I Want to Smoke a Campfire

[cosmicfolklore]

So perhaps a discussion into what woods are respectable tender used in a proper campfire or wood stove. I used red oak seasoned two years and under a shed I built for a soap stone.

I considered pine not to be as good, but I used it if three seasons from being cut.

Campfires are so inefficient that whatever is somewhat dry is what I used. Pine is excellent in this setting because the concern for creosote is not a factor.

Hickory and any other type of meat smoking wood was savored and kept out of the stove.

I love putting a few pieces of pinon or wet cedar on a campfire. I picked up a cord of pinon driving home through Texas about 20 decades ago. I wish I had more.

Cornell and Diehl Mountain Camp. It is literally in the name. It always reminds me of camping when I smoke it.

I second that. I smoke a lot of Mountain Camp and it’s been noted that the inside of my car now smells like an old campfire because of it.

it's not hard to smell why it got that name. Really good blend that doesn't get enough attention in my opinion.

Straight Latakia is not as strongly flavored as, say Pirate Cake or Star of the East. I have (and smoked) all three. Straight lat is mellower than either blend.

Yeah seriously some lower percentage lat blends taste more of lat then some higher percentage ones.

I think only members here listen to my suggestions. Everyone else seems to ignore them. Which is good. There have been zero rushes on my recommended brands. I think it's cause I joke around and you kind of gotta spend a little more time dealing with me to realize I can be serious. Side note in my opinion Seriousness is like salt. You need it but too much is really bad for your blood pressure and over all health.

Agree with dark fire Kentucky, I've also always got the feelings of campfire with MB Scottish blend.

Gaslight is the best. I fell in love the first time I tried it and I am still in love. I just cracked open an 8 yr old swollen tin and it is to die for.

Either red virginia or a smooth aromatic for me.
