Umm no-the only corncob I ever smoked was a pipe- but that was nearly 30 years ago!!

The only thing I smoke now is food!!

Hi Red -

I tried it about a year ago. Someone on another forum posted it. I can't say that I tasted anything except maybe a kind of "sweetness" but I only had 6 and mixed it with wood.

We did a thread on this to about a year ago I couldn't find it but maybe it was on the old forum? Maybe even on the Yahoo version of this forum. CRS!

Ditto! I used to love smoking those pipes... but I'm glad I gave it all up. Smokin' food is where it's at!
