Smoking with Orange Wood

Q: Would like to know if anyone has ever used the wood of dead orange trees for smoking meat

A: Orange and lemon wood are both great flavored woods. When you say "dead" I am not sure how long you are talking.. most woods work best if they are cut up and seasoned for at least 6 months prior to using and not more than about 2 years.

Orange is known to be a fairly mild wood with a light fruity flavor and would be great for beef, poultry and pork.

I would test it on a less expensive meat like chicken until you discover whether you like it or not.
