Olive Branches?

[daddyzaring]

Has anyone ever used olive branches to smoke with? I seen some at a near by BBQ Supply store, and was kind of wondering how it would taste to smoke with them?

Now I use and buy olive wood alot and it is a light wood but with a good flavor to it maybe like apple or other fruit woods. Now for the branches I don't know but I can't see why you couldn't use them. Heck give it a shot, for it can't hurt.

Russian olive is different from Olive. Totally different plant families.
