Prepare the Grill
If using wood chips for smoking, soak them in water for 30 minutes. Preheat your grill to high heat. If you're using a charcoal grill, add the soaked wood chips directly onto the coals. For a gas grill, place the wood chips in a smoker box or wrap them in aluminum foil and poke holes to allow smoke to escape.
