Full Fledged Farker
I'm going to be purchasing an Old Country Over/under in the near future.
I've never ran a stick burner, and the only knowledge I have of them is stuff that I've been reading on the internet.
I know I'm going to have a ton of questions for you all, so I thought I'd start with a few:
Is it ok to burn wood with bark on or could that produce a bitter smoke?
Is it ok to add unlit splits during a cook or should I burn them down to coals before adding so I don't get more than thin blue smoke?
I have a ton of wild cherry wood that I've cut and split last winter, can I use it next year after it's seasoned? I've heard wild cherry can also produce a bitter smoke, but I've used it in my kettle with no problem.
Again, I'm sure I'm going to have lots more questions, I've never studied up on any thing that has more contradictions than Bbq it seems.
Thanks for helping a newbie out!
