Does anyone else bring a small smoker when you overland?

I bring this little Chargriller Akorn Jr. It's quite small, about a 14" grill.
It's only enough for a small family at most. I could fit about 5 chicken thighs, or 3 good size steaks, or a Cornish game hen.
But i love bringing this thing.

I've joked and said I'd bring a trailer bbq smoker!

I bring my mini Webber along with some hardwood chunks (Oak) soak them in water an hour before throwing them on a softwood kindled fire, smokes / cooks the heck out of anything.

I do that as well.
My mons property has a lot of oak trees and large limbs fall every winter storm, and no shortage of oak firewood.
I soak smaller pieces, and use them for the smoker.

A little Coastal Salish trick I've learnt over the years. Next time you are BBQ'ing fish (salmon)...put some wet Fir bark inside your gas barbie and cover her up. Will be the best darn fish you ever cooked.
