A question to the crowd, what success have y'all had in burning this invasive wood, what kind of dry time do you try to use. I have some pretty large dead falls that could be put thru the stove vs a large bon fire which the local twp officals might frown on. I know that it is pretty poor for BTU's and it puts off a putrid odor when burnt, but if folks have had success I may need to reconsider my thoughts about this abundent wood source.
