Northern Yankee in southern lands

[marasdad]

That's right cats and kittens, I'm what North Carolina locals call a damn Yankee. Now, after many years of grilling I'm looking to expand my talents into smoking. One thing about me is i will test the waters with my pinky toe, then i jump in 'whole hog'. I had a question for some of our seasoned smokers about the types of wood they use. Has anyone soaked their wood in wines like Cabernet or Chardonnay? I would like to get into something did with my smoking, just to keep my guests guessing as to what makes my stuff just soooo damn good.

Hope to gain a few good brothers in smoke.
Till then,
Brandon

Welcome to the site Brandon, and welcome to the smoking hobby.

I've never tried soaking wood in anything for flavor.  Let us know how that goes.
