Bailing twine from a local farm was the recommendation of my
"bee teacher." I have also heard that sumac (non-poisonous variety
please!) clusters work well.
 
The bailing twine works fairly well, I am sure like anything else,
you have to be careful not to pack it in the smoker too tightly.
It produces a nice white smoke, no residue etc. I would wonder if
the pine needles (recommended in an earlier post) would leave a
tar residue over time, esp. under a slow burn.
