The foil works well, though. I usually don't put anything on my steaks besides kosher salt and cracked pepper. Let me know how the foiled chips work for ya.Hogwildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17414667638368955461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867133366442696221.post-65310985469757972902007-05-02T15:09:00.000-05:002007-05-02T15:09:00.000-05:00They worked well.

It was several (5-6+) years ago, and they came with the grill I bought then. I've never seen anything like them in stores. They were made specifically for gas grilling, though. I'm going to try the foil thing, or build a basket for some coals. If your adding a rub or sauce to meat, the gas does a good job, but I like my steaks without rubs/marinades and the gas alone doesn't quite cut it for them. Of course, I really don't have an excuse because I won't be dealing with any harsh NC winters... ;-)Th3Guns1ing3rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03886023345952316519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867133366442696221.post-9893621077589580142007-05-02T15:01:00.000-05:002007-05-02T15:01:00.000-05:00Slinger,I've never see what you're describing, but...Slinger,<BR/><BR/>I've never see what you're describing, but it's been a long, long time since I've owned a gas grill or shopped for any accessories. Did they work well? I always prefer real wood for my smoke. You can get chips (not chunks), put them in an aluminum foil pouch, poke a few holes in the pouch and sit it on a burner. That should get you plenty of smoke.<BR/><BR/>HogHogwildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17414667638368955461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867133366442696221.post-45744819021820957812007-05-02T13:44:00.000-05:002007-05-02T13:44:00.000-05:00Hey Hog.

I tried googling and see if I could find such a thing for sale, but with no luck. Have you ever come across anything like this?Th3Guns1ing3rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03886023345952316519noreply@blogger.com
