Wood chips in a pellet grill

[MrPhilGrillTX]

Anyone try this with their smokefire (or any other pellet grill)?

8^) but I am kinda curious.

For the love of God, don't do it.
The grill is not made for it.

More than likely jam the auger.

More than likely jam the auger.

Or cause a back-burn in the auger and set the whole hopper full of fuel on fire.

That guy is the biggest idiot on YouTube. Don't believe me just go watch some of his videos. I would never do that.

And furthermore, if you want more smoke during your cooks, here's what I do. I place a couple of big chunks of wood on top of the burn pot grate. I've never had any problems with anything going wrong. I get a perfectly smoldering chunk of wood every time. The only downside, before the next cook I need to clean the ashes off.
