I recently have tried using dry madrone wood in my BBQ smoker, (a KBQ) and can report some really good results.. Overall madrone burns very clean and hot, and creates great charcoal and very little ash (it has no bark).
I completed a "taste off" "burn off" comparing smoked chicken legs (salt only) from both madrone and oak.. The oak smelled better than the madrone as it burned, but the madrone legs tasted as good, if not better. A very clean mild "wood" smoke taste.
I encourage anyone out there with access to west coast madrone to give it a ty... smoke on!!!
