I read a recipe once where they used avocado to smoke bacon with. I believe from what I can remember they said it had a nice mild fruity flavor.

Here's a quote from an article in the LA Times concerning avocado wood smoking " There were some of the mysterious flavors I'd smelled outside, a slight herbal aroma and even a bit of creaminess, like a fine, mild cigar, and none of the charred tastes of a stronger wood like hickory." I'd post the link but can't.
