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 Susie |

I'm not sure about mulberry. I may have alder trees. Alder is great as well. If I use maple wood to smoke stuff will it impart that maple flavor in bacon or is that something different? Something different. Maple provides a good flavor smoke that isn't as "tangy" as hickory or oak. |

reported to us: If I use maple wood to smoke stuff will it impart that maple flavor in bacon or is that something different? 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 "No one has ever had an idea in a dress suit." Sir Frederick G. Banting |
