Preparing and Using 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.  
Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.  
1.  
2. Build a small fire on the fire grate, being sure not to lay coals against the walls.  
3. Close door. (Position butterfly 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  
butterfly damper and smokestack damper half-way and adding more charcoal. Your Smoker is now ready for  
use.  
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 !  
GRILLING  
Wood is recommended, however charcoal or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for grilling, with the  
fuel source placed and ignited on the fire grate. Do not build too large of a fire. We recommend starting a fire with no  
more than 4 pounds of charcoal (approximately 50-60 briquettes) and adding more as needed during cooking. After allowing  
the fire to burn down, place the cooking grills in the smoker. Failure to read and follow instructions for lighting charcoal  
may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.  
SMOKING AND SLOW COOKING  
If using the Smoker as a smoker or slow cooker, 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 its 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. The firebox will accommodate most split fireplace size logs (16).  
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. Do not place food within 6” of the opening  
from the firebox into the smoker chamber. 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 meats. Limit the number of times you open the smoker  
chamber door as this will allow heat to escape and extend the cooking time.  
Grilling 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.

COOKING TIPS  
Building Your Fire  
1.)  
2.)  
3.)  
Stack charcoal briquettes or wood into a pyramid-shaped pile on top of the charcoal grate  
or ash pan. We recommend using 4 pounds (approximately 50 - 60 briquettes) to start your  
fire, adding more as needed.  
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.  
After allowing the lighter fluid to properly soak in, light the pile of briquettes in several  
locations to ensure an even burn. Always light the fire with the grill lid 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.  
Never add charcoal lighter fluid to hot or warm coals as flashbacks may occur causing  
injury.  
You are ready to begin cooking when the pile of briquettes ashes over and produces a red  
glow (approximately 12 – 15 minutes).  
Depending on your cooking method, either leave the briquettes in a pile or spread evenly  
across the charcoal grate using a long-handled poker.  
4.)  
5.)  
6.)  
*Always use caution when handling hot coals to prevent injury.  
Know When Your Fire is Ready  
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. If you  
have less than that, the coals are not ready, and if all of them are glowing red hot, the fire is  
probably too hot. Here are a few steps you can take to adjust the temperature of your fire:  
-
-
-
-
If it is too hot, spread the coals out a bit more, which makes the fire less intense.  
Raise or lower the adjustable charcoal grate.  
Partially close the vents in the grill, which reduces the amount of oxygen that feeds the fire.  
Use the indirect grilling method, with coals to either side of a drip pan and the food over the  
pan rather than directly over the coals.  
-
-
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.  
Add briquettes 2 or 3 at a time to increase the burn time. Allow 10 minutes for coals to ash  
over before adding more.

GRILL MAINTENANCE  
Frequency of cleanup is determined by how much your smoker is used. Make sure coals are completely extinguished  
before cleaning inside of smoker. Inside surfaces may be cleaned with a strong solution of detergent and water applied  
with a scrub brush. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before using again.  
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.  
HELPFUL HINTS  
If food seems to be getting too smoky or brown before the cooking time is finished, cover it loosely with heavy duty  
aluminum foil.  
•Remove the ash after each use.  
•Covered side dishes can be warmed in smoker chamber.  
To prevent flare-ups, brush meat lightly with oil before grilling.  
Keep a small squirt bottle of water handy for grilling flare-ups.
