Apple Chunks

[azgramps]

Hey all, I am heading up to our Bass Pro Shop and saw they had Apple wood Chunks and was wondering how Apple does for pork and chicken? Is it a good flavor, what does it taste like (and I swear if you say Apples I am gonna hunt you down and make Sausage out of ya)

Thanks,

hey SV buddy, apple goes real well with pork, I use it when I do bacon- mixed with some hickory. I Do try and keep it on hand at all times, since your making the trip to the Big city make sure you stock up-home depot and wally have apple also. (sometimes). by the way it kinda tastes a lil like well                      chicken.

Apple goes good with fowl for sure. I would say for pork as well because you can buy apple smoked bacon.
I'm actually going to raise a couple oinkers so I can make my own bacon.

Apple is very good. I have got to where I throw some in with all wood. I haven't tried it with orange yet but will.

 Apple goes great with pork and chicken.  It has a fairly mild flavor.  Give it a shot, I don't think you can go wrong.

I do the same - pork and chicken. I alternate apple and cherry for my smokes for pork and poultry and really like the results.
