Wood Chip Bowl

[gatordjw]

I just got a masterbuilt 40” propane for Christmas. I cant wait to try it out.

I noted that the wood chip bowl was rather small on this smoker. Has anyone replaced it with anything larger?

Hi, I'm new here, I haven't tried it, but I'd like to know who everything is working. Can you please share your experience after using it? Thanks in advance

Welcome to the site, I always busted chunks up and put in mine, they lasted a lot longer than chips, also my chip holder is cast iron with a lid so they didn't burn up quickly , whatever you replace with needs to have a lid with some holes in it

I also use a 10" cast iron pan no lid though.

I have the MB propane smoker. I actually use a smoker box on top of the stock chip pan and put chunks in it for low and slow cooks. It gives enough separation from the flame to heat up and smoke but not burst into flames. For a higher heat cook (ie chicken or turkey) i have a cast iron pan that I place on the stock pan. Heats up well and smolders the chunks without them catching flames. It works for me.
