When you see smoke then it’s time to turn down the burners and reduce the temperature to about 435˚F (225˚C) to 480˚F or (250˚C). You can place the smoker either on the grate or below it. The box should be as close to the heat source as possible, so if you’re using a gas grill then place it right above the burners. Controlling the temperature of a gas grill is not a matter of opening and closing vents, it’s simply a matter of turning knobs. In most cases you will adjust one or two of the main burners during cooking, though if you want to smoke at very low temperatures (below 250°F), turn off all of the main burners and use just the dedicated burner under the smoker box for the heat.

When they are fully lit, pour all of the charcoal on one side of the cooking grate (if desired, use a charcoal basket, which holds the coals close together so they burn more slowly) and place a large disposable foil pan on the other side.

The wood chips themselves can’t actually start burning, thus releasing their flavory goodness, until all the water has been evaporated out. That’s right, what you are seeing initially is steam, not smoke. Keep your electric barbecue looking smart with a Weber cleaning kit and help protect the parts in storage with a fitted bbq cover.
