ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION
-
FIRST, GET A HELPER! This unit is heavy and requires a second person for lifting and moving. NEXT, pick a suitable location to work. Open the carton and slit the corners so that the carton lays flat. This will give you a protective work surface during assembly.
TO BEGIN ASSEMBLY, build two leg assemblies by sliding the long leg sections into the short leg sections. -
Attach leg braces to the outside of one leg assembly using #10-24×1-3/4” screws and #10-24 flange nuts. Make sure the slotted (oval) hole is toward the bottom of the leg. DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN screws until Step 6 is complete.
-
Lay the leg assembly on its side with leg braces pointing upward. Insert the wood rack hooks into leg holes and swing the rack upward, parallel to the leg braces.
-
With the aid of a helper, place leg holes of the remaining leg assembly over wood rack hooks and rotate the leg assembly until it meets the leg braces. Make sure both short legs are at one end of the rack and both long legs at the other end. Attach to leg braces using #10-24×1-3/4” screws and #10-24 flange nuts. DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN screws until Step 8 is complete.
-
Insert a cotter pin into the hole at one end of the axle and bend the ends of the pin back so that it cannot be removed. Slide a wheel onto the axle. Slide the axle through the holes at the ends of the short legs. Slide the remaining wheel onto the axle and secure it with the remaining cotter pin.
-

WARNING
- MOST SURFACES ON THIS UNIT ARE HOT WHEN IN USE.
- USE EXTREME CAUTION. KEEP OTHERS AWAY FROM UNIT.
- ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING TO PREVENT INJURY.
Preparing and Using Your Silver Smoker
Before cooking with your Silver Smoker, the following steps should be closely followed to both cure the finish and season the interior steel. Failure to properly follow these steps may damage the finish and/or impart metallic flavors to your first foods.
- Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.
- Build a small fire on the fire grate, being sure not to lay coals against the walls.
- Close door. (Position butterfly damper and smokestack damper approximately at one-quarter open.) This burn should be sustained for at least two hours, the longer the better. Then, begin increasing the temperature by opening the butterfly damper and smokestack damper halfway and adding more charcoal. Your Silver Smoker is now ready for use.
Rust can appear on the inside of your smoker. Maintaining a light coat of vegetable oil on interior surfaces will aid in the protection of your unit. The exterior surfaces of the smoker may need an occasional touch-up. We recommend the use of a commercially available black high-temperature spray paint. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE UNIT!
GRILLING
Wood is recommended, however, charcoal or a combination of both may be used as
the fuel source for grilling, with the fuel source placed and ignited on the
fire grate. Do not build too large of a fire. We recommend starting a fire
with no more than 4 pounds of charcoal (approximately 60 briquets) and adding
more as needed during cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, place the
cooking grills in the smoker. Failure to read and follow instructions for
lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and/or property
damage.
GRILL MAINTENANCE
The frequency of cleanup is determined by how much your smoker is used. Make
sure the coals are completely extinguished before cleaning the inside of the
smoker. Inside surfaces may be cleaned with a strong solution of detergent and
water applied with a scrub brush. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air
dry before using again. If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill
cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on the cooking surfaces
before grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while the
grill is hot.
SMOKING AND SLOW COOKING
If using the Silver Smoker as a smoker or slow cooker, remove the cooking
grill from the firebox and build your fire on top of the fire grate in the
firebox. Either charcoal or wood may be used, but wood is the recommended fuel
for its rate of burn and the flavor it imparts to the food being cooked. Most
seasoned hardwoods are good for smoking such as hickory, mesquite, pecan, oak,
and many other fruit woods. The firebox will accommodate most split fireplace-
size logs (16”). The bark should be avoided or burned off first as it contains
a high acid content and imparts an acrid flavor.
After allowing the fire to burn down, close the doors and control the temperature and smoke with the dampers located on the firebox and atop the smokestack. Smoke is contained within the chambers, which will reduce burn while imparting more smoke flavor. Do not operate the Silver Smoker with temperatures exceeding 450 degrees in the smoker chamber. Place the food in the smoker chamber and monitor the temperature. Cooking and smoking are taking place using indirect heat. There is no need to worry about a grease fire flare-up ruining the food. Do not place food within 6” of the opening from the firebox into the smoker chamber. A general rule of thumb for cooking is about 1 hour per pound for smoking large cuts of meat. Refer to a cookbook for specific cuts of meat. Limit the number of times you open the smoker chamber door as this will allow heat to escape and extend the cooking time.
HELPFUL HINTS
- If food seems to be getting too smoky or brown before the cooking time is finished, cover it loosely with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Remove the ash after each use.
- Covered side dishes can be warmed in a smoker chamber.
- To prevent flare-ups, brush meat lightly with oil before grilling.
- Keep a small squirt bottle of water handy for grilling flare-ups.
