Does anybody who lives works or plays in and around the greater Oklahoma City area want any free Pecan wood?
You see I have 2 very large Pecan trees in my back yard and they are constantly dropping limbs. They usually hang in the tree and dry out before they fall. I just had 2 limbs that broke in last winters ice storm finally fall to the ground and I really hate to see them go to waste by me putting them out the curb for the big trash day to pick up Like I did all the previous limbs from the ice storm.
So why don't I cut this manna from heaven up and use it in my smoker?????
I have used a small amount of it in my grill in times past and my wife declared she could not eat anything smoked with pecan wood as it repeated on her.... I therefore will not be using any of this wood that is literally falling out of the sky.
She does like Hickory, and she thinks she likes Applewood. She says she doesn't like mesquite. I don't think she will like any of the heavier tasting woods. Oh well.....
It's kinda ironic that I smoke in the shade of one of these big pecan trees but can't use any of it's wood to smoke with.
I will cut them up to a size that will fit the back of a pick up If you want to come and get them. Let me know if you are interested.
