Wood pellets are "real wood", only it's been compressed into pellets. But I guess you mean "naturally occurring pieces of wood." ;)
I was wondering though, what about getting a few of the pellets wet ahead of time, or else spraying a little water on the pellets once they're going? Would that produce more smoke? I know it works with wood chips; I soak some hickory or apple chips and throw them on top of burning charcoal and get plenty of smoke. So I was wondering if anyone had experimented and found a way to increase the smoke from pellets.
