We start our briskets first using a pecan/cherry blend, when the butts go on we toss a little hickory into the mix.

I love using Oak for both. I wrap the pork a lot earlier than I do the brisket so that the pork won't be over smoked with a string smoke flavor. The brisket can handle it. I'm also in Texas where post oak is plentiful.

We use a pecan and cherry mix for both big meats (and are off-set cookers).
