Q: I have some pecan I would like to smoke with, how long do you let it "season" b4 using it?
A: Pecan is an excellent wood.. I like to let any wood season for a minimum of 6 months in the dry before using. This will still give you a lot of flavor while decreasing the creosote in the smoker.
My son has severe exotic nut allergies. If pecanwood smoked, do they really use nuts?
