Default thank you and 1 more quick question

We have on our property - apple,oak,hickory,maple,mulberry and misc other
trees. Can we use the trimmings from those for smoke? are there ones to
avoid (toxic or something)? I may have alder trees. I don't know what they
are - but if they grow around here then we probably have some.

If I use maple wood to smoke stuff will it impart that maple flavor in bacon
or is that something different?

thanks again.

I'm currently downloading the bbq FAQ's

Apple, oak, hickory and maple --- most definitely. I'm not sure about
mulberry.

I may have alder trees.


Alder is great as well.

Something different. Maple provides a good flavor smoke that isn't as
"tangy" as hickory or oak.

Mulberry will work just fine.

Are you thinking of that maple syrup taste? Won't get that from the
smoke.

I have a whole lot of apple, and have not found something that doesn't
smoke well with it.

FWIW,


Wally

Dunno about mulberry, but apple and alder are excellent with poultry
and fish. Oak and hickory go well with beef and pork, as does maple.
