hi candy, thanks for your thoughts.
while i do minion method with lump, it pretty much a raging inferno down there cooking hot and fast. not much unlit coal really, to bury packets in. i also don't want to make 'em.
i was looking for suggestions on a conatiner for the smoke stix and thoughts on wether or not it'll burn just as quick in the high heat enviornment.
would the often seen/sold cast iron smoker box work for like 3 chunks for at least an hour or 2 do you think?
i don't mind refueling, but every 1/2 hour is too often.
i'm gonna try it out either way, just picking your brain...
