Thanks Jimpam!!
I should have mentioned that I use the CharGriller Pro. Yes, your comment makes sense. I find that when I put the chunks on hot coal, I get lots of white smoke. I suspect I am using too much wood. Then I saw a video in which the wood chunks were placed on a pan and on hot...
Hi All,
