Wood chips??

[jennspen91]

Just bought a smoker today to attempt venison jerky. Wondering what flavor of wood chips are the best? And any other information for beginners would be great!
Thanks!

I'm on a hickory kick but that's just me.  I don't use chips, but pellets.  Pellets are the only way to go in my opinion.  I can smoke for around 8 hours on two cups of them.
