CREATING A BAR-B-QUE OUT OF A GAS GRILL

Oh, the great fight. How to get the flavor of bar-b-que (charcoal/wood) from a gas grill, which has the speed and convenience. Smoke boxes and wood chips in the grill do work, though care has to be taken not to over-smoke the food, which will leave the meat bitter.
Couple of tricks. Start off the grill hot with the smoke box loaded with your wood chips in place. Once the wood chips start to smoke, drop the meat on above the smoke box, turn the flames to their lowest setting and let it cook slow. Do not turn the meat (the smoke crust will form on the top side of the meat, while a sear will develop on the bottom).
Experiment to learn your grill.
