Default Q-usetion about smoking on a grill

Hi.

I'm pretty new here, so please bear with me if I seem dumb. I just got
a GE Monogram 48" gas grill. I'll be building it in soon, so while I
wait I am thinking (sometimes a bad thing). The grill has a 5,000 btu
smoker burner and tray. Any ideas as to how hot that would make the
inside of the cooking chamber if I wanted to smoke low and slow?

I realize that I can turn the knob up or down, but let's say it's 85
outside, how hot would a 5,000 bto burner make it inside? I'm just
trying to figure out if I can find a balance of hot enough flame to
smoke the wood but low enough temperature that I can go for a long
cook.

Thanks.
