Two weber grease liners cover 25% of the cooking surface between the grates and flavorizers Sure. Smoking a brisket: https://imgur.com/a/nM4ywJE 8 pans in that pic. For regular grilling, I remove 6 pans, replace the other grate (not shown), and leave just the two pans with wood chips on the right most side. EDIT: My 28-1/2 year old Genesis it sits right now with all its peeling creosote 😉 https://imgur.com/a/NfRg7fm Chips are whatever I have on hand leftover from my last smoke: hickory & mesquite are stronger flavor/aroma than the usual Apple/Pecan. I get 2lb bags of these small chips at Walmart for $4 each. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Western-Smokin-Chips-Hickory/23591311 One bag will fill about 4-6 trays to the top. I fill the 2 trays maybe 1/3 when doing mid-week burgers/steaks/dogs. When smoking I fill them full and add lit briquettes to fire them off (which you can see in the brisket pic, which was a mid-cook reload).
