Made the mistake of buying a truck load of unsplit wood sight unseen. Some of it has about 1"-1 1/2" of dry rot question is can I use it as is or knock off the bad wood?

+1 on the pics. If it's possible to cut out the bad areas, the rest might be OK.

I've been cutting the bad areas off with a hatchet. I lit some of it and I didn't notice any off smell but was cutting off anyways. Live and learn I guess. Thanks guys.

Cut it out!
Get rid of that nasty stuff. Could be toxic. Don't take any chances that all will be OK. After all, it's a type of mold...

Get rid of the punky parts too. That's the soft, but not quite rotted part of the wood.
If the guy knew you were using it for BBQ, you should get your money back. I wouldn't bother with it personally.
