Choosing

Which wood for what

Apple

Mild and faintly sweet. Very forgiving — hard to oversmoke with it.

Pork · Chicken · Ham · Cheese

Cherry

Mild, slightly sweet, and it colours the bark a deep mahogany red.

Poultry · Pork · Beef · Salmon

Maple

Gentle and a touch sweet. Plays well blended with a stronger wood.

Poultry · Pork · Vegetables

Beech

Clean and nutty without much sweetness. A quiet all-rounder.

Poultry · Fish · Sausage

Red Oak

The classic middle-of-the-road smoke. Steady heat, no sharp edges.

Brisket · Beef ribs · Lamb · Sausage

White Oak

Dense and long-burning with a clean smoke. Built for all-day cooks.

Brisket · Ribs · Big cuts

Hickory

Strong and bacon-like. Use it on its own with a light hand, or cut it with fruit wood.

Pork shoulder · Ribs · Brisket

Guelph questions

Good to know

Do you supply firewood to Guelph?
Yes. Guelph is about 35 minutes east from our stand at 1960 Snyders Road East, Petersburg, Ontario N0B 2H0. Pick up 7 days a week, or ask about delivery on larger orders.
Is the wood properly seasoned?
Yes. All of the wood for smokers, grills and pizza ovens is well seasoned and stored indoors through the winter and spring. Dry wood lights faster, burns cleaner and gives you thin blue smoke instead of a bitter white cloud.
What does it cost?
12" smoking wood splits are $40 a bag, thicker wrist-size splits are $45 a bag, 3"–4" chunks are $17 a bag, 5"–6" pizza oven splits are $20 a bag and bagged hardwood firewood is $15 a bag. Face cords are priced on request.
How do I pay?
Cash, and e-transfer on request.
Do you deliver?
Delivery is an option on larger orders. Call or text Matt at 519-588-1164 for a quote — the price depends on the size of the order and how far out you are.
