Knows what a fatty is.
OK, I am sure there have been many threads about preferred woods
Stick burner guys like, Would ya'll mind if we go there again and offer up
your experiences?
I started my smoking experience using chunks of hard wood and mixed in some briquettes.
Inexperience and lack of technique I worked myself to death feeding wood and chasing the temps and blue smoke.
I Settled in to mainly using briquettes and learned how to get long smokes and clean exhaust.
Feeding a few chunks of hard woods to get some flavor I tried to get a handle on what wood did what to the flavor.
But like most newbies between rubs and different woods I really got lost finding "the right wood" :lol: and true BBQ flavors.
Now that I have fire experience and technique I want to go back to using a majority of wood.
I definitely could taste Hickory when using that wood but other woods not so much.
From the research I do, Post Oak is the go to wood for beef, aka brisket and ribs.
That is one wood I never found or used.
I lucked into a lead on some post oak and the store also has other hard woods.
The place is not close and I want to make the trip worthwhile
So, I cook, poultry, beef, pork for the most part and want to get
A stockpile of splits to take advantage of my offset.
Thank you for the suggestions.
