Winner's Meats is a shop in our vicinity known for quality meat. In particular, many rave of their marinated pork chops. I know they contain soy sauce; beyond that, I don't know what is in the marinade but it is worth the trip. I've had recent fun playing with the Santa Maria, so I continued it yesterday on these chops. And I'll tell you what, I dropped-in a couple apple chunks from Fruita Wood and I am swept off my feet every time I use their wood. I've been doing this for 2 1/2 years and it wasn't until a few months ago when I placed my first order from them. I was clueless about the impact of quality wood until I read of your posts and tried it myself. Up to that point I used chunks from Amazon or box retailers; I still have some of that old wood but the next time we do a bon fire that old supply is out of a job. I've since learned from you that there are at least a couple other good suppliers of fresh, quality wood and, so, I am not suggesting that Fruita is better than those but, rather, this is a statement that fresh wood is exponentially better than that from box stores (unless you were to get very lucky, possibly). Within a minute of dropping these apple chunks I caught the aroma. Thank you for reading this lengthy post!
