Bear Mountain Cherry - 1 lb.

Cherry is one of the "sweeter" smoking woods. Not so much "sweet" as in sugar-sweet, but a fruityness. Cherry is my first choice for pork, and tied for my second choice (just behind Pecan) with Maple for poultry.

* Aside from their Oak and Alder pellets. ALL other Bear Mountain (as well as many other brands) products are "blends," with a 50% or more base of Oak or Alder. The company doesn't indicate which of those is used. But they tell me it's based on geography. I can't even get their Alder products locally here in Texas. I have to special order them. So I would assume that their blends that I have here have an Oak base.
