Maybe a dumb question, but I hope you'll give it some thought and let me know what you think...
I know that a lot of BBQ guys do not bother to soak their wood chunks in water because, even with a 24-hour soak, the water only penetrates a 1/8th of an inch, or so. (don't think so? Soak a chunk 24 hours and then split it open...)
My question is if anyone has thought, or tried, pressure cooking a few wood chunks in water for, say a half-hour, and then splitting it open to see how far the pressurized water had penetrated?
To my way of thinking, if that worked, it would be like having wood chunks on steroids.
