Totally different smoke even though from the same plant. Does an apple taste like applewood? The charcoal I use is mostly oak and has little taste (Kingsford Competition). Also, oak means different things to different people. An oak tree in TX looks nothing like an oak tree in MA and the smoke is much different between the two oaks as well. Use the oak up here, and your food will taste like a fire pit. Oak in TX is much more mild tasting.

I went looking for acorns yesterday but there was too much snow on the ground and my dog was giving me "it's cold out" eyes.
