I live in Edmonton, Alberta, and I can't find any wood for my model 55. Just those bags of sawdust at the local hardware. If anyone has info on where I can get some nice chunks of cherry or apple let me know. Thanks. By the way, I love my 55. It's serious fun.

Mountain man,

Here is a place:

You can also run a search in Google for certain woods that meet your fancy. Good luck....

Doesn't Cookshack sell those big boxes of wood chunks they give away free with a smoker purchase?

Here's the link:

Someone on the forum, not long ago, was offering wood for the cost of shipping- pecan or oak I believe. Might want to look over the last couple weeks of posts.

Here, go to this link and scroll to the second post from the bottom. Maybe you can strike up a deal.

Thanks for the input .I'll check all avenues. My biggest concern is shipping.I can't find any Canadian distributors of wood chunks.

I s'pose all y'all got up there is conifers, huh?

Yup, that's all we're good fer, is conifer.

Is there an agricultural issue with importin wood?

No agri issue, a financial issue. A box of wood @ $20 US, plus freightplus exchange rate=$42 Canadian. I guess I'll have to make a trip south of the border to pick up some decent wood.

Click on the link 5 posts up. There's a guy willing to give away pecan (I believe) for the price of shipping.

Geez, they have to have a Wal-Mart there.. they have been everyplace I've been, including Mexico. WM sells chunks of wood in bags. That's where I get most of the 'diferent' woods I use.. when I'm not using oak.

i would love to get my hands on some apple chunks. i been using pellets. good stuff, but dont last long. one of my customers just chopped down a pecan tree a immense proprotions, supposedly, i am gonna get a big chunk of it. man, i sure would love to chop it and sell it....
i just got my shipment of mesquite. i buy 50 lb box, for 25 bucks, no shipping fee.
but this particular batch, is full of bugs! not something i want in my restaurant. good thing, it never came inside. we chop it outside. crazy looking critters, kinda like a cross between a cockroach, and a cricket, i dont know it they have stingers, and i aint gonna find out, i goto town with the hammer and hatchet.

How about a Home Depot or Lowes?
