Chestnut

Anyone cooked with Chestnut wood - if so, was it any good??

I use Walnut in the cold smoker a lot, and it's very good. Quite a full and rich quality to it, but lighter than oak. I suspect chestnut will be similar but lighter?

I used Chestnut at Mayhem in May, I liked it.

We used it last night, smelt nice, quite a mild taste but we liked it

I think it's a good alternative to hickory, if I can get more over winter I will probably go for that.
