Here's a picture of the Oak wood Staves before I unpacked my truck.
Damn this stuff smells awesome.
Gonna smoke some stuffed pork chops Sunday , I'll let you know what I think about Oak wine staves then.
I couldn't wait another day this stuff smelled so damn good I had to try it out. My wife had to work late shift tonight ,so I decided to thaw out a few pieces of chicken & a few Scalop's.
Threw them in the smoker at 300* for 35 minutes. DAMN !!!!!!!!
This meal was to die for ! Added rice and veggies and 2 to 9 good beer's and I was good to go!!!!!
This wood smells SSSSSOOOOOOOO ....damn good when it smoking.
I swear I'm in love with European wine soaked Oak staves for my flavor wood .Crap I didn't make enough tonight , this stuff was AWESOME !!!!! I will let you know how the pork chops turn out Sunday night. I'm going to glaze them in The Serrano pepper jelly recpt. that I got from GOT14U Damn all I want to do is eat today......LMFAO !!!!!!!
Thanks for all of your input on this wood.......I will keep you posted on how this ends up working out.
happy smoking.
Dan.
