I like Pecan best, Hickory second. Never tried any Cherry, but it sounds good.
Smoke time depends on size of roast or brisket and internal temps of roast/brisket. I love smoking Pork. Can't go wrong with Pork. There is an injection/marinade/basting sauce called Lud's. It was made in Hackberry till Rita hit, but is now made in Oberlin. See if you can find that up where you are. I inject with Lud's, rub with Grub Rub and smoke about 2 hours for a med. sized Pork roast, wrap with foil and cook another 2 to 3 hours. My cooking temps are around 225 to 250 deg. |

Pecan is great /Add a little bit of the black cherry to it (It is great for smoking).
Never heard of anyone using sweet gum . Will be pulling the MES out the shed as soon as its light enough to see, Smoking a brisket and putting some smoke on a ham. I smoke my brisket to 165° internal, wrap in foil w/ some beef broth and back on the smoker till 200° - 205° pull it from the smoker and let rest for at least one hour b4 slicing. Going to make burnt ends Out of this whole brisket. Butt is done the same way as a brisket except use apple juice in the foil w/ a butt. |

I work 2 weeks offshore.
I get home on Tuesday, Market Basket sales start on Wednesday. I buy a couple of everything on sale in the meat box and start smoking on Thurs. I need a day to prep the meat, then fill the pit/smoker on Thrus. I vacuum pack everything individually so when we want something to eat, we just pull a pack out of the freezer the night before to be ready to heat for lunch or supper. |
