I have seen a little discussion on the subject but not the answer to my question.
I was on the job today and smelled some sasafrass. So I kept a close eye out and found a couple sasafrass trees with the root still on. Actually I will only take it with the root on or leaves on. Just to make sure I have the right wood. Anyhow with root on a quick snap of the root will reveal a very strong distinct odor. The log has little of the perfume of the root.
So now with my question. I have a couple of pretty good size roots. Has anyone that has smoked with sasafrass wish they had added more chunks or just want the taste stronger. I was wondering if I should grab the root and try smoking with that. Unless there is a reason I shouldn't smoke with the root.
