm using a lot of pecan, so I voted for that. Oak would be my second choice.

Pecan for me. It's the most versatile and not too strong. It helps having a pecan tree that provides me an endless supply. :grin:
i voted pecan because i've got a pile of it that my son brought me. Also a fan of hickory & peach because it was readily available to me in the past.
Would love to have a big ole pile of cherry so i could have voted cherry.
Basically i'm a cheap farker who likes free wood.

I think Hickory is best for beef. For poultry and pork I prefer Pecan

You mean your local grocery stores or hardware stores don't sell those small bundles for fireplaces? Sometimes you can get a deal and they are usually oak

I'm not sure why so many people voted hickory for all around use. Hickory is so easy to over power foods if you are not careful. To me all around use is something not so strong and not too weak.....just in between.
