Just ordered the LEM 20lb smoker do you have to use just the saw dust or can you use chips as well ?

Forgot to tell ya all I am a meat cutter who decided after a number of years to break down and buy a smoker and the grinder and we are going to have with this !! I love to hunt and I know of a whole mess of things you can do with venison and a smoker , not to mention just meat in general . I hope I made the right choice as to the purchase of the lem 20 lb smoker can't wait to get my mitts on it ..

Yea I wanted electric due to the cost of propane around here and didn't want to try my hand with charcoal just yet . Just set it and go for now hope to go a little bigger in a couple years then maybe charcoal be nice to build one from brick with a dutch oven hanger on the side !!
