Q: Hi Dr. BBQ,

 

Just wondering if quila sawdust would be suitable for smoking. I’ve done a few trials with different hardwoods, but have an unlimited supply of quila if it’s suitable.

 

Cheers,

 

Max

 

A: Hello Max:

 

I’ve never heard of quila and can’t find it through a Web search. Generally speaking, it would work:

 

    –If it is a fruit tree

 

    –If it is a hardwood, like oak

 

    –If is not a conifer, like pine

 

    –If it does not have obnoxious resins, like eucalyptus

 

The only way to really know is to give it a try and see what happens.
