To obtain your favorite smoke flavor, experiment by using chunks, sticks
or chips of flavor producing wood such as hickory, pecan, apple, cherry,
or mesquite. Most fruit or nut tree wood may be used for smoke
flavoring. Do not use resinous woods such as pine as it will produce an
unpleasant taste.
Wood chunks or sticks 3" to 4" long and 2" to 1" thick work best. Unless
the wood is still green, soak the wood in water for 20 minutes or wrap
each piece in foil and tear several small holes in the foil to produce more
smoke and prevent the wood from burning too quickly. A lot of wood is
not required to obtain a good smoke flavor. A recommended amount is 3-
4 wood chunks or sticks. Experiment by using more wood for stronger
smoke flavor or less wood for milder smoke flavor.

lid by tilting it toward you to allow heat and flame to escape
away from your face. If flame flare-ups occur, replace the
dome lid and unplug the grill to smother flame. Do not use
water to extinguish a grease fire.
