I have done wings on both my WSM and OTS. Both ways come out really good. OTS is faster... Only about an hour and you have smoked wings. On the WSM I go for two hours and then drop them down on the coals to crisp them up. Its all in what you are feeling and time constraints.
Thanks for the replies and the article. I guess I am confused what is the difference between planking with cedar and using the cedar as smoke. The wood is burned and smokes the same way.
I have read a few post about using cedar wood for smoking and still haven't gotten a good sense whether to use it or not. I have some cedar that was knocked down on a farm from a storm and we cut it up and brought some home. The tree had been dead for years. I was going to do a salmon fillet...
I have done two London broils on the smoker and both came out really good. I watched the temps of them and got them to about medium doneness. I would however sear them before smoking to lock in the juices.
I have used both and like them about the same. I have used the big green egg lump, cowboy lump and kingsford blue. I get a longer burn on kingford but the lump runs hotter. I say get a bag of both and experiment and see which one you like.
