LarryR Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Doing my go to brisket this weekend, Coffee Cardamom and I'm thinking about using Dennis' coffee wood. Any thoughts/input from those who have used it on whether or not this might be a bit too much coffee flavor? I typically use red oak or pecan on this cook. Thanks in advance!

Syzygies Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Re: Coffee wood too much for Coffee Cardamom Brisket? I did a coffee and apple smoke brisket a few months ago, without reading the warning that coffee wood needs to burn down to ashes a bit to calm down. I instead used a smoke pot: 1 or 2 quart cast iron dutch oven, 3 1/8" holes in bottom anywhere, lid sealed with flour water paste. As usual for this approach the effect was mellow, not excessive.
