What woods do you like to use for wild game.

Thu Jul 27, 2017 1:54 pm

I am wondering what woods people like to use for the different wild game that they cook. Finding info on Beef, Chicken, Pork is easy enough, but what do you guys use on your wild game? If you mix woods for specific things or use different woods on the same meat, let me know as well. Anything you use, your grandaddy uses etc, looking for ideas and options for everyone to try.

Venison (different for white tail, vs blacktail vs Muley?)
Elk
Moose
Bear
Cougar
Turkey
Grouse
Duck
Goose
Salmon
Trout
Bass
etc, etc...

Lets hear it folks!

For fish and fowl and cheese, apple or alder gives a nice light flavor smoke.
For game meats, and all jerky, if you want a bolder smoke flavor, hickory and mesquite get the job done.
