Hey friends, does anyone have experience cooking with orange wood? We've got a fairly good supply here and I'd like to give it a try. Just wondering about any thoughts on smoke, taste, burn time, etc.

I found this online a while back. http://www.fruitawoodchunks.com/orangewood.html -
Thanks for the link. I visited the local firewood guy and picked up some orange for tonight's cook (they were out of apple and cherry). A Google search reveals similar comments about it being mild. Also found a post about some BBQ joint a few towns over using it exclusively for flavoring.Comment

You are welcome.
Lots of orange here in Florida. I am going to look for some and give it a tryComment

I don't see any fruit wood being over powering. I think I smoke with cherry more for the aroma it gives while smoking, than what it hits my palate with.

Someone either here in The Pit or on the main AR site commented on using orange wood and it being great. That's one I haven't personally tried yet. I'm thinking you'll be juuuust fine.Comment

M&M market here in Studio City uses a variety of woods in their weekend cooks, orange being one of them. Their chicken wings are a thing of simple beauty.Comment

The orange wood worked out fine, I can't say I noticed much of a difference from the other fruit woods. I used it with pecan during the first couple hours of the cook.Comment

I used it for the first time on Ribs two weeks ago. Just clean and mild smoke flavor.Comment
