Before you cook food in your smoker, it is important to "season" your smoker. Seasoning
seals the paint and interior of your smoker to enhance flavoring, durability, and overall
performance. This is also referred to as the "break-in" process.
If your smoker requires any touch-up paint on the inside of the cabinet, the only time you
should apply paint to the inside is before the seasoning process. Paint should not be
applied to the interior of your smoker after your smoker has been used. Paint toxins may
contaminate your food. However, if paint becomes necessary after use, see the section in
this manual concerning After Use Care and Maintenance.
To season your smoker, simply use it as you normally would; only do not cook any food.
You will need to follow all of the operating procedures in the next few sections of this
manual.
Using your desired flavoring woods and marinades, burn your smoker at low temperature
(around 125°F [50°C]) for 45-60 minutes. Let the smoker cool, and clean out the used water
and wood.
Once seasoning is complete, your smoker's interior will have a durable, seasoned coating.

To add water before cooking, simply remove the water pan and fill it with water up to 1"
(2.5cm) below the rim. Then replace the pan to the bottom of the rack.
To add water while the smoker is hot, DO NOT pull the water pan out beyond the rack.
Cooking Tips:
Line the water pan with aluminum foil before each use. This will make it easy to clean
and help your water pan last longer.
To make adding water easier and safer, use a clean watering can with a long spout.

To add wood chips before cooking, simply place a small amount of wood chips in the pan
with your choice of flavoring hardwood chips. The amount and type of wood you use is
entirely up to you.
To add wood chips while cooking, open the bottom smoker door and place additional
wood chips into wood chip pan. The wood chip pan should sit close to the burner. It's
location can be raised up/down by changing the wire brackets. It is not recommended to
remove the wood chip pan while the smoker is in operation.
