Low smoke from UDS

March 20, 2024, 11:15 AM

I have no problem keeping my UDS in the 225-250 range but at this temp my wood chunks not producing smoke. Anyone else have this issue? I’ve put the chunks directly on the fire as well as scattered on unlit coals. I’m using Jealous Devil XL lump and quality smoke wood. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Are you sure there is no smoke? Good smoke is almost invisible. Are you getting is smoke flavor on the product?

Are the wood chunks getting consumed? If they are, then you're getting smoke.
