Pellets in the tray instead of the wood chips? Trying to find away for my chips to last longer before I've to switch and have heard pellets will last longer.

I'm thinking the element mayn't get hot enough for pellets to work

Well that's BBQ, trial and error!! Not sure if it will work. If u do it, post it. I'm curious

Your chips went quick? Did u soak them?

Don't soak your chips they won't produce smoke until the water has evaporated.

I've always heard to soak you're chips about 20-30 min but to each his own.

I did as well but have since read its almost like your steaming instead of smoking for some reason.

 

[Erndoggy1000]

Try both ways, soaked and dry.
See what u come up with. That's the great thing about BBQ, no matter what you do chances are you'll have something good to eat in the end

It's true. Soaking chips just means you're heating and evaporating water before the wood starts to burn.

Like I said. To each his own!!
Everyone has there own ritual.

Do you want to produce good results or just have a ritual? It's not really up for debate that soaking wood chips only produces steam and delays the wood burning. It serves no functional purpose and is just wasted heat.
