OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Adding water and wood to the smoker
1. Add wood to wood chip box prior to placing water pan/wood chip box tray in the smoker. Make sure
not to overfill the box with wood and that the wood chip box lid properly fits.
NOTE: The amount and type of wood used is entirely up to you. It is recommended to start with
small amounts of wood initially.
2. Place the water pan/wood chip box tray in the smoker and then add water to water pan. Fill up to
1 in. below the rim. Close the door.
3. Then set the temperature controller to your desired setting (LOW/MED/HIGH) and adjust
accordingly until the temperature on the temperature gauge reaches the desired temperature.
Checking water and wood during operation
• To check the water while the smoker is in operation and HOT, SLOWLY open the door to allow the
built up heat and smoke to escape. Replenish water as need – BE CAREFUL NOT to touch any
part of the interior of the cabinet or door. Then SLOWLY and CAREFULLY close the smoker door.
• To check the wood while the smoker is in operation and HOT, SLOWLY open the door to allow the
built up heat and smoke to escape. Using an oven mitt or other heat-protection glove, CAREFULLY
remove the wood chip box lid. Once the lid is open, using a long-handled utensil, stir the remaining
wood ashes flat and carefully add wood. BE CAREFUL NOT to touch any part of the interior of the
cabinet or door. Again using an oven mitt or other heat-protection glove, CAREFULLY reposition the
wood chip box lid to its correct position. Then SLOWLY and CAREFULLY close the smoker door.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: Before use, clean and inspect the entire smoker.
• Place and fill the wood chip box with flavoring wood chips and place the water pan/wood chip box
tray in the appropriate location of the smoker as instructed in the assembly section of this instruction
manual. The amount and type of wood(s) you use is entirely up to you. Checking and adding wood
to the wood chip box is covered on page 9 of this manual.
• Place the water pan/wood chip box tray in the appropriate location of the smoker as instructed in the
assembly instructions then carefully fill the water pan with water (or similar liquid like beer or apple
juice) up to 1 in. below the water pan rim. DO NOT overfill or allow water to overflow from the water
pan. Checking and adding water to the water pan is covered on page 9 of this manual.
• Insert or adjust the smoking racks to the desired positions. For better access to the food with tongs
or spatulas:
1. Use only the smoking racks needed for your smoking.
2. Be sure the grids of the smoking racks run front-to-back as shown in the assembly section.
Smoking tip: Coating the smoking rack(s) with cooking oil or spray before placing meat will help
in after-use clean up.
• Place the food on the smoking racks in a single layer with space between each piece. This will allow
smoke and hot moisture to circulate evenly around the food pieces.
