I was curious if anyone can tell me the diiference btween Northern Hickory wood and regular hickory. Such as taste difference, (if there are any) how it is to smoke with, etc. Any information is helpful. Thanks.
I guess the best thing to do is burn a little in the fire pit and check it out… I know that I can usually tell if the smell is stronger or weaker… I did this with the Mulberry and found it quite close to cherry…There are definitely different types of hickory, I got a pick-up load last week from Canton, TX. It is stronger than what I had been using.
I have been buying Big Johns in a 2 cubic foot sack, approximately 50#. I had been paying about $10 a sack.
The wood I got in Canton was free. I have been busy chopping and making optimum sized chunks for my Stumps. Some of it was rotten so I chose not to smoke with it and burned it in the outdoor fireplace along with 10 years of tax documents. I did burn some in the house but the hickory smell was overwhelming.
Hey now!! Them's fightin' words!!People barbecue in the north? Glory be... :biggrin:
