Hmmm... From the research on electric smokers, you only need a very small amount of wood to get great results. I only use 2-3 ounces of chips, if that, to smoke 2 pork butts (and less wood if I smoke something smaller). I'd try running enough pucks for 1 hour's worth of smoke, should be plenty, IMO. Smoking itslef takes place rather early, you then cook through for the remainder of the time?

I've done cold smoking in mine and it really takes about 30 minutes and this with a special plate sitting between the smoking element and food (only allowing smoke through for the most part). So, smoking itslef does not take much time.
