Great company and honest people. I was unsure about it after my delivery because I thought I got shorted by a lot. Unfortunately it was because of my own mix up of the terminology. I got a call from I believe one of the owners and he explained it to me. Now I understand fully and I can honestly say this wood is superior quality and is burning fantastic. Great local business I highly recommend

I buy firewood for our indoor fireplace here every year. Good prices for all amounts of wood and the half face cord of oak lasts my wife and I the entire winter, usually with some left for the next one. The customer service is very quick and friendly and scheduling always goes smooth. The guys that drop it off are nice and clean with the delivery, even when you’re not around. Would highly recommend and will be a customer for years to come!

4th year we've purchased from Best Burn Firewood and we've been completely satisfied. The wood is delivered on time based on our delivery instructions and the delivery driver is courteous, offers to help and thanks us for supporting their business. We use the wood for our fireplace and because the wood is kiln dried, it starts quickly and burns efficiently. We will continue to purchase our firewood from Best Burn Firewood.

Quality Wood for Better Taste, Every Time

Clean, Premium Wood for Unmatched Flavors

Every piece of wood we deliver goes through a commercial screener that removes debris, bark scraps, and anything else that doesn't belong near a kitchen. No mud. No dirt. No inconsistent splits that throw off your burn time.

Wood-fired cooking lives and dies by what's in the firebox. Kiln-dried to 17% moisture, our hardwood ignites fast, burns clean, and holds a steady temperature — so your oven performs the same at 9 PM on a Saturday as it did at open. An active Milwaukee BBQ restaurant switched to us after years with another supplier and told us their meats had better color and taste within the first week. That's what clean, dry, properly prepared cooking wood does.

Quality food needs quality wood.

General Questions

What type of firewood works best for wood-fired pizza ovens?

BorderBorder
Oak is our top recommendation for pizza ovens. It burns hotter and longer than most hardwoods, delivering the consistent 700°F+ temperatures your oven needs night after night. Mixed hardwoods also work well and cost less, but if your oven demands steady, predictable heat for high-volume service, oak is the move. We'll help you decide based on your oven setup and weekly burn rate.

What firewood species do you recommend for open hearth grills and wood-fired cooking?

BorderBorder
For open hearth grills and live-fire cooking, we recommend oak, hickory, or cherry depending on the flavor profile you're after. Oak builds strong, long-lasting coal beds ideal for high-heat grilling. Hickory adds a bold, smoky character for BBQ-style programs. Cherry burns clean with a mild smoke — great for proteins where you want subtle wood influence without overpowering the dish.

Do you deliver to restaurant alleys, loading docks, and tight urban locations?

BorderBorder
Yes — and we do it every week. We work with wood-fired restaurants all across Milwaukee and Southeast Wisconsin, and we know city kitchens don't come with easy access. We have multiple delivery configurations and work with you ahead of time to map out the best setup for your specific location, whether that's an alley drop, loading dock placement, or a custom arrangement. If you have a tricky access situation, tell us upfront and we'll make it work.

What if my restaurant runs out of firewood unexpectedly?

BorderBorder
It won't happen — and that's not marketing language, it's a commitment our restaurant clients will back up. We know Friday nights don't wait for restocks. Whether your order slipped through the cracks or your kitchen burned through more than expected, we offer emergency deliveries for our restaurant accounts. Running out of wood mid-service is not an option for you, and we treat it that way.

How often do you deliver to restaurant accounts?

BorderBorder
We work around your kitchen, not a fixed calendar. Most of our restaurant partners run on a bi-weekly schedule, but many simply order on-call based on how busy their week gets. We're built to operate on demand — if you need a delivery quickly, call us and we'll make it happen. The goal is that you never have to think about your wood supply.

Is there a minimum order requirement for restaurant accounts?

BorderBorder
No minimum. Whether you're a single-location wood-fired concept burning through a cord a week or a larger operation with multiple sites, we'll build a supply plan that fits your volume. We scale with you.

Do you offer NET payment terms for restaurant and commercial accounts?

BorderBorder
Yes. We offer NET 30 for restaurant and commercial accounts. For larger corporate or multi-location operations, we can work beyond NET 30 on a case-by-case basis. We understand how food service billing cycles work and we're flexible — the goal is a long-term supply relationship, not a difficult invoicing process.

How is your restaurant firewood different from what I'm buying now?

BorderBorder
Most firewood in the market — even what gets sold to restaurants — is air-dried, inconsistently split, and arrives with variable moisture levels. We kiln-dry all of our wood at 260°F for 30 hours, getting moisture content below 15%. That means consistent ignition, predictable heat output, and no dirty or debris-covered wood going near your food. We've had restaurants tell us their meats have better color and flavor after switching to our wood. Quality food needs quality wood.
