bristle brush is used to clean any of the smoker cooking
surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking
surfaces prior to cooking. It is not recommended to clean
cooking surfaces while smoker is hot.
•

the smoker is not designed for charcoal. The fire will
create an unsafe condition and damage the smoker.
Wood chips must be used to create a smoked flavor.
