    How many use lump?

    I have always used KBB ever since I got my first WSM. Lately thought about trying lump. Less ash but I know it gives off more heat. I run a guru so I think that can easily be controlled. Anyone use it? How do you light your WSM with it? Just add a couple lit pieces to a full ring?

    Adding wood to charcoal?

    Anyone ever add a chunk or two of wood to the grill when they put the foot on to give it that open fire smell? Grilling chicken for the game and thought I could add some hickory to the coals when I put chicken on.

    Wasting Charcoal

    I always use way to much charcoal for the job at hand. I either don't use enough and dont get the high heat/longevity of a cook I want or I use a full chimney and end up with it being wasted:mad: Anyone have a simple method how they decide how much of a chimney to use?
