- Over the couple years I've been selling firewood, I've constantly been looking for ways to get more revenue for less work, and here's the latest offering I've had some success with - smoking wood. I've sold cherry, hickory and oak in bags of smoking wood chunks and its a quick and easy product to offer.
Log splitter: Wolfe Ridge Pro 28c
Chainsaws: Echo CS-590, Husq 455 Rancher, Stihl 181c, Kobalt 40v
Tractor: Kubota L3901

Cherry wood for BBQ has been in high demand in my area. There aren't that many wild cherry or black cherry trees in our forests and people are willing to pay a premium for cherry smoking wood. I bag up bbq wood chunks in 18x24 mesh bags and sell it for $18.99. Its about 0.5 cubic feet of wood. - Навчання та стиль
That’s a great idea! You should chip some up and dry it out for smokers that use chips. Keep up the good work!
Good stuff Phil. Seems like we all sell convenience more than wood. Convenience has good margin if you charge for it.
At 2:40 when you put your hand between the log and the splitter it brought back memories of when I put my hand through the splitter
Good eye. I knew it was wrong right when I did it. Fortunately the block was a few inches from the wedge so I had a little extra time to react.
@FlatCreekOutdoors I had lots of luck till I didn't.. now I don't care what the wood looks like I'm never putting my hand near moving parts again... hard lesson to learn from.. be safe my friend
That heartwood is amazing for aging whiskey.
Great idea
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video Phil…….build it they will come…..same principle 👍🍒🪵 great idea 👍👏🇺🇸 Rick
The more you increase your inventory the more customers will buy from you,
Hope you are also planting cherry trees to maintain the balance with nature otherwise bad karma will certainly come.
Please be careful. It was scary to see your hand in danger of being mistaken for the log by the splitter.
Love the video Phil! Just out of curiosity as I do not use wood for my BBQ. Does the wood need to be seasoned at all? I have access to all 3 types of trees and might give this a try with my firewood stand. Thanks Ben
I'm not really a BBQ enthusiast, but I've heard it all. Some BBQers want green, some partially seasoned, some dry. I'm assuming I'm selling to the average/casual home cook who probably expects it to be dry. For the oak and hickory I'll chunk up seasoned wood. Cherry dries pretty fast so I'll just let it dry out a couple months in my garage before selling it.
Ideally, its pretty much same as folks who heat their home. We prefer 20% or less. One huge difference though, we can NEVER use certain woods like Pines, Ceders, Locusts, and couple others. But most common hard woods and fruit woods are great. I know some do prefer slightly greener, but its mostly below 20%.
who makes that splitter? It looks like it'd work with my JD 1025r.
Its a wolfe ridge pro 28c. Its not powered off the tractor. It has a honda engine.
Dear God burning cherry???
I taught the same 😭
I thought he was going to sell it for turning or something...
