Whats the point of mixing woods? never seen the point even though ive screwed with it many times. Seems to me any hardwood runs the flavor of the fruit wood.

I find mixing gives it a subtlety that I like. I like the flavor of hickory, but not too much, while fruit woods are very, very forgiving. So I use primarily the fruit wood, with a little hickory thrown in.
Personally, I don't like cooking with mesquite, it gets too overpowering very quickly for me. If I'm really wanting that smoky flavor I'll go all out on hickory.
