SUGGESTED SMOKING AND MEAT TEMPERATURES
Smoking Temperatures
Accurate smoking temperatures are critical for safely cooking food when meat probes are not
available. Please understand that using the factory installed temperature gauge is an acceptable
tool for smoking food; but it's not always the ideal means of measuring the most accurate smoking
temperature because internal smoker temperatures can vary between the top and bottom cooking
grates. Also keep in mind that the probes used on most gauges are designed to measure the
temperature at the tip of the temperature probe and not the overall temperature of the smoker.
Alternatively, it is recommended that users either purchase an aftermarket, oven-ready temperature
gauge, or a meat thermometer. Meat thermometers are the most effective way of determining when
the food is cooked to the minimum temperature required for safe consumption.
Please refer to the chart below for cooking temps.
