I see that they sell heating stoves that are fueled with corn. I wonder if
anyone's tried using corn as a heat and smoke source for barbecue.

Americans worry whether the rest of the world
considers us dumb, so we go to the polls and
remove all doubt.

My grandfather swore by adding a few cobs every now and again while
smoking deer sausage in his smokehouse. He said an old timer taught him
that (funny coming from a 90 year old). He never used them in the smoker
though. There he'd add a bit of pecan to sweeten things.

I'm also sure you can use corn cobs but not the kernels.
