Hey, Folks! Just signed up. Live in Julian, NC. I was burning some pecan leaves yesterday and noticed how good the smoke smelled from downwind. Has anyone ever tried smoking with pecan leaves? Just curious.
I'm no expert, but I don't think any leaf out there would give you thin blue smoke that is preferred with smoking. I'd like to see what others say that have the years of experience.
I haven't burned a pile of leaves in a long time, but I do remember the thick smoke they produce.
I don't think that would be good to smoke food with, but it would keep the mosquito's away!

I just have this thing about the fragrance of burning leaves. Brings back some really fond memories! (No, I did not inhale!:)) Actually, it's like some primordial throwback to a simpler and relaxed time. Very similar to the feeling you get when you smell the Bar-Bee-Kew.
