Cherry wood- always brings the color


 
Nice looking chicken! Yes, cherry wood definitely brings nice color, but I wonder how it would fare in a blind taste test, compared to apple, or hickory or something? There are very few smoke recipes which call for straight cherry - it's usually added in with other woods.
 
Living in Michigan, I use a fair amount of cherry on its own and love the flavor profile on its own! Makes the neighborhood know something is happening at my house!
