Ingredients
Method
Techniques
Use kiln-dried wood of the same size from one company and store for each wood, and two identical offset smokers.
Run each pit at 250, smoky as at the start of a barbecue cook, with damper and air intake set the same.
Drain the tofu and put one piece in each smoker, post oak in one and hickory in the other, in the same position.
Smoke until there is good colour and smoke flavour, about two hours (could be one to three).
Remove, compare colour and smell, and put each in a labelled container.
First results: oak versus hickory by colour and smell
Empty the fireboxes and repeat with applewood and cherry at 250 for the same time.
