When it comes to wood chips...ALWAYS soak em, then put in a foil pouch and punch a couple of holes in the foil and just lay them on the coals to the side. Make 2 or 3 pouches of wet chips so you can add more as you need em. Don't just throw them on the fire or you don't get the smoke action. I don't like mesquite(cuz it's everywhere here and sometimes is overpowering[except when I cook cabrito]goat to all you non-Texans. but cherry and hickory, or even pecan, work well cooking birds. P.S. I may not be a mechanic, but I can russle up the grub. :-) Michael in San Antonio 91GL Weekender AT 2.1L 'Gringo'
