I actually get those mini rectangle aluminum pans (you get 2-4 in a pack, and they're about 6 inches long, 4 inches wide, 1 inch deep) and put my wood chips in those, cover with foil, poke holes in foil to allow steam to escape, then sit between the flame burners and let the grill heat up for 15 minutes before cooking on it. The grill makes enough heat that the bottom of the grill is as hot as the lava bricks get and you get a nice smoke going.
I also use the bigger foil pans filled with water; with the flavor packs on the heat source when I want to smoke larger cuts of meat like roasts or turkeys. Either way; you will not be disappointed!
