I have bought/made/salvaged all kinds of wood chips for my BBQ.
Hickory and sugar maple are my ol' faithfulls, but apple and alder
work nice too.
Now, a lady friend of mine (out West) swears up and down that oak
works really well.
I can't imagine. Oak? That sour smelling stuff?
Don't like cherry. Tried it...not good. (I love the wood itself, and
always have lots of cherry shavings and chips...too bad.)

What else should I try?

r

Beech is good, Manuka (you probably don't get THAT where you are), Gum
(eucalyptus saligna, e. botryoides) works well, for fish anyhow.
I have a bag of White Ash shavings that I keep for the purpose.

Wish I could lay my hands on some Hickory shavings.
