TEST KITCHEN TIP:  To use the SmokeStation wood chip drawer, we recommend starting with the drawer 1/2 to 3/4 full of wet wood chips.  Keep a spray bottle of water handy to mist the wood chips.  Keep the burner on LOW.  Monitor frequently.  When wood chips become charred to black, add more wet chips on top or mist with the spray bottle to keep smoke going without flames.
