Persimmon wood for smoking?

Former Member

Ok, I know it's sometimes used but what are it's characteristics? I'm afraid of smoking a good piece of meat and getting the 'ol green persimmon pucker when I bite into it! I have a lot of it on my property and am wondering how it affects flavor.

Easy process is to buy a $2 yardbird,and then you'll know for sure.

My guess is you'll be happy you tried it on something quick and move on.

Just be sure and let it dry out good before using it. It can take green fruit wood a few months to dry out well enough for use.
