Apple or Mesquite
-
lkrfletcher i go with hickory for beef and venison. Apple for pork, fish and chicken. Apple would also be good for your veggies and nuts. Along with pecan as well. Fruit wood is pretty mild

Thanks. I’m thinking this next bag will be apple then. -
Go ahead and get both. The good thing about using the sawdust is that you can mix for the profile that you want. I have oak, hickory, mesquite, and cherry, and I mix them depending on what I’m cooking.

lkrfletcher First, got your almonds, I have taste tested them but have saved the majority for our livestream and they are excellent, thank you! Second, I always say Mesquite and Hickory are good for hearty meats like beef and pork but for things like chicken or fish, or non meat items I would go towards the fruit woods. I use a LOT of pecan chips/pellets. It is a nice compromise as it is much more mild than Hickory or Mesquite but not nearly as expensive as the Fruit Woods!

lkrfletcher i waited til they did a free shipping on the live cast. It still ended up being $12.99 for shipping but better than $45. It was right at the time of Mr Walton passing. I just considered it a small donation for their loss.

Apple is a must have. Haven’t used mesquite in forever. Been using a lot of alder the last few months. Just a nice wood taste without imparting a particular flavor. Also been mixing the alder with maple, cherry and apple depending on what’s being smoked. -

I’m all over it. -
twilliams Yreah unfortunately unless you are buying the 2 lb bags of sawdust/pellets there is an upcharge so while the standard shipping ($10.99 or whatever it is) the upcharge will still be there, which can be pretty expensive. It’s been a busy year at Walton’s filled with both good and bad things, we’ve faced a lot of challenges but are handling them (as best we can) and trying to come out stronger!
