    What kind of wood is this

    Im thinking youve got butternut. Here’s pics from my field guide to trees. The tell tale sign, for me, is how the leaves grow directly across from each other and arent staggered.

    Camping with smoke!

    We (myself and 5 of my buddies) participate in Meatfest every year. Its a 3 day car camping trip. We roll out 2 WSM's and a kettle (and a caja china the year we did a suckling pig). They start smoking late Thursday night and dont stop until Sunday morning.

    what is the coldest temp you smoked at?

    New years eve here in connecticut. We had to light a kettle just to keep our beers from freezing over. Wind chill was in the negative teens. It was full carhartt gear.

    Hobbies other than smoking/cooking

    Add another woodworker to the mix. I mostly enjoy furniture building but recently have gotten into carving. Its mostly letters and very small reliefs but my end game would be a big green man carving. Hoping in the near future to do a Maloof lowback chair in walnut and curly maple.

    Spray in foam

    We've removed spray foam insulation a couple of different ways at work (commercial demolition). One being cutting lines in it with a sawzall and chiseling out the the chunks and the other is with a handheld router and a bowl bit. The router move is the fastest but youre limited on the depth.
