Grape is a nice wood to cook with..

I've used grape wood for turkey, works great. But never tried grapefruit wood.

what mark said.........

Paul Kirk, the KC Baron of BBQ, highly recommends it. I've never used any citrus for smoking. Years ago, my father gave me a cord of lemonwood for the fireplace. I had a sore throat all winter from burning it.

Are you saying Paul Kirk recommends grapefruit or grape woods?   

[Mark]

He recommends citrus wood for smoking and singles out grapefruit as a favorite. Grapevine is a whole different story. It is a strong smoke and I personally like it for smoking home-cured bacon.

Thanks, I'd never read that before. Learn something new everyday.

Googled wood for smoking and almost every article said grapefruit wood was an excellent mild wood for all meats and poultry.
