This may be a shock to you, but he places the blackwood On the coals.

Neighbour did a brisket yesterday...nothing new, he does one twice a
month
but this one was different..... This one had a very sweet smoky favour
to
it, much more then the usual hickory smokyness. I asked him what he did
different and he tosses me a dark brown cube about an inch and a half on
all
sides. Being a bagpiper, i knew this was african blackwood right away
since
both my sets of pipes are made of it. This type of wood is very hard,
very
dense and very oily but it gave a flavour that was to die for. I take
it,
because of this, very little is needed.

And, just "how" did you smoke that cube, again? Hmmmm??? ;-)
