Trying to track down juniper sawdust. I have a couple items I'm going to cold smoke in my pro-q. Having a hard time locating this sawdust in the US.

chuck in some ground up juniper berries in a mild dust from another wood?

Yes, that great traditional curer Maynard Davies used both juniper berries and coriander in the smoke house. As you say Dave, he just chucked them on the smouldering dust.

and coriander is easily grown in the English garden for both fresh leaves and ripened seed.
Only two disadvantages - For Scotty not in England this may be of no use and the seed ripens progressivly, so you have to go collect every other day or two to avoid too much wastage. Ok, I'll get my coat and go back to "Grow your own"
