Chasdev 234 Report post Posted January 20 I read the post about "supersmoke" and since my CampChef lacks that mode I was thinking about dropping a chunk of hardwood into the burn chamber before startup to add an extra layer of smoke. Anyone ever tinker with added chips/chunks to the burn chamber? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burn pot, deflector plates, etc? 1 bel4_20 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burn pot, deflector plates, etc? Finally got a chance to take some pics inside my Camp Chef 24. The drip tray is supposed to be tilted from left to right (as pictured) but I'm going to experiment with it laid flat on top of the primary heat deflector (as again pictured) and with a pan sitting on to catch the good stuff and allow me to introduce some water to the cooker.

bosco 12,906 Report post Posted February 2 I add wood chunks to the grill often. The U shaped deflector that sits over top of the fire pot is where I add them. I basically thin chop wood chunks and rest them on the deflector with their ends partially hanging over the edge close to the burn cup. They will begin to smoulder and slowly burn throughout the cook. Now that I understand the smoke setting and pre cooking at 165 degrees with super smoke, I don't really use this hack anymore. But if you want to beef up you smoke this will work. I will try and find a photo that I took and post it later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
