What I like about stick burners!!

[hardcookin]

I like it as a hobby b/c it's def more to do but I also would like to have an electric pellet smoker for those cooks overnight or when I don't have the time for sticks.

All my big smokes start at 4:30 am. Always done for supper.
I prefer that to overnights.

Another nice thing about stick burners is, you can actually burn sticks. You can gather windfall wood or maybe get some from a tree trimming job - I did that when my neighbor's maple was brought down and had smoking fuel for two years. Now I'm on the lookout for more.

Have 30-inch bow saw. I need to make a good set of sawbucks.

Absolutely! I know a guy that owns a tree service. I have plenty of oak and hickory on my place but I love pecan as well. When I need pecan, he always comes through.

Do you ever buy oak firewood and use it for fuel? I'm thinking why am I burning bought smoke wood especially if I wrap the meat up. I could use oak fire wood a lot cheaper but my problem is I haven't learned how to tell if it's really oak or not.

I cut my own oak on my land. I love using oak. Many times after wrapping what I am cooking I will bring in and put in oven till I get my IT
