I have a very simple gas BBQ grill, so of course it does not have a smoker box &#8211; so I usually just ignored those recipes.  But a week or two ago, I came across a smoker box at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marga.org\/food\/blog\/grocery_outlet\/\">Grocery Outlet<\/a> and I figured, why not give it a try?  The box is a rectangular metal box with a metal lid that has holes in it.  You put it on top of the burning element, under the grill.<br \/>\nI first tried it last week when I made <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epicurious.com\/recipes\/food\/views\/Wood-Smoked-Tri-Tip-with-Sicilian-Herb-Sauce-238793\">Smoked Tri Tip with Sicilian Herb Sauce<\/a> for a small BBQ that I threw.

Even Mike was surprised.<br \/>\nI was also quite happy about how easy the whole process was.  I&#8217;ll be experimenting with other meats in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the years I have come across recipes that called for smoking whatever you were grilling by putting wood chips in the BBQ grill&#8217;s smoker box.
