Persimmon is a tree of the ebony family with yellow to orange-red plumlike fruit. The fruit is sour and astringent when green but sweet and edible when ripe
The persimmon grows very slowly and normally only reaches 35 feet tall when 50 years of age. The persimmon grows throughout the Southern United States and is well adapted to mild moist climate.
Through our research we have found that Oklahoma persimmon wood is an excellent wood for smoking fine meats particularly for commercial establishments.
When the wood is used for smoking it passes on the sweet dry taste of the fruit. It is important to use only persimmon wood cut in the early fall from single seed fruit trees just before the fruit fully ripens.
The sweet dry taste it imparts to smoked meat has been reported to double drink orders substantially increasing sales and profit.
