I am going to use the preburn to coals method.
I have property that I can go cut Mesquite. If I cut a combo of dead fall and green, put that in a burn barrel and burn to coals for the pit, will it work? Dead fall to start fire, green added to top.
Also if I cut green Mesquite(no splitting) and stack, let sit for 6 months, is it dry enough or should I split it?
I know in the fire place at our ranch we start fire with dead fall and have the green cuts on top, then add green wood as you need heat. Can the same principal apply to cooking?
Thx
