Hurricane Sally came through Baldwin county Alabama and blew down thousands of live oaks and pecan trees. Long leaf pine also took a beating. Has anybody had experience smoking with live oak? There are piles of oak and pecan along the roads.

When you say "live" do you mean freshly cut? If so you don't want use fresh wood to smoke with. You're gonna want to season it. Meaning let it sit covered if possible so it can dry out. 6 months at a minimum.

Live oak is a species of white oak. Very common around here, great for bbq when seasoned. Pecan is a real treat. Grab some. Would not use the pine tho.

I have 18 huge old live oak trees in my yard. The limbs that fall out after a wind storm are great to smoke with once they have had some time to season. Pecan is such a mild smoke you'll enjoy smoking with it too. With that much available gather up all you can and start looking for a good stick burner.
