best wood for pulled pork???

mrgoblueguy · May 20, 2016

I just picked up some jack daniels chips today. Would they be good for a pork butt?

What smoker do you have?

Them chips will work for pp. I find any wood works with pp.

I use hickory, oak, & pecan on everything.

Mainly because it's cheap & available around here.

What kind of oak do you typically use? Theres plenty of oak around me but I haven't been very impressed with it. Maybe its the species of oak?

I use red oak.

Make sure it's seasoned & dry.
