Hello. Newbie here. Family gifted me a Smokin Tex 1400 for Fathers Day. Is there a general preference for using wood chips or wood chunks? The smoker came with hickory chunks for seasoning and a bag of cherry wood chips for smoking. I ask because when seasoning I put in the wood chunks and 4 hours later there was small wisps of smoke still coming out. First smoke was baby backs, put in the recommended amount of wood chips based on rib weight for a 4 hour smoke, but after 1.5 hours no more smoke.
Can wood get old, go flat, become less desirable with too much age? TIA. -Karl
