I'm positive it's oak of some sort, and judging by the smooth bark it looks like it could be a relatively young red oak. I'm sticking with red oak...
Good to know. If I ever have the opportunity I'll try some out. I've been burning coal beds down with conifers this year but I almost have to run...

A windy 28 and dropping fast. An hour ago it was 38! Supposed to wake up to 7 degrees by dawn, and only hit the mid teens for highs tomorrow. I’m...
Yeah I don’t have a ton of it this year, just some dead/barkless that’s been drying for a little over a year, top covered. It was all around 20%...
