Answer:
It is OK to burn, however you have to watch for a few things. Some cedar can tend to “pop” and spit little embers when it is burning, so make certain you have a good screen. Cedar can also burn very hot and quickly if dry, so best to mix the logs with others.
With these tips, it should burn fine.
