I've got some standing dead oak tree's on my property, how can I tell if they are burnable? Don't know how long they've been dead but the bark is starting to loosen up.
Unseasoned red oak has an odor somewhere between Ragu spaghetti sauce and dirty sox.
Tonight i'm going to pour a jar of Ragu spaghetti sauce into my dirty, sweaty socks just to see if you are right !
I can see it later... " WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR SOCKS??? NOW HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET THAT OUT ? and where is the last jar of sauce?"
someone may end up in the dog house LOL:hmm3grin2orange:

In my experience most standing dead trees still have high moisture levels and could use some drying time after being cut and split.

And of course, there's the unmistakeable smell. Unseasoned red oak has an odor somewhere between Ragu spaghetti sauce and dirty sox. No stink once freshly split means the puey moisture is gone.
"NO, it doesn't! It smells like freshly split red oak; it smells great!". Until then, it never occurred to me that split red oak smelled like anything but red oak.
