bge and wood chunks
 
I am new to the group...anyone ever try wood chunks rather than lump in a
bge? I am considering a brisket, how much of this mesquite stuff will I
need for, say, ten to twelve pounds of the beefy stuff?

Oh, and any recipes would be nice too

Lump for the heat, chunks for the smoke. IMHO

So you don't recommend mesquite chunks alone to cook in the egg, eh? Just
curious to try...perhaps pine would be a good smoking wood...ever try spruce
beer? ugghhh

Yer jivin' me, right? As I'm sure ya know, NEVER use pine (or other soft
wood) for Q'ing unless you really like creosote and stuff like that.
