f you go with a chip drawer, you don't need to soak your chips like stated above. It does nothing but delay smoke production, it doesn't prevent combustion. Preventing combustion is done by using better quality chips that aren't super dried out.
What are y'all's thoughts on propane smoker/grill combos?

I use wood chunks and i throw them in a bucket of water the night before. It works fine. No wrapping or anything. I've only used chips when i ran out of the chunks. Also, soaking chunks is optional. I do it to prevent flare ups, but i've also thrown straight chunks on without it setting fire.
A tip though. If you are using a smoker and an extension cord. Buy a higher voltage extension cord. They will draw more power and get higher heats, if needed. Though the lower voltage cords do well when smoking long and slow.
