caution. Keep others away from unit Always wear protective
clothing to prevent injury. Keep children and pets away. Do
not move this unit during operation. Never substitute
gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for charcoal starter. In some

WARNING
PREPARING TO USE YOUR SMOKER
Before cooking with your 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.
1. Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable
cooking oil.
2. Build a small fire on the fire grate or pan, being sure not to lay coals
against the walls.
3. Close door. (Position 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
temperature by opening the damper and smokestack damper halfway and adding more charcoal. Your smoker is now ready for use.
After a charcoal fire appears extinguished, unconsumed
embers can retain heat for up to 24 hours, and if exposed to
fresh air, can burst into flame unexpectedly. Any such embers
outside the firebox of the grill pose a fire hazard and can
ignite combustible surfaces such as wooden decks.
CAUTION
For residential use only. Do not use for commercial cooking.
WARNING
FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
FOR LIGHTING CHARCOAL MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY AND OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
ALWAYS USE CAUTION WHEN HANDLING HOT
COALS TO PREVENT INJURY.
ALWAYS LIGHT THE FIRE WITH THE GRILL LID OPEN.
WARNING
Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface.
Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch
fire or sources of ignition such as pilot lights on
water heaters, live electrical appliances, etc.
Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use
in enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch,
covered patio, or under an overhead structure of
any kind.

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.
Exterior surfaces of smoker may need occasional touch up. We
recommend the use of a commercially available black high temperature
spray paint. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE UNIT !
SMOKER MAINTENANCE
Frequency of clean up is determined by how often the grill is used.
Make sure coals are completely extinguished before cleaning inside of
the unit. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before using
again. Wipe out the interior of the unit with a cloth or paper towels.
When finished cooking, and the unit has adequately cooled, clean out
all remaining ashes. Ashes collect moisture, which can lead to
premature rusting and decay. Periodically coating the interior surfaces
with vegetable oil will aid in the protection of your unit. Also, occasional
touch up of the exterior paint will be required. Black, high-temperature
spray paint is recommended. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE
UNIT.
Cooking Surface: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill
cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces
prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while
grill is hot.
COOKING TIPS
Building Your Fire
1. Stack charcoal briquettes or wood into a pyramid-shaped pile on top
of the charcoal grate or ash pan. We recommend using 3 pounds
(approximately 45 briquettes) to start your fire, adding more as
needed.
2. If using lighter fluid, saturate the charcoal briquettes with lighter fluid
and let it soak in for approximately 5 minutes. If using a chimney
starter, electric starter, or other type of fire starter, light your fire
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
3. Always light the fire with the cooking chamber and firebox lids open.
Leave lid open until briquettes are fully lit. Failure to do this could
trap fumes from charcoal lighter fluid in grill and may result in a flash
fire when lid is opened.
4. Never add charcoal lighter fluid to hot or warm coals as flashbacks
may occur causing injury.
5. You are ready to begin cooking when the pile of briquettes ashes
over and produces a red glow (approximately 12 – 15 minutes).
6. Depending on your cooking method, either leave the briquettes in a
pile or spread evenly across the charcoal grate using a long-handled
poker.
7. Avoid laying coals on smoker walls.

SMOKING AND SLOW COOKING
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 it’s 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. 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 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. A general
rule of thumb for cooking is about 1 hour per pound for smoking
large cuts of meat. Refer to a cook book 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.
SMOKING WITH WOOD CHIPS/WOOD CHUNKS
For a more robust smoke flavor while using charcoal briquettes
or lump charcoal, try adding wood chips or several wood chunks
to the fire. Wood chunks are available in a variety of natural
flavors, and can be used alone or in addition to charcoal. As a
general rule, any hardwood that bears a fruit or nut is suitable for
cooking. However, different woods have very different tastes.
Experiment with different woods to determine your personal
favorite, and always use well-seasoned wood. Green or fresh-cut
wood can turn food black, and tastes bitter.
Our Recommendations:
Chicken - Alder, Apple, Hickory, Mesquite
Beef - Hickory, Mesquite, Oak
Pork - Fruitwoods, Hickory, Oak
Lamb - Fruitwoods, Mesquite
Veal - Fruitwoods, Grapevines
Seafood - Alder, Mesquite
Vegetables – Mesquite
Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor
cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria,
follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water
before and after handling raw meat.
Separate: Separate raw meats from ready-to-eat foods to avoid
cross contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils when
removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a
thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
Cooking on your new grill is a hands-on experience, and it is
recommended to remain outside with your grill while cooking.
Grilling can be affected by many external conditions. In cold
weather, you will need more heat to reach an ideal cooking
temperature, and grilling may take longer. The meat's internal
temperature and thickness can also affect cooking times. Cold
and thicker meats will take longer to cook.
Internal Meat Temperatures
Meat cooked on a grill often browns very fast on the outside.
Therefore, use a meat thermometer to ensure it has reached
safe internal temperatures.

GRILLING
Successful charcoal grilling depends on a good fire. The general rule
for knowing when your coals are ready for grilling is to make sure that
80 percent or more of the coals are ashy gray. Using caution, arrange
the hot coals on your charcoal grate based on your desired method of
cooking. Here are a few steps you can take to adjust the temperature
of your fire:
Ÿ If it is too hot, spread the coals out a bit more, which makes the fire
less intense.
Ÿ Avoid laying the coals on the walls of the smoker.
Ÿ Partially close the vents in the grill, which reduces the amount of
oxygen that feeds the fire.
Ÿ In the event of a severe flare-up, spray the flames with water from a
squirt bottle. Be careful, spraying with water tends to blow ashes
around and make a mess.
Ÿ Add briquettes 2 or 3 at a time to increase the burn time. Allow 10
minutes for coals to ash over before adding more.
