Crosstimbers Blackjack and Red Oak

Firewood News: The "Blackjack Oak" is a member of the Red Oak family which thrives along with American Red Oak, Post Oak, Hickory and Pecan in a unique belt of forest called The "Cross Timbers" region spreading from north-central Texas throughout the eastern half of Oklahoma and into southeastern Kansas.

Cross Timbers Blackjack and Red Oak hardwoods combine maximum BTU output with an ultra-clean burn along with a less overpowering smooth smoke flavor, making it a highly desirable favorite at BBQ cooking contests and at many quality restaurants and finer steakhouses across the country... like These.


Cross Timbers Blackjack & Red Oak has long been a favorite for the most environmentally friendly and cost effective home-heating firewood as well.
