JOHN’S WOOD





In search of chocolate covered bacon was our quest at the Zucchini Festival in Hayward California. Yes, there was deep fried zucchini but no bacon. We did happen across ‘John’s Wood’ booth. This was a barbeque smoker’s bonanza find. John has multiple varieties of woods for smoking purposes. Alder, pecan, apple, mesquite, cherry, peach are some of the woods for sale.



Apple wood was our selection. A large shopping bag full of small chunks of wood was filled for the paltry sum of six smackeroos. ‘John’s Wood’ is a resource that will be great for our future smoking materials. No chocolate covered bacon today but a great find for smoking woods.

    I dunno "future smoking materials" has an illicit ring to it. ;) You should make choco bacon at home.

    Great find. There's been a surge of "micro retailers" like this around Knoxville at the new public market.
