• When outside temperature is cooler than 65°F (18°C) and/or altitude is above 3,500 feet (1067m),
additional cooking time may be required. To insure that meat is completely cooked use a meat
thermometer to test internal temperature.
• Opening smoker door during cooking process may extend cooking time due to heat loss.

LET’S GET STARTED!
• This is a slow smoker… allow suffi cient time for cooking. Smoker is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
• “Pre-season” smoker prior to fi rst use. See page 17.
• Pre-heat smoker for 30 to 45 minutes at max temperature before loading food.
• DO NOT cover racks with aluminum foil as this will not allow heat to circulate properly.
• 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, place pans on center of rack to ensure
even cooking. Never use glass, plastic or ceramic cookware in unit. Please see manual for
more detail.
• Close air damper on top of unit to retain moisture and heat. If cooking foods such as fi sh or
jerky, open air damper to release moisture.
• Store smoker in a dry area after use.
• Extreme cold temperatures may extend cooking times.
• CLEAN AFTER EVERY USE. This will extend the life of your smoker and prevent mold
and mildew.
ENJOY!
For rack supports, racks, water bowl and drip pan use a mild dish detergent. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
For wood chip bowl, 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 exterior of smoker simply wipe down with a damp cloth. Do not use a cleaning agent. Make sure to
dry thoroughly.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED AND COOL
TO THE TOUCH BEFORE CLEANING AND STORING.
