Get you a mill...
I do a little land clearing, little logging, little milling here and there. Mostly for decorative table slabs and what not.
Whenever i get cherry, hickory, white oak, etc that's too small or crooked to make decent slabs, I've been milling it 2x2 for bbq or pizza wood.
No bark, consistent sizes. Eliminate temp spikes and smoldering.
Just wanted to share

Just because you're not paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you

You should market it has Gucci smoking wood and you will sell plenty. Does it help maintain temps or burn times?

"Artisanal smoking timbers" lol
It sells pretty good.
I don't think it helps maintain temps or prolong burn times. You get almost instant light, very consistent, no "dirty smoke"
Edit I misread or misunderstood. Yes, the whole idea is to maintain temps at a consistent level with no spikes or dips
