• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

With the Spicewine 2 weeks away, I was wondering if anyone had a good source for large quantities of wood chunks. I'm specifically looking for Hickory and fruit woods.

[FONT=Verdana,Helvetica,Arial]Smoke Wood[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana,Helvetica,Arial]The best smoke wood is free smoke wood! Check with local orchards, golf courses, and tree trimming services, especially after storms. Tell them that your hobby is barbecue and you're looking for a few split pieces of wood, and you're likely to get some for free.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Helvetica,Arial]If you have to purchase smoke wood, it's best to buy locally whenever possible because of the high cost of shipping.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Helvetica,Arial]Hickory and mesquite chunks are readily available at most hardware stores and home centers. Check Home Depot, Lowe's, Orchard Supply Hardware, Ace, True Value, and other such stores. Better grocery stores will often have these products, too.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Helvetica,Arial]Alder, apple, cherry, oak, and pecan can be purchased at specialty stores like Barbeques Galore and from suppliers such as Peoples Woods (800-729-5800), Fairlane Bar-B-Q Wood (816-761-1350) and Chigger Creek Products (888-826-0702). Guava can be mail-ordered from Guava Wood Farms in Hawaii. You can also find a number of other smoke wood suppliers listed on The Smoke Ring.[/FONT]

Good Luck! JD
 
Bring an empty truck when you pick up your Spicewine. Got a guy that has hickory for $50.00 a pickup load.

Does pecan grow in Mo?

If not, do you know of a good source?

It's the one wood that I really like to smoke with that doesn't grow around here at all.

Don't know about in MO, but it's all over here in my town.
