Great video. The debate on soaking chips never seems to end. Made no sense to me. It’s nice to hear Cowboys opinion.

I think when you get to hockey puck size wood 1 inch thick, soaking for 30mins helps slow it down to fully get a 360 degree puck burning/smoking action.

Did the wood chips on the grill even start to smoke!?

@rogerwilcojr 4 ай бұрын

In a metal pan in an electric smoker, cooking low and slow 225F, should the wood chips cook down to ash or just become black, and does it make a difference? I'm only getting my chips, the smaller ones, to turn black after about an hour. The larger chips are just dark brown or not even started. I do set it for 275 for the first 10 minutes until I see smoke being produced. At a higher temperature while seasoning the smoker, the chips did turn to ash. Edit: note the vents are fully open and those are temperatures on the grate.

With electric smokers, it's best to read the manufactures instructions to see how often to replace the wood chips. On a gas grill, we replace them every 35-40 minutes. They will often be black, no ash.

At what temperature on a gas grill do the wood chips start to smoke? If I'm cooking at 250, is there a chance they won't smoke?

@danielmoznett6422 Жыл бұрын

They should smoke as long as you put the chips directly over the burner. If they start to ignite just move them away from the fire and cover.

@zoulzopan 11 ай бұрын

Great video thanks for the info. So the smoke box don't have to be right over direct fire for the chips to start smoking? Like I don't have to take my flavorizer bars off correct? or put the smoke box underneath my grill grates?

@CowboyCharcoal 11 ай бұрын

You want to set your smoker box right over the grill grates on the direct heat. Wait just a few minutes, and they should start producing smoke.

@zoulzopan 11 ай бұрын

@@CowboyCharcoal hey I tried using a smoke box this weekend and the wood chips just doesn't want to light even if I put it on top of the grill grates on direct heat. I had to take off my grates and put the box on the flavorizer bars and it still barely smoked and took like 10-15 mins to light. Do you have any suggestions.

@@zoulzopanyou can use a gas torch for start burning, but be careful. I prefer to soak the wood chips for 5 minutes and. This simply helps keep the wood chips from burning, because while the bottom or side layer is smoldering, the rest of the wood chips are not dry enough for a flame. In my personal opinion and experience.

very interesting. I am wondering why weber says to soak the woodchips then? Is this because theirs are different to cowboy's?

@CowboyCharcoal 15 күн бұрын

A lot of places still say to soak wood chips. However, we find that unless its an electric smoker, the smoke (not steam) from dry chips is better.

@zambokid89 14 күн бұрын

@@CowboyCharcoal I tried not to soak them on a gas bbq and it catches fire very quickly and I waste them straight away as the flame gets super high. I think moiste them at least prevent them from burning straight away.

Educational. Do you need to wear gloves when handling wood chips?

@CowboyCharcoal Жыл бұрын

No, you do not. We have tons of gloves on hand for these videos and a wash station near by, but there is no reason you would need to wear gloves when handling wood chips.

To slow the process. Depends on grill type.
