SMOKER OPERATION - READ & FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
7. For best results, rotate racks between the top and bottom positions during cooking.
8. Adjust smoker settings, regulator control knob and air dampers, to desired cooking temperature.
• Close all air dampers on unit to retain moisture and heat. If cooking foods such as fish or jerky,
open air dampers to release moisture.
9. If wood chips or chunks do not smoke on low setting, increase temperature to 275°. After 8 to 10 minutes or
when wood chips or chunks begin to smolder, reduce temperature to desired low setting.
10. Use caution when cooking on windy days to ensure the flame does not blow out. If you suspect or experience
a flame blow out, first open the door to check the flame and follow the IGNITION INSTRUCTIONS to re-ignite
the burner if needed. Adjust the regulator control knob setting for a higher flame to prevent further blow outs.
Never ignite smoker with the door closed.
11. Extreme cold temperatures may extend cooking times.
12. Once cooking is complete turn unit OFF, see IGNITION INSTRUCTIONS for turning off unit, remove the gas
cylinder and then follow CLEANING AND STORING INSTRUCTIONS. CLEAN AFTER EVERY USE. This
will extend the life of your smoker and prevent mold and mildew.
