Reply to "Very little smoke at low temp (~200F)"

I just wanted to add that I smoked some baby back ribs again this weekend. I set out some larger chunks of wood in the sun the day before. I placed 3 chunks of wood (total wt of 5.3 oz) in the tray, near the front, and completely covered a hole with each piece. Starting with a cold Smokette Essential and the temp set to 250, I had smoke in ten minutes and it lasted for about 2.5 hours. The wood was almost completely ashed.

So dry your wood chunks as best as you can, and save the bigger chunks for longer smokes and the smaller chunks or pieces for your shorter smokes.
