I've done a few smokes now on my Smoke Hollow propane smoker. Two chickens and a rack of spare ribs. Each time I've filled my water pan.
Will I always want water in the pan, or are there times that I shouldn't use it? What does the water do, and what would the result be if I didn't have the water?
I've got a friend who has an oil drum smoker, no water pan that I'm aware of, and his food is great. Side-burning smokers that I've seen pics of don't have the water either.
So, what's the water do, and whats the best way to use a vertical smoker with and without water?
Thanks!
Kevin
