Question:

Can you barbeque with wood instead of charcoal?

How do you do it?Will a giant log sustain the flame?Im wondering if it would be different for hamburgers than it would for Ribs.But I want to know can I just put dried wood under my barbeque where charcoal goes.I mean it works when camping doesnt it?

Answer:

Yepbut!!!! The smoke given off from green wood will have a detrimental effect on you and the foodIf its a metal plate rather than grill bars the effect is very differentDry aged untreated woodThe key to a good bbq is moisture free fuelBurn the wood until it very little smoke comes off it, and cook on the embers, and you cant go wrongIf you cant wait, wrap your food in aluminum foil and avoid the risk of yucky tasting food:)
