As a newbie I have only used Mesquite, Apple and Pecan.
The mesquite because I had it left over from an old cheap bullet type smoker that is gone for a while now. The Apple came with my CS and Pecan I ordered on the internet.
When I used the mesquite it was on a brisket (long smoke). There was a distinct bitter taste. I won't be using it again, at least not until I feel like ordering more and becoming more knowledgeable about the combos, etc.
I love my Apple wood and the Pecan is now my favorite. I want to try Peach because that is what Myron D. uses and I hope its good if a pro uses it.
I had to buy peach from three different vendors before I got some good wood. I also had to try peach becuase of MM on BBQ PM. I like to smoke ribs with peach. I sent some of my best peach to Q'n RN in his exchange box so we'll see what he thinks when he tries it.
Peach is very mild and Myron is a pork cook.His area is loaded with peach trees .
Since you are in central FL now,try any of the easy to acquire citrus wood.
Many find it is comparable.
CandySue also sells peach pellets,which can be picked up around the patio grilling stores.
