This ^. What's the worst that will happen, you'll have "just ok" BBQ?

Me too - except the blue cheese - going to have to try that.

I've got some Royal Oak hickory and mesquite briquettes. I didn't notice a big difference when using it to smoke, probably because I was already using smoke wood. However, I like to use it for grilling, seems to give burgers and steaks a little something extra.

I remember there used to be pictures with this thread and wish I could see them again. I thought about giving these a whirl sometime. Has anybody else made these before?
