Smoking/Barbecuing With Almond Wood
Seeing as I am an almond farmer living in the central valley of California almond wood is readily available. So I took some wood from the ranch, seasoned it in my backyard, and did my first all-almond wood cook.

Growing up in kern county this is the best stuff out there in my opinion, high btu as well so it’s great for wood stoves and bon fires.

Yeah it works great. Burns for a long time as well.
I love cooking with Almond, not only does it burn a long time compared to Apple, but the coals it makes also last longer so no need to add more charcoal on a long cook and it burns way cleaner than oak in a closed pit. Great video!

Amazing
Outstanding informational non malt liquor video. I've used almond wood for about 3 yrs now I love it. I'm surrounded by almond trees so I'll pull over and help myself to some on occasion.. I don't think the farmers mind they usually cut up and leave close to the roads. Cheerz

Thanks for watching. And yeah I doubt the farmers mind. I know the last time we ripped two orchards out we were trying our best to give it away.
Man I just thought about trying almond wood, also being out here in the Central Valley. That’s a beautiful pit! I need to find me some almond wood soon. I don’t think it’ll be too difficult to do so either! It’s time for California to have some signature smoking woods similar to texas’ different regional smoke!
Always remove the bark before you burn. The flavor is much better
I just tried an almond wood smoke and you got it right on the money my freind ... it smokes really sweet Like sugar...
Thanks for the video, ive been thinking of using almond and will give it a try. I also like your smoker looks very well put together

Good video. No need to use a chimney can for the coals. Just put some paper or kindling under your charcoal grate and light.
Great video brother. I live in Southern California and Almond is plentiful here as well. I recently bought a load of Almond and I was curious about the density of the wood. I tested it with my moisture meter but it still seemed heavy compared to other types of seasoned wood. You have dispelled all my doubts brother. Keeep smoking brother. I just subbed to your channel.

Just giving some info...almonds are not indigenous to California. Unlike red/white/live Oak, almonds were introduced about 60 years ago. However, almond wood is plentiful in California. Good video by the way.
Thanks for the video! I live in the valley too. I’m going to do a “poor mans” brisket tomorrow

You're welcome! And I would let it "cure" or dry out for about 6 months after cutting it down.
I'm from Richmond California, trying to hook up with some apple wood, I would love some direction? you're right there's plenty of almond wood over here but I can't seem to find any Apple
Great video, thank you. Can you do a comparison between oak vs almond wood.
Looks good

Cool man
How do you like that Lang? Any add ons you’d recommend? Thinking about getting one shipped to Oakland. Shipping expensive? Great video. Going to start using Almond

I love it. And the only add on I would do is the front pneumatic tires. The shipping is a bit steep, but I think it is worth it. You should be able to contact them and get a quote on that.
Free? I can’t find it!
That smoker is fuckin' killer
Can you use it for home heating in your fireplace

I have not. The branches on our trees are still pretty thin. So they would burn up pretty quickly.
