Can I use wood chips or pellets in my Char-Broil grill?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, using wood chips or pellets in a Char-Broil grill is a great way to enhance the flavor of your food. However, it is important to understand the best practices for incorporating them into your grilling process. Char-Broil offers several grill models, so the method of using wood chips or pellets may vary depending on the type of grill you own, whether it is a gas, charcoal, or electric model. For gas grills, wood chips can be used in a smoker box or wrapped in aluminum foil. If you choose to use a smoker box, fill it with soaked wood chips and place it over direct heat. This will create smoke that infuses your food with rich flavors. If you do not have a smoker box, you can wrap the soaked chips in foil, poke holes in the top, and place it on the grill grates. When using charcoal grills, wood chips or pellets can be mixed in with the briquettes for added smokiness. Soak the wood ahead of time to ensure they smolder rather than burn quickly. For pellet grills, it is best to use high quality pellets specifically designed for grilling. These can be loaded into the hopper and will be automatically fed during grilling. You may wish to consult the instruction manual for specific guidelines. For more information about wood chip and pellet usage, consider looking at the current web page for additional tips and recommendations.
