The other day I found some hickory chunks and some Jack Daniels Oak Barrel chips. I made what I now feel is a mistake by using both of them at the same time to cook some ribs.
The meat was so smoky flavored, I couldn't taste the rub and barely tasted the pork and I only used 2 very small chunks of the Hickory and a 2 handfuls of the oak scattered around.
I found a wood chart that someone had posted a link to and noticed that both Hickory and Oak are classified as being strong.
Which leads me to my question, what is your favorite choice of wood?
