food-bev Woods for smoking ?

[SavinaRed]

I'm growing several fruit trees that I planted(grafted trees) last year. I have apple, nectarine, peach, lime, mandarin, lemon, plum and avocado. Can all of these be used for bbq/smoking or are there any of these that would not be recommended. Thanks !

If I may add pomegranate and orange.
Can it be used?
Thanx SavinaRed.

This is something I found online and have posted in my garage near where I keep my woods.
 

 

 

 

 

 
looks like it might be the same as the link hogleg posted just in a different format. Good info though
 
Cheers,

The problem as I see it is that you are in Modesto and I am in Maryland.  If you were closer I could help you get rid of some of your fruit wood by burning it in my smoker.

You can pretty much use any wood for smoking except for conifers.

I've heard Sycamore and Walnut are not good. For all the damage it does to crops, I can see why walnut isn't good. Not sure why Sycamore is not good though.

Generally any deciduous tree, with the exception of the Tamarack, is considered good smoke wood.
