Before positioning the Steam-N-Chips Smoker, consider
its placement.Take into account wind direction and what
type of food you want to enhance with smoke.

For example:when cooking two roasts or turkeys on a
6 burner Summit Gas Barbecue, position the Steam-N­Chips Smoker in Heat Zone 2, so that both pieces get
the same benefit of smoke and moisture.

For a large piece of meat, the Steam-N-Chips Smoker
should be placed in Heat Zone 1 or 3.

Wind direction is important in determining the placement
of the Steam-N-Chips Smoker. Place the Smoker so the
direction of the wind blows the smoke and moisture
toward the pieces being smoked.On a calm day, this
does not matter.

CAUTION: Avoid putting meat directly over the
Steam-N-Chips Smoker. During long duration
cooking, grease could accumulate on the Smoker
lid, and cause a grease fire.

A Steam-N-Chips Smoker combines the aromatic smoke
from mesquite or hickory with steam, giving foods a
delicious, savory smokehouse flavor and adding variety
to your cookout.

Cleaning the Steam-N-Chips Smoker

Before each use, empty the Steam-N-Chips Smoker of
ash to allow proper air flow.

WARNING:The bottom of the Steam-N-Chips Smoker
is solid and will accumulate ashes. Make sure the
ashes are out and cold before disposing them.

Note - Smoking will leave a "smoke" residue on the
surface of the smoker.This residue cannot be removed
and will not affect the function of the Steam-N-Chips
Smoker.To a lesser degree a "smoke" residue will
accumulate on the inside of your Weber Gas Barbecue.
This residue need not be removed and will not adversely
affect the function of your Weber Gas Barbecue.

DANGER

Do not use any flammable fluid in the
Steam-N-Chips Smoker to ignite the wood.
This will cause serious bodily injury.

To use, Install the Steam-N-Chips Smoker

As a starting point, place a handful of FireSpice Chips or a
few FireSpice Chunks in the bottom of the smoker body.
Figure 3. Since the chunks vary in size, place as many as
you can in the smoker allowing room for the water pan. As
you gain experience in smoking, increase or decrease the
amount of wood to suit your taste.Fill water pan, place it in
the smoker and close the smoker lid.

Position the waterpan in the provided cut-out on the side
of the smoker.The side with the cut-out should be closest
to the food. ALWAYS keep the smoker lid closed.

Light the barbecue and preheat with all heat zones on
HIGH, lid down, for 10 minutes or until the thermometer
registers 500°F - 550°F.Adjust the bur ner control knobs
for cooking; Medium or Low will be your best settings for
long duration smoking. Smoke will start in approximately
10 minutes and last as long as 45 minutes.If you require
more smoke flavor, refill the smoker with FireSpice Chips
and/or Chunks and refill the water pan with water.The
Steam-N-Chips Smoker may be used to enhance any of
the meat, poultry and fish recipes in the gas barbecue
cookbook. Cook with the lid down according to the times
indicated in charts or recipes.

Note - After refilling smoker, smoke will take about 10 to
15 minutes to start again.

The Steam-N-Chips Smoker cooks with both Weber
FireSpice Wood Chips and Chunks. For best results with
faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and chops, etc.,
we recommend using the FireSpice Chips because they
ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods
such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend
using FireSpice Chunks because they ignite slowly and
provide smoke for a longer period of time.As you gain
experience in using your Steam-N-Chips Smoker, we
encourage you to experiment with different combinations
of FireSpice Chips and Chunks to find the smoke flavor
that best suits your taste.A chunk-filled smoker will start
smoking after 15-20 minutes and smoke will last as long
as two hours.The heat zone settings on either side of
smoker should be on High until it produces smoke, then
adjusted for cooking.
