As is often referenced on this forum, different woods are like different seasonings, and the amount used is like seasoning to taste. I love maple wood smoke on canadian bacon; it is light and sweet and I can almost taste the syrup. Hickory is stronger and sweet, and is what most people expect on ribs and butt. Cherry is darker and more subtle; it substitutes well for hickory but is noticeably different. If you are new to smoking, welcome to the right place. Advice from others is free, personal experience is hard-earned and valuable--take lots of notes!!
