Same here, new Weber Genesis. Last weekend we abandoned the smoker box
and wrapped the soaked chips in aluminimum foil. Shaped like a log,
with the ends open. Placed it right on the back vaporizer bar. It made
a little smoke, not much.

I'm going to try the suggestion of just placing a soaked chunk right on
the vaporizer bar. Maybe it'll get hot enough then.

We're also considering getting the Weber Smokey Mountain w/the rebate on
amazon.com and using that for butts, ribs and brisket. We'd continue to
use our Genesis for hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken.
