Ok so I just bought a new Trager Texan yesterday and did my first smoke today (beer can chicken). I've been using an offset for years and I'm a little disappointed with this purchase. Hopefully someone can give me a few pointers to make me more at ease with this purchase. So the most important thing is I didn't have a smoke flavor or even penetration into the mean. I let the pellets ignite then cooked at 350 for 2 hours.
Is there a way to get more smoke from these things, there was a little produced the entire time but definitely not enough to be a "thin blue smoke" like is needed for the flavor.
Any tips at all are welcomed!
