Soaking woods

[Chris G.]

I just got my new WBS, and havnt used it yet, but have been smoking for many years on my Weber kettle.

I have soaked my wood in Jack Daniels, beer, pineapple and apple juices...I presume the same can be done in the WBS?

Thanks! /infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

I wouldn't even bother soaking if you are using chunks, only with chips so they don't burn up so fast.

Hi Chris G, and welcome!

See the All About Woods page and look for the heading "To Soak or Not To Soak". Click on the photos of the soaked wood chunk, then decide for yourself if it's worth the effort.

Have fun with your new WSM!

Regards,
Chris
