- Firewood sales is more than just dumping wood at a customers place and driving away. Always over delivering more than the agreed amount is the way to earn customer loyalty and get many return customers.. not just in quantity but in time TALKING with the customer and doing more that the other guy will do.. be THE man or woman they want to call back again and again!
As a consumer, customer service is becoming very important to me. As a business owner/operator, I am working on that end of my business as much as possible.
Great advice from your end. Thank You.
Yup, it is the hard one...it takes effort and time...most people do not want to give much of either.
Pork and cherry wood is a good combination, alder is great for salmon and hickory is universal. I haven’t tried any oak yet but it’s on the radar!
Sounds good!
Definitely agree Chris. You pass along great information from experience. Some are afraid of change and get stuck in the ruts so to speak. I admit, I was one of those but I have since gotten out of rut on saw, firewood, etc. Good Night Irene. 👍🏻
Right on! Change is good!
Can't wait to see everyone going to the Midwest Firewood Frenzy!
Thanks for stopping by today!!!
Having a blast at Tazaplooza here in Western Washington.
Hopefully you and everyone else has a blast at Midwest Firewood Frenzy 😉👍
Yup, it was good! Thanks Sir Daniel!
Your stacking the wood more than likely made quite an impression on your customers, especially new customers. But it seems that you take care of your customers well, and your business is growing... so a great example! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Was nice to see you today. Got some ideas to do for videos when you can make it to my woodyard. Found a new toy at Wolfe Ridge to bring home with me today, but my wallet was a wee bit thin.
Yup, they have some great stuff there!
Nasty rain. I don’t think I’ve ever smoked and food. Maybe. But I don’t remember. I just cook on an electric stove. All food tastes just fine.
Have a great Sunday. 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋
Yup, two kinds of food....some is good and some is great!
Another excellent video Chris busy busy busy and that’s great news 😮😊❤
It sure is.... Thanks!!!
When you were talking you could see the storm moving closer. Nice
Stack job in the truck.
Yup, it came fast!
I agree with you that it’s their head that the flavor of smoked meat is greatly affected by the species of wood.
Yup, some profession chefs have told me it is mostly a marketing thing.
Chris, I have over a dozen residential smokers around the Nashville area that I sell my "smoker special" to. My SS is 1/3 face cord each of cherry, hickory, and white oak. Those three species covers all the various meats and vegetables a smoker might have in their barrel. Most keep ordering the same fractions of all three.
Nice idea! I like it!
Great video again Chris.
I’m a BBQ caterer and firewood is my newfound side hustle. For me, red oak is a must when smoking brisket. When smoking pork, cherry and apple is the way to go👍
I do the same thing; cook everything at my shop and then deliver hot in Cambros.
Thanks for the pro info and for watching!
Real good to meet you today at the frenzy, the kids really enjoy the stickers. My daughter is still in disbelief that she guessed your name first try and so am I lol. Take it easy Chris hope to see you back next year
Thanks for stopping to talk! You have some great kids! Keep on choppin'!
All hardwood burns. You are right, there are many good smoking woods. I get very little white oak. I only cut what goes down in storms. I get some red oak, but white oak trees almost never go down around me in SE Ohio. My place is covered in hickory. I have had 43 hickory trees go down in wind and ice storms in the last 3 years. they are bitternut hickory and are 26-32" at the base and I get 53 rounds before the first limb.
Yup, that is a mess of hickory you have there!
Good luck finding white oak in my stacks. It’s there but mixed with 3 other varieties of oak. Last years drought hit water oaks the hardest so that’s going to be filling my racks. It all cooks and smells great to me but I’m not a professional chef. Fun show.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you I meet you at the Midwest Firewood Frenzy
Thanks so much for stopping bye!
Have fun at the firewood frenzy today. ❤ Hopefully the rain stays away 😊😊
Pat from northwest WI
Thanks Pat I need a shower anyway!
Old school. Only thing missing is the glacier time taps with levitating wood lol. #first50 videos. LOL.
Thanks for watching!
Nice video Chris. Preparing for flood waters at my Missouri River cabin. I’d rather be stacking wood.GNI
Good luck!
Not a fan of stacking either but we do. We have a restaurant that smokes ribs, brisket, pork butt etc… all he cares about is oak! He hasn’t specified red vs white🤷♂️ It does smell different but I’m not sure the flavor of smoke ya get is noticeable? See ya tomorrow Chris👍🏻👍🏻GNI
Only stack at the delivery, if the customer don’t help charge them.
yup!
Yup, some people are particular about food ....not me it all tastes good...some better than others.
I’m partial to pecan for pork , competition mix for chicken and beef . It’s all good.
👍
When I fire up the smoker I use whatever I have laying around. It always works.
Yup, I have a friend who tested his 30something kids as to what kind of wood he smoked with a few times ....they always guessed wrong and they both grill and smoke a lot! So......
Nice boom catch on film!
I like beech. One of my favorite firewood species. I don't smoke so I have no idea how it would be smoking meats or anything but its great firewood. I have one right now I need to clean up. Keep finding more trees that fell the last few months and out behind my body shop the top of another beech back there came down recently. That is 5 of them the last couple years. Some real dead ash standing back there unfazed but the beech keep having the tops blow down every winter. Few ironwood trees that have blown over back behind the shop too. Just hard getting in and out of there.
Yup, beech is some fine wood!
Good Saturday morning Chris..
Hello Bobby!
Great video,it's 93 in East TN today my sales are dead,what kinda vid do you have me tomorrow Chris??? Lol
Tomorrow I almost get hit by lightning....again!
Yep, i go bone dry the next few months.
and you go hit miss wet the next few months.
.
I go so dry in summer, i just use a leaf blower to remove dirt from roads. Can literally have inches of powder dirt to blow off some roads.
We have had rain almost every other day for weeks here...and lots of it!
Good morning all, Chris, load up you need to travel. Catch you later this morning, bring your boots!
Thanks Kurt!
We all have people who only want certain woods. Hickory is one I have trouble getting my hands on!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Yup there are wood snobs out there!
You on the right track offering a different type wood for them to used in smoking there meat. Have a great day be safe
Thanks!
You weren’t joking, just beat the rain. 🌧
Yup, it came fast!
G’morning Chris. Nice ‘splaining. Nice chuckin and stackin. Sweet action.
GoodNightIrene
Thanks for the watchin'!
Early morning Chris your so true with your words this morning. Glad we think 🤔 the same went it come to firewood 🪵. Your gett rain 🌧 we probably have it 2 days from you Chris . Rain 🌧 good for corn 🌽, corn 🌽 make whiskey 🥃 lol 😊😊.
Morning Yup, Biblical rain!
I have found the same issue with meat smokers...White Oak only! All those long days of breathing that smoke has obviously effected the oxygen levels to their brains!🤣🤣
Have a great time at the Frenzy and show them Stihl lovers what a Husky is really capable of. A lot of that group up there, seem to be standing way to close to all the fire smoke also!🔥🔥
Haaaaa! Yup, it was a good time! I like food, some is good and some is great!
Keep the customer happy, and watch the Benjamins flow!! GNI
Yup, no big secret yet most most do not do it!
Nice and easy, another happy customer Chris😁
Thanks Rick!
Just in the nick of time! LOL!
Yup, it came fast!
Hi Chris, I am thinking about getting a smoker for myself because I have beech and cherry. I am amazed how there are mostly pellet smokers out there at the big box stores.
Yup, I think it is because it is easier for store shelf and sales in pellet form along with burning control with them.
A lot of them have gone to pellets because of their past dealings with inconsistent quality firewood delivery...
I have 3 deliveries this week right smack dab in the middle of a heat wave. I was wondering how your sales have been?
I have about a half cord of 100% white oak available for meat smokers or pizza oven place.
3.5 rows definitely one face cord, my haters would disagree with that.
I stacked all loads in my truck in my 1st two years of business, then I said F that, took way too much time. Backing truck up into garage way easier then trailer some of my deliveries would be impossible with trailer.
Yup, sales during heat are not great but summer time campers do help a lot. And now some boiler wood people are ordering
yup, it is a waste of time stacking for sure!
Couldn’t believe it but I just had someone call me about boiler wood but he was looking for 8’ logs.
I delivered some wood yesterday. You can send some of that rain down this way
Nice! We had 2 inches in the last 24 hours here....again!
@@InTheWoodyard we haven't had any rain in a couple weeks
The dumpers are super, but did you ever think about a trailer with a live floor?
Yes I have seen them...I would love to try one!
Nice video Chris! I hope you enjoy your weekend
Thanks! You too!
Just like you.. I'm allergic to lightning too
Most people are!
Forgot to say have a great time at the Frenzy, tell Tony I said hi 👋. I’d say Ken too but I don’t think he knows me or would remember me from the Hysteria?
I remember you Joe
Thanks Joe, we had a good time but it would have been better with you there!!!
I recently was asked if I had any white oak logs apparently white oak lumber is hot now too
Yup, some people like it! Nice meet you today!
Same here. First time I've been to anything like that, and everyone was great.
Good morning Chris yes haul wood and get payday ( Ty Ron
Morning ...yup!
Good morning everyone
Hello!
Chris
Different wood does impart different flavors
Some say yes some say no....I know food tastes good and other food is better!
We hauled oak to a restaurant that used it to cook pizzas in there ovens
Yup, that is what some want for that!
Hey now stay outta my white oak market lololol! It's good stuff!
Yup, some people like it!
4:25 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Sir Michael!
Hi Chris, Ed from Vermont
Hello there Ed!
Apple wood and pork.
Okay!
👍👍👍
Yup!!!
I smoke meat quite a lot too, the type of wood burnt affects the flavor as well. It isn't about the heat only. Just sayin. ;)
Maybe so, I like food, some is good and some is great!
🎉
Thanks!!
🤘
Thanks!
Anyone ever tell you that you kinda look like red green?
Yup, about every other day! Thanks....I do like duct tape too!
Woodhounds Chris and Ken dropped a new video on the Out of the Woodyard channel also.. It's a good-un...GNI
Thanks Greg!
Good Morning Woodhounds!(-:!
