• Do not use wood pellets.
• Food needs to be in the center of smoking racks. This allows food drippings to go into the water bowl.
•  Do not leave old wood or ashes in the flame disk bowl/woodchip tray/bowl. Once ashes are cold, empty bowl/tray. Bowl/tray should be cleaned out prior to, and after each use to prevent ash and residue buildup.
• Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a non-combustible container.
• Do not store unit with HOT ashes inside unit.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SMOKER OPERATION – READ & FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

GETTING STARTED

• Pre-season unit prior to first use. See PRE-SEASON INSTRUCTIONS.
• Before starting the unit, see ADDING WOOD CHIPS OR ADDING WOOD CHUNKS.
• This smoker is equipped with door stops that will hold the door open during loading and unloading of food.
• This smoker is calibrated to be within +/- 25°F of each set point. Depending on the amount of food in the smoker and the outside environment a slight adjustment may be needed to reach the exact temperature desired.
  CAUTION – All surfaces are HOT and may cause burns. Use protective gloves or long, sturdy cooking tools when loading/ unloading food or racks, and when adding wood chips or water.

PRE- SEASON INSTRUCTIONS
Curing your smoker will rid the unit of chemicals and oils left over by the manufacturing process allowing them to burn off.
PRE-SEASON SMOKER PRIOR TO FIRST USE.

1. Perform soapy water test, see SOAPY WATER TEST WARNINGS AND PROCEDURES.
2. Using a napkin or cloth, rub a light coat of cooking oil on smoking racks and inside smoker door. Make sure water pan is in place with NO WATER.
3. Start smoker, set to 350°F (177°C) and let the smoker burn for about 1 hour.
4. Allow unit to cool COMPLETELY.
5. Reapply light coat of cooking oil on smoking racks and inside of smoker door.
6. Restart smoker and burn for 20 minutes.
   • Cure your smoker periodically to prevent excessive rust.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. To start smoker see IGNITION INSTRUCTIONS.

2. With protective gloves on, place water bowl in position. Pour 1 inch of water, juice, or vinegar into water bowl. This will add flavor and moisture to food and prevent it from drying out.

3. DO NOT cover racks with aluminum foil as this will not allow heat to circulate properly.

4. ADDING WOOD CHIPS: Pre-heat smoker to desired temperature for approximately 20 minutes. After unit has reached desired temperature, place up to 1 cup (0.24l) of wood chips in wood chip tray.
   ADDING WOOD CHUNKS: Before pre-heating smoker, place up to 1 cup (0.24l) of wood chunks in wood chip tray, then pre-heat smoker to desired temperature for approximately 20 minutes. Wood chip tray may not close fully when using wood chunks.
   • You may use dry or pre-soaked wood chips or chunks in your smoker. Dry chips or chunks will burn faster and produce more intense smoke. Chips or chunks pre-soaked in water (for approximately 30 minutes) will burn slower and produce a less intense smoke.
   • DO NOT ADD MORE THAN 1 CUP (0.24l) OF WOOD CHIPS OR CHUNKS AT A TIME. Never use wood pellets.
   • Place additional wood chips or chunks in smoker as needed to achieve desired smoke flavor.
   • Wood chips or chunks must be used in order to produce smoke and create the smoke flavor.

5. Place food in the smoker, position on the center of the smoking rack.

6. DO NOT overload smoker with food. Extra large amounts of food may trap heat, extend cooking time and cause uneven cooking. Leave space between food on racks and smoker sides to ensure proper heat circulation. If utilizing cooking pans, be sure pans do not cover more than 75% of the rack space and place pans on center of rack to ensure even cooking.

7. When smoking one or two items, use top two racks for best results.

8. Adjust smoker settings, control knob and air damper, to desired cooking temperature.
   • Close air damper on unit to retain moisture and heat. If cooking foods such as fish or jerky, open air damper to release moisture.

9. If wood chips or chunks do not smoke on low setting, open bottom door slightly for approximately 2 minutes. This will allow the cabinet temperature to fall which will cause the burner to adjust to a larger flame and will begin the smoking process.

10. Use caution when cooking on windy days to ensure the flame does not blow out. If you suspect or experience a flame blow out, first open the door to check the flame and follow the IGNITION INSTRUCTIONS to re-ignite the burner if needed. Adjust the smoker control knob setting for a higher flame to prevent further blow outs. Never ignite smoker with the door closed.

11. Extreme cold temperatures may extend cooking times.

12. Once cooking is complete turn unit OFF, see IGNITION INSTRUCTIONS for turning off unit, remove the gas cylinder and then follow CLEANING and STORING INSTRUCTIONS. CLEAN AFTER EVERY USE. This will extend the life of your smoker and prevent mold and mildew.

CLEANING and STORING INSTRUCTIONS

• ALWAYS MAKE SURE UNIT IS COOL TO THE TOUCH BEFORE CLEANING AND STORING.
• Be sure to clean smoker after each use. Make sure the gas cylinder has been turned off and removed.
• For rack supports, racks, water bowl, and drip pan use a mild dish detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• For wood chip tray clean frequently to remove ash build up, residue and dust.
• Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a non-combustible container.
• For the interior, exterior and door seal of the unit simply wipe down with a damp cloth after each use to keep unit in proper working condition. Do not use a cleaning agent. Make sure to dry thoroughly.
• After cleaning, store smoker in a covered and DRY AREA.
• Store only when fire is completely out and all surfaces are cold.
• When not in frequent use and using a cover, remember to check your smoker periodically to avoid possible rust and corrosion due to moisture buildup.

FAQ

• Was the temperature setting of the unit adjusted from a higher setting to a lower setting? For example, was the unit at 275 and changed to 225?

If yes, was the unit allowed to stabilize for 5 minutes at the new temperature setting before opening/closing the door(s)? If no, allow the unit to stabilize between set point changes for 5 minutes before opening and closing the door(s). During this transition period the flame is vulnurable to potential blow outs, under certain conditions, because the pressure inside the burner is reduced while the temperature sensor is adjusting to the lower set point.

• Is the vent open?

If no, open the vent to allow more heat to exit the unit. This will cause the unit to require more heat input to maintain its set point which will cause the unit to increase the flame height creating a stronger flame.

• Is the water bowl filled?

If no, fill the water bowl. This will cause the unit to require more heat input to maintain its set point which will cause the unit to increase the flame height creating a stronger flame.

• Is outside wind greater than 5mph?

If yes, and all the above solutions did not improve the performance, raise the set point of the unit in order to cook in those conditions.
