Barbecue Woods Poll Results

I have not updated this in a while.. this was current as of last November or December 2004.

Finally the barbecue woods poll results are in... we have 47 states represented and 10 different kinds of wood. An "X" marks the daddy of all woods for that state except when two or more different woods tied and in that case I marked all of them.

This is how it broke down nationwide:

Hickory
Mesquite
Apple
Oak
Pecan
Cherry
Alder
Maple
Walnut
Birch
30.06%
22.02%
13.69%
11.01%
7.44%
7.14%
4.17%
2.68%
0.89%
0.89%

 

And here it is broken down by state:

US State
Alder
Apple
Birch
Cherry
Hickory
Maple
Mesquite
Oak
Pecan
Walnut
Alabama

Got a Question? Shoot it to me using my "speedy" form below:

Note:Due to the thousands of emails that I receive there is no possible way for me to answer all of them. I do try very hard to answer as many as possible but sometimes it can take several days. If you have an urgent question,you may get better results by posting it at the forum. Some of these will also be answered on the blog from time to time and if that happens I will be sure to keep all names, places, etc. private.
