How can I get my woodchips to smoke on a gas grill?
I've tried two methods: foil bag with holes and open aluminum tray.
I've soaked the chips overnight. I have a gas grill so I have to put the bag or try on top of the triangular drip covers.
I also wait 10-15 minutes before putting a big piece of salmon on the grill. the salmon comes out with zero smoked taste.
I'm cranking the grill to 500 degrees and waiting 15 minutes.

I picked up on your site by way of a post you left at TomPeters.com, and I like your VPR commentaries on the occasions I happen to be listening.I am interested in your efforts toward self-reliance on food and look foward to following your blog. We have about the same acreage as you, but our taste for travel would be a challenge to raising beef, I think. Anyway, I look forward to reading about your experiences in your blog.I have always thought that maple syrup was a great buy at $35/gal, given all the work involved to make it. But two years ago my then three-year-old preschooler came home and announced she wanted to make “maple syreeup”. I couldn't say no to that! So I borrowed some buckets from a neighbor and tapped three trees with three taps each. I don't know how many gallons of sap a tree produces, but I do know that three trees provided more than enough sap for a backyard sugaring operation like ours. And I believe the ratio is about 40:1.I started boiling over a wood fire with a couple of cast iron pans, but soon realized that to make any headway the surface area of the evaporator is key. I ended up buying an aluminum tray ($27) from Home Depot – I think it is designed to go underneath a pressure tank in the basement. It comes with a hole in the side for drainage which defeated my purpose somewhat; I just plugged it with a cork, also from Home Depot. That got things moving! And much to my surprise, I discovered the joys of sugaring – what a great way to spend a sunny day after a long winter you haven't purchased it already, you should consider the classic Backyard Sugarin' ReadHartland, VTrick “at” readdata.net]]>
