Looking for Pecan wood in the east valley. Getting a smoker so want to stock up.

Looking forward to seeing responses you might get!  Should be alot of pecan wood available.

What about that grove that they chopped down on the north side of I-10 west of Picacho Peak?    Wondering if that is pecan?   If so, there's a gold mine of it there (acres and acres), if they are willing to let folks grab it.   Noticed it the last couple of times I drove to Tucson.....

Good luck in your search!

Ask Caldwell BBQ where they get their pecan wood from.

I have pecan trees but I use the wood from trimming myself.

Yes, that pecan Grove on the North side of the I-10 was cut down SW of Eloy, North of Picacho. Plus the other groves get trimmed/culled.

Convenient, but might be a bit more pricey than others - Berry Brothers off the 202 and Washington, right next to Le Girls - https://bbfw.com/pick-up-by-the-bag-1

Cheap and possibly even free, but not so convenient - Day Break Pecan Orchards, as everyone else mentioned. - 4539 E Phillips Rd, Eloy, AZ 85131

If you are smoking your meat unwrapped make sure you remove the bark from your wood. Otherwise you will get a slightly bitter pitchy taste to it.

Spatchcocked turkeys smoked with pecan.

I buy mine at Berry  Brothers.  When you drive in, to the left hand side they have a section where they have chunks of wood that is bagged in heavy duty plastic bags.  this is how I buy my smoking wood.  I found that adding a whole piece of firewood was too much at one time and it would raise the temperature too high.  I started cutting my wood down with a chop saw but when I saw they sell the same wood in chunks, bagged, in addition to logs, I tried the chunks and it works great for me.  They usually have at least 5 to 7 different kinds of wood.  I use a mixture of pecan and oak,.  the oak last longer in the fire.
