Technical Specications

Note: The Smoker temperature should not be higher than 190F at any time when smoking meats. You should not leave the smoker unattended during a long periods of time.

Operation

Before you smoke your meat, curing and brining the meat is essential to preserve the product. It can also be

used to ﬂavour individual taste with sugars, wines, herbs and spices. Flavour injectors will allow the ﬂavour to be absorbed directly into the meat. Brines help prevent spoilage, moisturize the meat and insert ﬂavour which adds to the smoke ﬂavor. Marinades can be used to ﬂavour and tenderize the product. Add the marinade and

soak the meat in a bag overnight in the refrigerator prior to smoking the meat.

Additional Flavour: After the bringing or marinating you can add rub for extra ﬂavour on the surface of the food.

Use vegetable oil, or a basting spray so the rub can stick onto the product.

While you are waiting for the smokehouse to preheat, dampen the sawdust. Do not soak it or get it too wet as it will create extra moisture that will condense on the inside of the smokehouse. On the other hand, if it is too

dry, it may create an open ﬂame which may scorch the meat and/or damage the smokehouse. There are three

ways to check if your sawdust has reached the proper dampness:

1. There should be no visible water collecting in the bottom of the sawdust pan,

2. All of the sawdust should be a darker color,

3. When you pick up a little more than a pinch of sawdust and squeeze it in your ngers, water should not drip

out. The amount of sawdust used greatly depends upon individual taste. Using one full pan is a good place to start.

1. Preheating:

• To pre-heat smokehouse close the vent and wait until it reaches about 190°F.

2. Load the meat into the smokehouse.

3. Be advised when the smoker is at 190°F it will drop to 120°F-130°F when it is fully loaded and the door is

closed.

4. Drying:

• Keep the door closed and dry the meat for 30-45 minutes.

5. Sawdust pan:

• Open the smoker door and carefully place the sawdust pan with sawdust in it.

6. Smokestack:

• When there is smoke coming from the smokestack, it’s time to lower the temperature to 140-145°F and hold at this temperature. Leave a gap in the vent while in use.

7. Raise the temperature every 1 - 1.5 hours until the smoker temperature is at 160-165°F. Hold at this temperature and keep the internal temperature of your smoking product at 152°F until meat is fully cooked.

8. Power off the smoker:

• Carefully remove the meat and wash it with water that is approximately 120°F

• Serve or refrigerate.

Operation

TYPES OF SMOKING

Dry Smoking: uses heat on the product to slowly cook food.

Wet Smoking: Wet smoking or water smoking is when a pan of water, fruit juices, wine, or other liquids are used to keep moisture and add ﬂavour.

Cold Smoking: This consists of smoking food at temperatures below 38-100°F. This will not burn the fat off. Foods for cold smoking would usually be cured rst.

Hot Smoking: Hot Smoking is the process of smoking food at the same time as it cooks. Hot smoked foods

may be cured (brined) or marinated, or basted or rubbed.

BARBECUE: THE BASICS

Heat, smoke, and time all affect the smoking process. By smoking in low heat for a long period of time, this will produced the best results which adds ﬂavour to the meat.

MEAT SMOKING

The process of meat smoking is done at a lower temperature than grilling. The goal is still to cook the meat, but over a longer period of time, and at a lower temperature. There is less chance of burning the meat.

WOOD PELLETS

Hickory: Can be used for poultry, ham, beef and pork. Will give sweet bacon ﬂavor. Apple: Can be used for poultry, sh and pork. Gives a sweet taste. Oak: Can be used for poultry, ham, beef and pork. Gives smoke ﬂavour. Mesquite: Can be used for poultry, beef and lamb. Gives a unique, slightly sweet but hearty ﬂavour. Pecan: Can be used for poultry, sh and pork. A more subtle smoke ﬂavour.

ADDING WOOD PELLETS DURING SMOKING PROCESS

• Add wood pellets or chips to the smoker to add ﬂavour.

• Temperature may spike brieﬂy after wood is added. It will stabilize after a short time. Do not adjust.

Maintenance

This smoker is very easy to clean and store.

1. Switch the smoker off and unplug it from the power source.

2. Allow unit to cool down before cleaning.

7

Maintenance

3. Remove the racks and sawdust pan. Scrub with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry.

4. Use soapy water and sponge to clean the inside of the smoker. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry. Do not use high pressure water against this unit.

Troubleshooting

Should your Smokehouse not be performing to your expectations after proper assembly and “seasoning”,

review the checklist below.

1. A full pan of ﬂavor fuel should start to smoke in less than 20 minutes and should be consumed in approximately 45 to 60 minutes. If this does not happen, check items 2 through 7 below.

2. Is there power to the Smokehouse? Are the fuses or breakers in working condition? Is the cord connected to 110-120V AC outlet properly? The temperature inside the smoking chamber should reach a minimum of 150ºF when operating properly (when outside temperature is 70º).

3. Do not use a lightweight or long extension cord. Try plugging the Smokehouse directly in 110-120V AC outlet. Lightweight or long extension cords cause a drop in voltage.

4. Is the Smokehouse protected from wind or cold temperatures? Air temperature below 45ºF prohibits proper function. Try a different location.

5. Is the ﬂavor pan lled ﬂavor fuel and in the proper position on the heating element?

6. The drip pan should be in its proper location on the rack.

7. Do not use coarsely processed or chunk-style wood. Avoid moist or dampened wood or those with bitter bark attached.

8. The time to begin to smoke is 20 minutes and 45 to 60 minutes to consume a pan full of ﬂavor fuel.

9. To remove the heating element, unplug your Smokehouse and allow it to cool before proceeding. Carefully unplug cord from the socket, lift the front of the element until it snaps out of the bottom clips, then pull it

toward the front until it clears the junction box. It may be necessary to squeeze the element legs together

slightly to reduce friction. To mount a new element, reverse this procedure.
