Please tell me those chunks are the aftermath of someone using this wood for Furniture??
If not someone just chunked up a boat load of money.. -
hello, the black cherry is just fire wood actually which i cut and split , took some chunks from it.....its barkless (but the bark is flakey, like burnt corn flakes) black cherry...........so i'm guessing it should be good then.....wasn't sure as cherry has a very distinct smell if ya were too break a brach off and smell it didn't know what the actually wood was like

Eggbert,
It is great to smoke with. Very subtle. Distinctive aroma, but not overpowering. -
Some folk have availability to different smoke-woods :( .
I think Black Cherry is a bit sot after.
I have some “wild” cherry here and love the way it smokes….Can’t say that it’s black, but it’s cherry and is wonderful .
