Apple Wood

A co worker cut down an apple tree out of his yard. Is it OK to use the roots for smoking meat?

"In the 1940s and  1950S ,one of ther most famous barbeque restaurants in California, Moores Meat Pitt in Monrovia Caliufornia, used orange tree roots  exclusively in their barbequeing process.

I'm not sure how you would treat/prepare the roots, though.
