For some reason this bag I have just has a tremendous smoke flavor. Anybody else experience this with some of their lump before?

I've actually not tried the WW...but are you sure the egg doesn't have any air flow issues? Maybe remove the guts and make sure there is no ash build up. On a couple of occasions I have found an airflow issue to cause the lump to "smolder" more than usual.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

If you use wood chunks in a prior cook and they don't fully burn off, they could smolder the next cook...Atlanta suburbs

NO this has been the entire bag of WGWW not just one issue. My egg is pretty constantly cleaned on a regular basis with a shop vac so ash buildup is never really a problem.Large BGE

I have used five different manufacturer's lump and they seem to be different and burn different at times. Couple of weeks ago i lit my egg after loading it with some RO and it had a piece of "fat lighter"(or something very similar) in it. It started on fire and burnt for about fifteen minutes. We have to realize that the manufacturers produce dump truck loads of this at a time in giant kilns that have stone insulated walls. So there will be a rock or two at times, or a strange piece of wood, bolts, maybe some lump that refuses to burn!! I have come across bags of lump that was made from pieces of plywood!! I use mainly RO because it has a close by "source" and is priced reasonably.
