I'm a bit late to the grill party……but here is the only way to cook with 100% wood:

You can cook an entire meal on just a couple of small blocks of hardwood.  It does it by using a forced air system that works great.  Zero to 750 degrees in about 2 minutes…..really!  Only a tiny bit of ash will remain.

They make a couple different size grills, all of which would work whilst camping.

This is the best grill I have ever had.  Just watch the stainless steel edges when cleaning.  They are sharp as razors at first.

No fake charcoal fumes…just flavor enhancing hard wood.  And made in Canada for all you north-centric folks!  Took several years before they sold them south of the border.

Pmail if you want additional endorsement.

Given that they were designed to burn corn cobs, I would think they would
work with wood. I have always wanted to try wood, and may be a chance to
this weekend. I have found that the hotter you want the fire, the more fuel
you need to use, up to 14 briquettes from the recommended 8.

You do need to make it as hot as possible when baking, and that means not
taking the cover off any more than is necessary.

I have made 3/4 in thick (that's how deep the pan is) cornbread before, and
it helps if you flip it. Didn't take too long, though.
