Yes, you can use your grill as a smoker. There are a few things to keep in mind when smoking on a grill, such as:
1. Choose the right type of wood for smoking. Softer woods like hickory or oak work well for smoking meats. Harder woods like mesquite or apple should be avoided as they can make the meat too smoky.
2. Soak your wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before using them. This will help to prevent them from burning up too quickly on the grill.
3. Set up your grill for indirect heat by turning on only one side of the burners and placing the food on the opposite side. This will help to prevent flare-ups and ensure that the food cooks evenly.
4. Place a foil-lined drip pan underneath the grates to catch any drippings from the food above. This will also help to prevent flare-ups caused by dripping fat igniting on the hot coals below.
5 Keep an eye on the temperature of your grill and adjust accordingly throughout cooking time. The ideal temperature range for smoking meats is between 225-250 degrees Fahrenheit
