PRE-SEASON INSTRUCTIONS
PRE-SEASON SMOKER PRIOR TO FIRST USE.
Some smoke may appear during this time, this is normal.
1. Make sure water pan is in place with NO WATER.
2. Set controller to high and run unit for 3 hours.
3. To complete pre-seasoning, during last 45 minutes, add ½ cup of wood chips in wood chip bowl.
4. Shut down and allow to cool.
NOTE: Never add more than ½ cup (1 fi lled chip loader) at a time. Additional chips should not be
added until any previously added chips have ceased generating smoke.
• Maximum temperature is 275°F (135°C).
• Do NOT move unit across uneven surfaces.
• Wood chip bowl MUST be in place when using smoker. This minimizes the
chance of wood fl are ups.
• Wood chips must be used in order to produce smoke and create the smoke fl avor.
• Do not open smoker access door unless necessary. Opening smoker access door causes heat to
escape and may cause wood to fl are up. Closing the door will re-stabilize the temperature and stop
fl are up.
• Do not leave old wood ashes in the wood chip tray. Once ashes are cold, empty tray. Tray should be
cleaned out prior to, and after each use to prevent ash buildup.
• This is a smoker. There will be a lot of smoke produced when using wood chips. Smoke will escape
through seams and turn the inside of smoker black. This is normal.
• Opening smoker access door during cooking process may extend cooking time due to heat loss.
• When outside temperature is cooler than 65°F (18°C) and/or altitude is above 3,500 feet (1067m), addition
al cooking time may be required. To insure that meat is completely cooked use a meat thermometer to test
internal temperature.
