I agree, try it out and fine tune it from there.

ok i will do that! but how do you not have a lot of smoke?? just less wood??

[Blue_Runner]

Don't know? However my guess is you will see lots of smoke at first, as the wood keeps smoldering it will slack off some. I doubt you see intense smoke for 5 hours straight? Or you could test the less wood theory and add more as you go?

Also if you soak the wood some of the smoke you see will actually be steam boiling off as smoke.

i joined a smoking site, they said less wood, and that soaking the wood is not necessary?
like you guys said try it and see what works, the only way to learn. no want to much smoke and not like from the beginning, better to start slow and build from thee.
going to cook first time sunday!
