Years ago I bought my firewood from a fellow; every year he asked the same question “fireplace or stove?” Fireplace I’d say and he’d say “I’ve got some hedge (that’s what Osage orange is called in these parts) it burns good and hot and works great in a stove but it’ll pop like hell; you don’t want it in a fireplace.”
