Welcome to the forum. You are going to get a wide variety of answers. Smoke flavor is a personal taste.

I am a big fan of Apple. Probably followed by pecan, oak and maple.

I gotta go with Hickory for a "pick one", but like Apple on Pig and Pecan on Turkey.

Apple for poultry, cherry for pork. Apple if you have to pick one. Here we go again...  ;D

I've really been enjoying Pecan lately. Seems I go through large amounts of hickory in the summer though. Must be all the ribs.  :)

 ??? Tough Call!  Depends on the mood.

I keep on hand:
Apple, Maple, Pecan, Mesquite & Alder.

Apple for pork
Maple for Jerky
Pecan for chicken
Mequite for beef
Alder for salmon
and a combination of all the above for what is listed above  ;D

Hickory is the "default" here. Pork butts, Turkey legs

Pecan for Prime Rib.

Maple for Canadian Bacon.

Cherry for Turkey.

Apple just because...

I just bought some oak and mesquite...

If I could only go with one, it would probably be oak.

But, when it comes to smoking, I'm more of a polygamist.......you just can't survive on one :D
