Planning on smoking a couple racks of ribs this afternoon, and my cut/prepared wood stock was dire. I cut logs in half and then split them with a hatchet if needed.

I’ve got apple and cherry in the box but I may use smaller pieces and add some hickory.

Split them down for the size I use, sometimes I’ll split one again if I’m mixing a few woods. I also put a C O H A or M with a marker on them since they’ll get mixed up in the milk crate. This should get me through the fall this year.

I went with cherry apple hickory for today.

I marked them since it really filled the milk crate


Great idea marking the wood like this if you're using a lot of species that are similar in appearance. I'm stealing this idea. Might give it a go with the letter punches I use on my woodworking projects. Thanks for the idea!
