smoked meat... what do you like

[Greg Davenport]

Hi everyone... I was doing some jerky the other day... using green alder chips (from an alder tree...not fromt he store) and a tripod design... like I show in my book.

As I was working the process... I commented to someone how much I like the taste of Alder smoked meat. I have used hickory in the past... but really do prefer the Alder.

I'd like to hear what others use... I hope there are others out there that smoke their meet the old fashion way.

I like smoked meat and fish with all the variations of woods. I have to admit that after living up here for so long that I've sort of gotten used to using alder, and that it leads in preference - probably because it gets used so much.

I like to marinate venison or Elk in chokecherry juice with a little brown sugar
and use hickory. only because that's about
the only good smoking wood I can get up here.
I know it isn't the old fashion way but I
would put in second place commercial made
jerky made in Montana "HI Country" beef jerky Made in Lincoln. It's the only commercial stuff that I'll eat
