What is your opinion on soaking your wood prior to placing on your coals? I have seen pros and cons. I have generally always soaked my wood so I don’t get a fire right away, but recently I have seen very compelling opinion that water does not soak into the wood very much, and what does only creates steam and not smoke.
I’m not completely convinced “yet”, but very open to this.
I have two smokers, one vertical that uses chips, and one offset that I use chunks, and/or splits in.
Please don’t be rude.
