    SMOKER BURNER IGNITION & USAGE USING THE SMOKER The smoker uses presoaked wood chips. For best results with faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers, and chops, etc., we recommend using finer wood chips because they ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods such as roasts, chicken, and turkeys, etc., we recommend using larger wood chunks because they ignite slowly and provide smoke for a longer period of time.
