Hickory is a strong smoke and should be used sparingly. A lot of people like to mix it with other milder types of wood, such as oak. Or simply limit the amount of time the wood is exposed to the smoke. Too much hickory smoke can cause the wood to be bitter. An alternative to hickory is manzanita, which has a similar flavor but is not as strong.
