I have laurel oak, live oak, and some blackjack oak, but mostly(probably 90%) live oak in my wood pile. It's a good heavy long burning wood with a mild flavor for smoking(little salty, but not bad at all), but man is it hard to split. Guys up north have it easy with there wood from what I have heard and read. Theres a 35 ton log splitter for sale as well, but the guy is hem hawing around and I don't know if he really wants to sell it or not. He's been telling me since Monday it's 150 miles away and he's going to pick it up that night, but here I am Friday and he still hasn't even got pictures of it, let alone got it some where where I can go look at it. Or theres a few smaller ones that they want $850 for, the kicker is I can buy a brand new one of the same model for $950 at TSC. Don't really want to spend the money, but it might be cheaper than $100 for a load of wood that won't last but 3 or 4 smokes.
