Bought a new gas smoker at walmart, and was hoping for some good recipes. And what are some good woods to use for smoke. Hickory, apple, mesquite or ?

There are some fine recipes posted earlier in the year on Jerky ,sausage making etc. also any hard wood or fruit wood would do . Its all a matter of personal taste and what you have on hand. Be sure to soak the chips at least a half an hour, or mix your sawdust with enough water to moisten. Any wood or dust that is too dry will impart a harsh smokey flavor instead of mellow one. Good Luck and save some for us.

Thanks Jeseyhunter for the info. I am excited to try it out.

Ya I got one for you good budy, take sum fresh shot pig that we get this weekend and put it in there.

I don' t have any recipes, but I do have a piece of advice. NEVER smoke a duck! I smoked one once...the smokey flavor gets trapped in the fat....it was terrible...I never waste food, but the dogs ate well that night!
