I would suggest you switch to a milder flavor smoking wood. Hickory can have quite a bite! Try some apple or cherry or even maple. Home Depot and Walmart seem to carry the bags of chips (I am assuming nationwide) so that might be better to try than the pellets. If you are getting a bunch of...
PopPop,
When you update your location, I sure hope it says NW Ohio! I'd love to see you in action at that place. That is one awesome setup......maybe in 35 years I'll have something that nice! I can only hope.
