post oak

Is post oak any count to use in smoking?

I believe post oak to be similar to what I know as white oak. White oak is fine for cooking with, red oak is even better.

If it's good enough for this man's BBQ in Lockhart, TX.....

In my opinion, it is the best wood there is for smoking beef, especially brisket.

The picture Vinnie posted is from Kreuz's which served me the best brisket I have yet tasted.

You will find that post oak produces an excellent smoke for any meat.

Its heat is easy to control, burns hot, and is consistent on a stick burner.

I use a pellet smoker now (FEC 100) and use actual split post oak to augment the smoke during the cook. I put it in there over the fire pot.

Chisolm Trail, Blacks, Smitty's, Kruez's, (the big 4 of Lockhart TX) all use post oak--so does Snow's.

I can not recommend post oak highly enough.
