Judging from the smell, real honest to bueno,
cooked-fresh-in-rural-Mexico, Menudo is indeed made from overripe
roadkill ... at least that is exactly what it smells like on the way
past your nose to your lips.

That said, if you can ever get it past those lips ...

And that, my friend, is exactly the reason that God put the nose right
above the mouth.

So what kind of wood/smoke yields the best flavor?

Depends on the food. For salmon, I prefer hickory; for pork, apple; but
for beef, nothing,
nothing, NOTHING beats mesquite. SWMBO and I both enjoy venison with
either hickory or
mesquite.

We often end up putting whitetail venison on the gas grill after a soak in
State Fair Speedy Sauce... except the back strap and tenderloin that is!
