Got a bite on an online classifieds ad for firewood! Got me some mesquite, and some pistachio. I pimped our site to the gentleman that let me take the skeet and stachio. He had a SWEET stick burner. The fire box was an old safe. Wanted to take a pic, but he wasn't around and I felt like I should ask permission. Hopefully, he'll join. The mesquite pounded my chainsaw. Then I hit some rock/compacted soil that was in the folds of the wood and my chain bit the dust. I also scored some pear from my neighbor who is getting ready to sell her house. The stachio and pear are more than seasoned. The skeet, was cut down last week and will need some months to season. Nothing better than mesquite for grilling up steak.
Tossed some stachio on the kettle to use on a chuck roast that I grilled indirect for smoke then straight up on the coals for med rare BEEF! The smoke was very nice. A notch or two below fig on the sweetness level.
The skeet.
The pear. This is the fruit bearing kind. It'll get cut up into chuck size along with the longer limbs.
Pistachio. There are actually several stachio farms a few hours away from here in NM. He dug these up and moved em to a new location, but they didn't seem to take. This stuff was DRY, but had some weight to it for smaller stuff. Very dense. Made for some nice smoke. First time ever using stachio and it's great stuff.
Some chunk stuff. That skeet saw dust...........well, it's gonna get used in the Lil Chief for some skeet jerky!:heh:
Here are a couple kilos of Q CONTRABAND! LOL..............:becky:
Burning off all the small stuff in the pit and having a COLDIE. It smelled reallllllllly nice.
Thanks for looking at my wood!:tape:
