Get an electric 5th burner, and a cast iron wood chip smoker box from home depot. Put the burner in your smoker, set it to high, put the chip box on it, fill it with wood chips, run the power cord out of the smoker to a power strip and turn it on. Every now and then stir the chips or add new ones as necessary.

Or, find an old grill and go buy a new soldering iron...
I took an old 18" Webber that the rotating vents had been torn away on, sealed the holes with metal ducting tape, bought a new soldering iron, jammed it in an old tin can, filled it with chips and toss it on the lower grate. Every 20 minutes or so, open the lid, lift out the grate with the food, shake the can to get new wood in contact with the iron and put everything back. Used a new Webber SP-23L iron.

You do this in a cardboard or plastic box if you wanted to, just have to keep the hot can insulated from the box or it'll melt it / burn it. (Old coffee cups work well for that.)
