    What's the BTU and dry time. I can't find it anywhere. I'm assuming better than silver. I just got a cord of it along with a cord if black locust. We were next to the house and has to do some rigging and bucket work . I'll do a new thread with pic later. He's got about 7 more BL to come down. I'm jacked

    Definitely better BTU than silver and red. And dries quick. For a nasty invasive tree it makes pretty good firewood.

    I'd say it's a hair quicker drying than sugar, but definitely longer than silver or red. And I love burning it. I've gotten nice overnight burns from it.
