Lowes and Home Depot both carry bags of hardwood chunks for smokers.

Chunks for smoking lasts longer.  

Lowes and Home Depot both carry bags of hardwood chunks for smokers.

Our local Lowes usually only carries chunks of mesquite, sometimes hickory. The fruitwoods available are usually in chip form.  I prefer chunks for both my gas and offset rigs.  But if the OP doesn't care if he uses chips or chunks then the big box stores should be fine.  I usually buy my chunks from Amazon as they have fruitwood and oak chunks.  So... i'll go ahead and say it, the species of hardwood and what form its used in, should be based on what protein (or veg) is being smoked and by which particular smoker will be used.

 

Just my humble greasy fingered opinion.

My Home Depot has fruit wood chunks, as well as Hickory and Mesquite.

Look for a bag of chips by Jack Daniels. Make from the old oak casks.  Great for pork and chicken.

I get all of mine from http://www.fruitawood.com/shop.html#!/Wood-Chips-Wood-Chunks-&-Wood-Splits/c/20346062/offset=0&sort=normal and I highly recommend them, quality stuff!  The wood sold at the stores tends to be kiln dried and burns up too fast.  These guys have perfectly seasoned wood so there's still some moisture within and you get a good proper smoke.  Many competition guys go there for their wood.

 

I have a Pit Barrel Cooker.

Thanks for all your responses. I think i am going to try Fruitwood.com but as of right now all applewood is out of stock

Chunks over chips - they last longer and you don't have to soak them pre-cook. Weber sells individual bags of all types of wood chunks. Hickory, Apple, mesquite, pecan, cherry, etc. You can find them online or I know my local Home Depot stocks them.

If youre in snj. Exit 45 off of 55s. Buck rd i think it is. Anyway head east. About 4 or so miles up the road is an apple orchard that sells apple tree firewood.

I have a bunch of cherry wood. Its split but not cured yet. 10$ for 15 pieces.
