Orange wood

[Ernest]

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

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.

Cheach and Chong wood suppliers. Nice. Huskee

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.

hey.. eugenek Let us know how that worked for ya

[Jerod Broussard]

Maybe you got a hybrid. Cherrange species.

I ordered a pile of sweet cherry chunks, and they have the same aroma as peach wood, oddly enough. It is very unique, very pleasant. Either that, or last time I ordered peach they sent me cherry (or this time they sent me peach again).

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
