Yup, but only shag bark hickory, and apple is good too. When smoking
meat, I try for a 50-50 mix of SBHickory and Apple if I can scrounge
it up...

Buttonwood is OK but we are pretty hard pressed to find good smoking
wood here if it doesn't come in on a truck.
I end up cooking out 3 or 4 nights a week (more than that if you
include the oven that is outside too) so I don't really want to mess
with charcoal.
I try to keep the heat out of the house in the summer.
I have one of the old Sams stainless grills that I have restored a
couple times. I keep one burner bay with lava rock (the side I throw
charcoal in when I want it) and the other 2 have the white plates. I
throw wood chips on that.

That's not a bad idea.

Mind if I steal that? *:)

Oh help yourself, Captain. It may be his idea,, but it's my thread...
