The unburnt wood chips have oils and volatiles that are given off as the degrade from the heat of the coals on the top tray. the charcoal has already lost these elements, so I think they will get hot but not to the point of smouldering, plus they have nothing left to evaporate, so suspect they won't deliver anything. I might try it for a laugh but right now! Thanks for the thought though.
