I've been using Smokinlicious wood since about January and I really like it. I grabbed a big box of Hickory, Oak, and Cherry. It seems to burn a bit "dirty" for the first 15 minutes or so, but then it settles down to a nice, thin, clean smoke. I may try something else after this box is finished (which will be a while I'm sure), but I can't see much out there being better than Smokinlicious. Enjoy!!!
