the best wood is whatever is available for free........what better way to define regional BBQ!

I use apple, hickory, oak, chestnut, and sassafras.

Ody...I love mesquite, don't get me wrong. But cooking a brisket, mesquite burns very hot and too much mesquite will overpower, imo.

I tend to use Hickory, and finish with a blend of Pecan and either Apple or Cherry wood. Fruit wood leaves a great finish, and Pecan is just love.

Hickory as a base with cherry or apple

pecan for poultry

Apple and hickory for pork

Using mesqiute is like eating carp 😉

When using Mesquite...I either use it as the main heat, not smoke, and add wet mesquite at the end for smoke. Or I use wet mesquite chips on a charcoal fire at intervals, so that the flavor doesn't overwhelm.
