    Which wood for which meat

I have smoked 8 or 9 since I first posted this.  I think wild cherry is almost to strong for chicken but really good with ribs and fatties.  Tried walnut on a fattie and it was super strong bitter smoke so I think I will stay away from it.  Gonna try some...

    First brisket

    I am gonna smoke my first brisket next weekend, and I am looking for some general advise.  Should I marinade or just rub?  I was thinking just rub so I would have a baseline to go off of, but I am not real sure.  Any advise?  I need a good marinade recipe for future cooks too please.  Thank you
