Maintain a low heat fire for a long time. Control it with the amount 
of air you admit. Do not expose the pods to direct heat.

>Can I use brickets with a little smoking wood on top?

Yes.

>Can I cut the chiles in half lenth-wise to speed the process?

Yes, and finish them off in a food dehydrator if required.
