Wood and Flavor If you're bonkers about BBQ, then you probably have a very definite opinion about its taste. And, for many, there's nothing like the taste from BBQ cooked over a wood fire. Sweet or smoky, fruity or herbal, each wood imparts its own unique flavor. So if you want to capture a taste that's really smokin', here's a handy guide to wood and its flavors.  HickorySweet to strong smoke flavor; good for pork, beef, ham, brisket and ribs. Mesquite A Texas favorite with a strong earthy flavor; good for beef, burgers, pork, poultry, vegetables and fish Pecan Lighter version of hickory, bacon-inspired flavor that is sweet and mild; good for beef, steak, poultry and game birds. Cherry Fruity smoke flavor and subtly sweet; good for beef, pork, lamb, burgers, poultry and ham. Alder Delicate smoke flavor and subtly sweet; good for poultry, fish, pork and small game birds. Oak The most versatile of the woods; heavy smoke flavor; good for beef, brisket, ribs, fish and heavy game. Apple Fruity smoke flavor and slightly sweet; good for poultry (turns skin dark brown), pork, game birds, lamb and ham.
