Abstract
A smoker box and humidifier for a barbecue grill has a container body having a top and at least one and preferably a plurality of top opening at its top. Isolated compartments are provided in the container body. At least one of the isolated compartments is capable of holding wood chips or the like for producing a flavoring smoke, and at least one of compartments is capable of holding a liquid separate from but in close proximity to the wood chips or the like. The compartments in the container body are positioned such that, when the smoker box is heated, both the flavoring smoke and moistening vapors produced in the compartments of the container body circulate up through the top openings in the top of said container body. The container body can include a drawer with isolated compartments, which can be pulled out to replenish spent wood chips and fluids.
