I am curious, and would like to try her method in a crockpot, an interesting experiment. If you had a few chips in the bottom of the crockpot and baked potatoes, would they taste like campfire cooked potatoes?

I wonder if you put soaked, charred pieces of apple or mesquite in a foil packet in an oven with your food, would that give you a smoky flavor? hmmmm, interesting question...

I don’t think that I would like the charred wood, as it tends to stink when wet.

But I would soak the fresh chips in water, make a foil packet, with slits and let the steam give added taste......LOL, might even be re=usable.

If the wood was high resin or oil containing, there would be a fire hazard. I think/fear.
