    Venison meatballs and andouille

    All, sorry for the delayed response.  I was out of state a few days, trying to hunt pigs in GA.  No luck there but had a good time.  For the meatballs, I served them in a mango-habanero sauce so wanted to keep the meat closer to germane.  would've spiced more if they were without the sause...

    EXOTIC WOOD IDEAS

    If you happen to live in the tropics, none of the woods on that list, save acacia, are available.  If you find yourself over here, you can use mango as a replacement for apple on that list.  It has a mild, fruity flavor and works well on chicken and lighter meats.  Avocado also works very well. ...

    East Australian Wood for smoking?

    Gene, thanks for that. Right now there is a thunderstorm on the horizon. Hope it is not too severe, just good enough that a Mango tree or two are up rooted. I'l be on the lookout. Our Macadamia trees are bearing nuts except for one of them. Will have a look at the chain saw in some ten to...

    Smoking woods in Zambia

    I use mango, guava, passion fruit, dragon eye, logan, rambouton and others that I don't know the names in English, like I said, find a fruit stand and ask them, that's what I did, you'd be surprised what a couple pieces of smoked chicken will do to aid in your search for smoking wood. Gene

    GOSM - Whers the smoke?

    ...know why that is, maybe because it is propane. Here is what I did when I first started smoking, maybe it will help you, all I had was mango wood for smoke wood, plus our lump is made from mango so I didn't know what a 'smoke' flavor really was. I ordered some hickory and mesquite flavored...

    Smoking with Eucalyptus

    ...Back in the early '80s we burned a lot of Eucalyptus in our fireplaces and there weren't any health warning about using it. I've used mango wood, it is also used to make our local lump, after it is dry to smoke with and the Aussies tell me it's toxic, so who is to say who is right? I...

    GaryC from Illinois says hello!

    ...involves grilling, not smoking, with the exception of lechon, a whole young pig. There's not much data on the woods used. Do not use mango wood, as it contains irritants and some people are allergic to the resins from mango, which is related to poison ivy. Your best bet is to use coconut...

    Smoking woods in Zambia

    Howdy, I moved to Uganda almost 2 years ago and have been working through the same issue.  This place is just fresh out of hickory and mesquite.  Here is what I have found:  Mango works well.  It is not too strong, kinda' like apple.  It is good on chicken, OK for beef, but a bit weak.  Sugar...

    GaryC from Illinois says hello!

    Yeah, I don't want to say anyone is wrong, but when I got into smoking my first smoker was a WSM, after I bought it and read I needed to use smoke woods I found a dead mango tree on my in-laws property and cut it down. It was already dry, I cut it up on my chop saw and split it, in so doing I...

    GaryC from Illinois says hello!

    Hi Gary, Welcome to SMF, as you can see I live in the "tropics" only down under, I use mango wood all the time without any ill effects (I'm sooo allergic to poison ivy or oak all I have to do is see it and I get a rash), also the majority of our locally produced lump charcoal is mango, after I...

    mango wood

    I would have thought that it would be fine considering it is a fruit tree but Googling brought this up... Mango wood contains a sap that is located at the base of the stem, branches, and trunk. As a result, a recommendation is made never to burn mango wood as it emits a smoke that is full of...

    Mid week chicken with Jeff's rub 'n Silverwolf's sauce

    ...the first pic. It's easily the heaviest piece of furniture I ever bought. Hardwood- must be four inches thick. Good idea for getting some mango wood. I just got a tip from another thread.. I have a 3" gate valve on the top of my smoker for the exhaust. I'd read with a propane smoker you want...
