The farmer is collecting black hickory or some type of chestnut or wall nut. They say you can use the shells of smoking food, anyone ever heard and or tried such a thing? Curious.
Hey buddy, how have you been, long time no see.
I tried hickory nuts years ago for smoking but don't remember the results.
Pretty sure some folks use pecan hulls, and since pecan trees are a variety of hickory, maybe the hulls from other hickory varieties will work too. I wouldn't try them while still even slightly green.
Maybe a little test burn?
