can I use wood 'chips'?

Former Member

I got my new model 55 this weekend. Wow, it's just great!!!

I've already made a rack of baby backs and they were wonderful.

I have a lot of wood around, both chunks and chips. Can I weight out appropriate amounts of wood chips and use them?

I'd stick with chunks.

I guess in threads we have had in the past,chips could possibly catch fire.

You can use chips if you contain them in a small foil dish like the ones used under pot pies. Be sure to measure the wieght using a postage or food scale. One once of chips are a lot bigger than one once of chunk. Rule of thumb in general: 2 oz. of wood per 10 pounds of meat. Scale that up or down according to your load and you will always find success.
