Something that I omitted in my first comment about soaking wood chips I am referring to using a gas grill with smoker box Or smoker pouch this is when you have to be careful of soaking the wood chips . A rule of thumb don’t soak your wood chips.👍
It is the great debate in the grilling world, soak wood chips or dry wood chips for the grill. Let me put a fine point on that. if you are going to grill steak or some burgers on direct heat which is usually how it’s grilled and you want to add some smoke flavor to it . if you soak your wood chips first by the time the water burns off as steam you added zero smoke and your food will be done . all you would have done is add smelly steam to your food. Don’t soak wood chips for a short grilling time. Depending on the temperature of your grill, it takes about 15 minutes to change steam in to smoke. Any comments 🙀
