Hi, new to forums, looks like a lot of good knowledge here. I picked up a used Masterbuilt propane smoker. Not a purist on smoking, just having fun. Building a real smokehouse next year. Got out a new gas hose and trusty drill bit and converted to natural gas. Working well, fires right up.
Question: The pan for wood chips is of course thin steel thing, kind of rusty. I have an assortment of cast iron frying pans, skillets, pots, you name it. Anyone use or modify old cast iron for a wood/chip holder? How much heat do I need to get smoke going? Any advice welcome.
