Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor cooking
experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria, follow these four basic
steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water before and
after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-toeat foods to avoid cross
contamination.
Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria.
Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
How To Tell If Meat Is Cooked Thoroughly
- Meat and poultry cooked in the appliance often browns very fast on the outside. Use only thawed meat and a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for visual signs of doneness.
- We recommend food to be at least 4.4°C before cooking in your appliance.
- Whole poultry should reach 74° C. Juices should run clear and flesh should not be pink.
- Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and pork chops can be cooked to 71° C.
- NEVER partially cook meat or poultry and finish cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Cleaning your smoker:
Excess build up of burned grease and food particles will reduce the
smoker’s cooking performance. To obtain optimum performance:
- Clean the interior and exterior at least once a season, more often with heavy use.
- Best results are obtained by brushing particle buildup downward toward the bottom of smoker.
- Using a mild detergent or hot soapy water, moderately scrub interior surfaces of the smoker with a plastic or bristle brush.

Using the Smoker Box:
The smoker box is what will enable you to add smoke flavor to your foods.
Simply fill the smoker box with wood chips to the desired level and slide it
into place prior to preheating the smoker. The smoker box can be filled to
varied levels to accommodate short and long cooks. There are many wood chip
types that result in different flavors. For a chart listing estimated wood chip
level to cook time ratios and smoke flavor details, please see grilling guide.
NOTE:
- The smoker box is designed for wood chips or pellets only, do not use wood chunks.
- Always operate smoker with smoker box in place regardless of whether or not you use wood chips. Never remove or refill the smoker box during cooking
Using the Water Pan:
Your appliance comes equipped with a water pan. The water pan can be used to
keep meat moist while cooking. To use, fill the water pan with warm water (cold
water can bring down the temp of the cooker) to the Max Water mark and slide
into place. Do not overfill the water pan.
NOTE:
- Using water is not required for smoking.
- Always operate (including preheating) smoker with water pan in place regardless of whether or not you use water. Never remove the water pan during cooking.
- If water pan needs to be refilled during cooking, always fill through the hole in the drip pan assembly. Care should be taken when refilling water pan to avoid having any liquid coming in contact with the heating element. Serious damage to the heating element could result, including flare ups and electrical failure.
