Wood types

Former Member

I have seen several discussions about favorite wood for smoking, but never seen this particular discussion. I know I like using maple wood for ribs & bacon. It was just marked "maple". But is there a difference in the taste of different types of maple? I know of one person that uses red maple but has access to sugar maple. I have read that some people like red oak over white oak. So my question... is there a better maple variety to use... or a bad one?

I'm not sure I can tell the taste of most of the wide assortment of usable cooking woods,and am not sure most others can either.

Now strong,or bad,are more noticable.

Maple is pretty mild,so I'd guess you can use what you have.
