    Mahogany

    Found some mahogany logs yesterday and was curious to know if they would burn clean. It seems to me that mahogany is a hardwood and it produces at nut like seed pod. Anyone know? Thanks Tom King

    Finding Wood in SW Florida

    Greeting to all, I live in Ft Myers, FL and have a Klose pit with 20x20 offset firebox. I usually burn lump charcoal/split logs. I have been buying the logs from my local Publix but they get expensive quick. I was hoping someone on the forum lives in my part of the country and could offer...
