If you have the chance to stock up, do it! Cherry is fast becoming all the rage that apple was a few years back.

Ditto on the white oak, I mix it with most everything these days. My folks took down a massive swamp white oak this past fall that was 6 - 7 foot in diameter. I laid in a pretty good supply of "stove chunks" that I've been using in my smoker.

I don't get the white oak deal, not much flavor to my tastes. Been using wild cherry almost exclusively for years now. Puts a dang good smoke on that's not real acidic like hickory or mullberry.

Haven't tried cherry yet. Two years ago I switched from apple and hickory to strictly pecan and haven't looked back.

I really like pecan with beef. One day last summer I was getting ready to grill some chuck eyes for dinner when I discovered that I was out of charcoal. I didn't feel like making a trip to the store so filled a chimney up with pecan lumps and burnt them down to coals and grilled my steaks over them. By far one of the best tasting steaks I've ever eaten. I've used pecan on pork butts too and they came out good.

MAN Red... thanks for the memories.
I sure do remember smoking out back with wild Cheri. She'd take a load every chance she got, swallow and come up smiling every time.
No, Cheri didn't have a clue, that's true, but she was fun in the dark, with a bottle of Annie Green Springs, on a hot humid midsummer night, with crackly rock powerhouse KAAY out of Little Rock playing on the car stereo.
Them was the days.

I am with the Burr headed one on this. Nothing compares to Pecan. It is in a league of it's own. Doesn't matter what kind of meat, if it is in my smoker, it is over pecan.

Those times and days mean more to me than ever. Can't say why exactly. I guess it's because now, at halftime of life, a guy realizes those times ain't coming back.
Wu... no, more like Clyde Clifford and sounds of Beeker Street (remember that show?) on "Mighty Ten Ninety K Double A Why".
I can still hear ZZ Top ("Heard it on the X"), Skynrd, Seger, Eagles, BTO, and more... cranking out of the southern night sky at 50,000 watts.
Them was the days!

Ok , you experts and pecan wood lovers. I have been steadily smoking salmon for the past few years. I always use half apple and half mesquite.I am willing to sub the mesquite with pecan as a trial run. What difference should I expect?

I have a wild cherry tree that has to go, it's about 20 feet tall, maybe 10-12" diameter. If one of you smokey pros wants it, I'll save the trunk for ya.

Apple and Pecan are all I use. You will love the Pecan Bubba. Mesquite is for grilling Ol man uses Cherry on his briskets, but I'm not a huge brisket fan so I don't smoke it up much.
