food slightly off the surface allowing smoke and air to circulate. When placing Evo’s hood over the food and wood chips you
create “hot smoke,” since the food is being cooked and smoked simultaneously. Placing the chips onto one heat zone and the
food onto the other heat zone allows you to control the smoke and cooking temperature independently. Items that take longer
to cook, such as pork ribs, require you add more chips as the old chips burn out. When smoking ribs or other fatty foods, you
may want to fashion an aluminum foil pan underneath to speed up the cleaning process. You may also like to try using cedar
planks on the cook surface which provides an excellent rich smoke for smoking fi sh such as salmon.
Steaming
The process of steaming on the Evo grill involves applying water directly to the hot cook surface while you are cooking and
containing the water as it turns to steam. You can use Evo’s hood if you intend to steam everything on the cook surface,
or to set up individual steam areas we recommend using a pot cover. As an example, you may want to individually steam
vegetables, while simultaneously searing salmon.
Roasting and Baking
You can roast meats and vegetables under Evo’s hood. Use the front panel control knobs to control roasting temperature.
Meats are usually seared on all sides before roasting. Searing creates a nice presentation and adds fl avor. When roasting,
place the seared meats, fi sh, poultry or vegetables either on a baking rack placed on the cook surface or directly on the cook
surface. We recommend a stainless steel baking rack designed for cooling cookies and cakes. Baking racks are relatively
inexpensive and can be found in the cookware department of most supermarkets or kitchen supply stores. A baking rack is
useful because it keeps the bottom-side of foods above the cook surface and allows uniform cooking. Placing food directly on
the cook-surface works best for smaller cuts of meat or foods that are only roasted for a few minutes.
Making Flatbreads, Crepes and Tortillas
Flatbreads, crepes and tortillas are easy to make and are a great accompaniment to many foods. The cook surface is ideal for
these items because it provides even heat over the entire surface.
Enjoy your Evo!
Cheers!
