I finally got around to trying out my oak wood. I started with a trip to the lumber yard to confirm that I was cooking with white oak instead of red oak. For this test, I used a 1.5 pound piece of top round seasoned with olive oil, salt and pepper and 135IT. The wood burned beautifully in a foil boat. For such a small piece I used a 1.7oz piece of wood. It tasted great but maybe the mildest smoke flavor of anything I've smoked. Next time I'll double that and see what happens. A trip to Costco meat department this morning led me to their top round. It was US Prime in about a 5 pound piece at $4.99 per pound. I'm going to try that next time as family members like a leaner cut.
