Quila Sawdust Suitable for Smoking? Maybe

00

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.
