There are several types of fall mushrooms. Chicken of the woods and hen of the woods are great!

The only types I know to pick are buttons. Never did quite get the hang of some of the others.

There are hen of the woods and chicken of the woods. The chicken is a little bigger and meatier than the hen. I have only had chicken of the woods and they are great. Only had them breaded and deep fried so cant tell ya about smoking them. I would cut it into sandwich size pieces and bread it and deep fry and have shroom sandwiches!! They are really good.
