re: No access to smoker and grill was smashed by branch - use oven for wood chips?

Nah, I've definitely done this before. It worked out great.

I wish I would have taken pics. Do the board a favor and record the process, then upload the video to youtube. It will definitely be beneficial for the entire board. Sometimes the weather just doesn't cooperate and you can't make it outside to grill/smoke. People need to see there are alternatives.
