I got (pecan) wood

[AWaters]

I noticed my posting status now says I "got wood". Awesome!

And ironic, in that I just went to Academy to stock up on charcoal (on sale) and ran into some Pecan mini logs. I get all the hickory, oak, and cherry that I need from family land, but pecan is a treasured rarity. So I snagged a couple bags and am looking forward to pork butt over pecan this weekend!

I scored a rick of Pecan this summer from a small family owned local orchard for $60. Nobody around here cuts down Pecan trees unless they die or are damaged by weather so I fell very fortunate. I love the taste of Pecan.

Congrats on the WOOD! I dont have wood but "on the way to being a chatty Farker."

:blah:

I like to use pecan on pork (other than butt) and bird for a kiss of smoke. Not always easy to find, so I stock up when I do find it.

Why not on a pork butt?

Why not on a pork butt?

I like a heavier smoke profile on butt (I use hickory).
