    Rubs for Chicken. To do or not to do... that is the question.

    cherry wood

    Cherry Wood is the way to go. To bad you get only a small load with a mature tree. Here in Charllote we have mostly flowering cherry. The trunks only grow to 10" or so. I am also looking for pear and apple. We had a drought this summer and cherrys are short lived trees so wood might be found.
