I have a masterbuilt dual 2 door smoker and the chunks I'm using keep catching fire. I've searched the forum and have tried wrapping the wood tray in tin foil and it caught the tin foil on fire. I've also tried putting a cast iron pan over the chip tray and still catches fire. I'm at a loss. Not sure what else I can do. The design of this smoker really does not lend itself to raising the tray much higher. Any other ideas I can try? I also tried a AMZN pellets smoker an that caught on fire too. The weird thing is according to my maverick the temp inside is staying under 230 and is pretty consistent. Does the burning wood cause creosote or is it ok to cook with it like that? Thanks for any help
