Has anyone ever used Aspen for smoking?
I just had to cut down about 20 Trembling Aspens - (which is pretty much the only hardwood we have around here).
I know the native peoples in this area used it in place of alder for jerky. But the jerky I have tasted was really bitter. Perhaps that's more in the sytle of preparation than the wood. Comments?
