Use dry wood chunks, if you have them. One good sized piece (small fist
sized) will usually do in a brinkman. What you are looking for is a
barely visible wisp of smoke coming from the cooker. If you must use
chips, put them in a pouch made from two layers of heavy duty aluminum
foil. Punch a few small holes in the pouch and place it on the hot part
of the fire.
