free wood that is.........
i went to my g/f's granny's place and asked the landlord if he would mind if i trimmed his large pecan trees. he was just thrilled that i asked
since he is elderly and has a bad heart. i told him i would just get the stuff off the roof and clean out what needed to be done and that i would clean up any mess that i made.....the next day i took the old feller some pulled pork that i made with pecan.

I don't know where it came from, but my stepson uses it as an expression of wonder.

Did you use the dead wood to smoke or some of the fresh cut?  I thought it needed to be seasoned, still trying to learn.  Thanks

the 2 boxes on the left were dead and dry..........the rest will season by summer.

Because Pecan is so hard it takes a LONG time to season.  I had some that took two years to actually dry out.  I smoked with it the whole time.  Now as far as lighting it, it is defiantly harder to light when it is greener.  I use a weed burner to light my logs so it isn't so bad.

i cut all that into smaller chunks to help it dry out quicker.........i fit all of that into 5 crates afer cutting it down.
