I have the Genesis E-330 with the smoker kit (7575). The first time I used it I couldn't get any smoke. The next time I was able to get the smoke started with some extra heat and then I turned it down to low. After about 45 minutes, the chips were on fire. I put the fire out and replaced them to have them start on fire again later. I am not talking about smoldering but full flames. I contacted Weber's tech support and they are telling me that I shouldn't be doing any long smoking with my E-330 and that is was only good for about 30-60 minutes of smoke. I thought I would be able to at least be able to cook a turkey on there like my dad has done on a gas grill for years.
What could I be doing wrong? I had the smoker box only half full. Should it have been full to the top? Is Weber right about it only being good for 30-60 minutes?
Thanks.
