Box elder trees any good?

[veener88]

Just wondering when I was going though my wood pile I came across a few Box elder cuts. From looking at the tree it is part of the Maple family. I am just wondering if this tree is any good for smoking. Thanks

Don't know about the "Box elder"......had an ice storm....cut up a lot of Red-bud....would like to add that to what ifs for smoking

Don't know about the box elder, but I've heard red bud is good. There are several sources on the net that sell it.
