Once again I was forced to adapt a 14” Walmart Poulan bar to a small Stihl.

Drill an oiler hole in the bar edge. Dog hole is good to go.

Driver count is messed up tho. Poulan chain is 52. Needs to be 51. Normal Stihl is 50.

Cut with it anyway. Oiler works.

Good morning and Happy Monday!

If cooking (grilling) over a wood fire is there any noticeable difference in flavor between white oak and red oak?

@Hedgerow
@Hinerman

Anyone else?

Usually have hickory shag bark, that was soaking for more than 24 hrs, to put on half way thru the grilling for that flavor

Not really. I prefer white over red but just because I know it stinks so bad when it's wet. After the fire took all my smoker wood I had to make use of red oak because it's what I have the most of around here. Couldn't really taste a difference.

If they are good and dry and no bark, either can be used. I just prefer white oak because the smoke smells pleasant.
Dry, barkless hickory smells pretty good too. As does maple.. Not silver maple, but the harder varieties.

I agree with @Hedgerow thats Osage. Is that the stuff you were working on in the desert ?

It’s called Horse Apple though, Crab Apple is a different species.

That’s my preferred cooking/smoking wood but I am not the connoisseur or gourmand that most of these fellas are.

I’ve used it several times in the past..

And YES, to the no bark..

Just don’t let it go much past the 4 hr mark..

Or it’ll take *s-word over... like a skunk at the garden party... works great with pork though, as long as ya don’t get all carried away an *s-word.

Something bout pork and fruit wood..

I appreciate the offer but I have plenty Carl, maybe @Jetmd or @WKEND LUMBERJAK want it. I will be blowing thru there Thursday morning on my way to the airport to pickup my daughter. I could drop it off at @Jetmd ’s or @WKEND LUMBERJAK ’s homesteads on my way back if they want it.

I am going to be swinging thru Weston to check out that cigar shop so Leavenworth wouldn’t be to far out of my way.
