i could use some help , guys. there's a ton of threads about people's fav woods. fun to read but too subjective to be of much help.
i mean, there's a bunch that actually like mesquite.
i really want a strong smoke taste, without bitterness. speaking just for myself, mesquite is too assertive, but fruit woods are too mild. my best results have com from mixed hardwoods.
i just ordered hickory pellets as i read they are strong n good for bacons.
so, if you have some time, what i'd really like is a list of woods from strongest to mildest, please. right now i'm working with a pellet smoker, so mild woods that work for you may not work for me.
all i know so far is that cherry makes the most beautiful bark but tastes like cured meat instead of smoke, mesquite is icky n i get the best results from some brands of mixed hardwoods.
i'll use your suggestions to buy pellets.
i see i wrote ''if woods'' in the heading but i can't seem to edit it. sorry.
