Additional Tips

Season food with desired spices, herbs, rubs
or sauces, prior to following these basic steps.
Cook times will vary based on ambient temperature
and desired meat temperature.
Smoking Ribs:
When smoking ribs, follow the 3-2-1 rule:
3 hours using "SMOKE" setting (ribs unwrapped)
2 hours at 225F (ribs wrapped in tin foil)
1+ hours to "set" with favorite sauce (Sauce is optional but tin-foil should be removed)
Smoking Pork Butt/Shoulder:
Allow at least 1.5 hours of cook time per pound at 225F.
Set the temperature dial to "Smoke" for at least 5 minutes, then set the temperature to 225F and
allow the unit to pre-heat for at least 15 minutes.
Place the meat inside the unit and cook for 3 hours. Spray the meat with water or apple juice
every hour to keep the meat moist.
Place the meat onto an aluminum baking sheet for the remaining cook time. Use a meat probe to
determine when the meat has reached its desired temperature. Refer to Suggested Smoking and
Meat Temperatures on this page and refer to the Meat Probe section on Page 24 for attaching the
probe and locating the temperature setting on the control panel display.
