Either way, I’ll burn a creosote buster log as soon as I get one available.

We have a ton of water oak at my family’s place in Lavaca County. It’s become my go-to for firewood for both the fire pit and the BBQ. It’s easy to cut, easy to split, dries/cures fairly fast, burns consistent temp for Q and is very mild in the smoke taste department which is what me and the family like. My grandparents always called them pin-oaks, but after a cousins got her masters in Forestey from ATM we were corrected and told they were actually “water oaks”....
