Submerge wood chips in water; weight with a board or plate. Soak chips for 30 minutes. Drain. Combine brown sugar, salt, garlic powder, chili powder, and black pepper, stirring well. Rub spice mixture evenly over both sides of pork shoulder. Cover loosely with foil; let pork stand at room temperature for 1 hour.

Set aside grill rack. Prepare grill for indirect grilling, heating one side to high and leaving one side with no heat. Pierce bottom of a disposable aluminum foil pan several times with the tip of a knife. Place pan on heat element or over coals; add 1 cup soaked wood chips to pan. Place another disposable aluminum foil pan (do not pierce pan) on unheated side of grill. Pour 2 cups water into unpierced pan. Let chips stand for 5 minutes or until smoking; reduce heat to medium-low.
