Any one here ever used "Black Oak" firewood for smoking. If so, how was it and what did you cook using it?
 
I usually use black and white oak as my mix wood with fruit wood. I'll use 1 piece of oak to every 3 pieces of fruit wood.  In Eastern NC I know of a of resturant that uses strictly oak logs for cooking butts overnight producing a wonderful Eastern NC Q. Not sure which oak because there is a wide variety of oaks in the state.

 Oak is the # 1 wood used in most BBQ joints.
