So...can I really just throw these in my gas grill or should I buy one of those little smoker boxes? Thanks

NO! First soak them in plain water for 30-40 minutes and then put them in a cast iron smoker box. You can get one from Amazon.com, where else you you get it? I don't advise the stainless steel ones as they're way too expensive and they don't seem to work as well as the cast iron one. I found that the Jack Daniels works great on spare ribs - anything pork.

I'd say you should use a smoker box. They aren't expensive at all. I would never throw these in a gas grill; perhaps a charcoal one, but even then I'd use a smoker box. If you don't want to purchase one, you could wrap some wet chips up in foil and just poke some holes in it.

You can buy a smoker box if you want. I suggest looking online for wood chip ideas and use heavy duty aluminum foil and wrap the wood chips, poke holes in foil also. and set them over your coals or your gas grill fie. Good luck...

I honestly use it for a smoker fire box but if you are grilling veggies "the suggested use" I would grab a cheap pair of oven gloves and that should work just fine.

If your smoker accepts smoking wood pellets then yes! I've tried a bunch of different brands and these give off the best smoke flavor. I currently use a char grill electric side box smoker and these have given me competition BBQ!

They do the heating, you need a pellet grill. I don't know how good they would work on gas, charcoal or electric.

As you are probaby aware, Traeger grills are better for smoking and slow cooking than for grilling. I use mine almost exclusively for low-temp smoky goodness. But, with the grill grates directly on the Traeger cooking grate and the temp up high, it is possible to grill on the Traeger using the GrillGrate provided you give them ample time to heat up.. That is why I bought them. Having said that, I mostly use them on my propane grill.

These are more like sawdust. I believe for using little smoker boxes. Like in a gas range.

None. This is a smoker box for wood chips, not an actual smoker. You would us this with a grill.

Cook at low temp (200-235) with good pellets (they should smell strongly of wood in the bag - if not they are too old). You should have all the smokey flavor you want....

Technically you can do either. You will get better smoke if you put it under the grates directly on the heat source. You might not get enough heat above the grates to generate smoke on some grills.

This box is to put chips to create smoke. It is a small box that is placed inside the grill. Works pretty good!

Yes they can. I've used pellets to add smoke when using gas grills for a long time; although I haven't used this brand. I use BBQ Delight, and they use to sell a smoker kit for gas grills. Just fill your smoker box, and the best location is under the grate close to the flames. They should also work on top of the grates, though not as well, and it will take additional time for them to start smoking. As mentioned in an earlier reply, don't soak them.

No. The ones you need for the fryer are smaller. You'll have to go to the Char-Broil site or some other place to find them. Or you could buy the smoker?

Good idea. I would pay special attention to where your flame is though. I think you would have a fire hazard on your hands if these got anywhere close to an open flame.

smokey joe is the smallest charcoal grill that weber makes. When you are using charcoal it is easiest and actually better to just put the chunks or chips directyly in with the charcoal. You want to wait to add the wood until you almost ready to put your food on so they do not burn up to quickly. The smoker boxes are mainly used for gas grills. If you want to use this for charcoal though this would be a little large but should still work for a smokey joe.

Perhaps a rib rack, bags of kingsford charcoal, an instand read thermometer, tongs, oh and a Weber Chimney starter--thats the most important thing. Tell him about the weber virtual bullet forum as well. Its a great resource!! Happy smoking.

There is no place to store them on the Weber Q. They are a little bigger than i was expecting, My plan was to put them in a bag and store them in the grill, but they will not fit. The quality of the tool set I feel makes up for the lack of place to store them.

Absolutely!I think it works better on a charcoal grill!I have a gas grill and a charcoal grill. I purchased this smoker box mainly for the charcoal grill. It's heavy cast iron and will last many years.
