1. Prepare the wood chip and water pans for smoking (See below picture for proper pan
placement). The water pan should always be installed into the smoker when cooking (the
water pan will collect drippings from hot food and extend your burner’s life). Only use the water
pan provided with this unit.
note: when opening rear access door, move gas cylinder to side of smoker (hinge side) in order to open door fully.
when the door is closed return the cylinder to the position as listed in Figure 2, pg. 15.
wood chip pan for wet or dry smoking: If a wood smoked flavor is desired, use the wood chip pan, placed on the chrome
cooking grids of the fryer-boiler. Do not place the wood chip pan in the smoker cabinet at the beginning of the smoking
process. When only one hour of smoking time is left remove the lid from the wood chip pan and add the desired amount
of wood chips. Place lid back on the wood chip pan. Turn off gas to the appliance following the instructions in this manual.
Check to make sure there is no flame and all valves are off. Wearing protective mitts, open the rear access door on the
back of the smoker and carefully place the wood chip pan onto the chrome cooking grids of the fryer-boiler. The smoker
will be extremely hot. Use Caution! Relight the fryer-boiler according to the instructions in this manual. Close the door and
allow the remaining cooking time to pass. Refer to “Using Wood Chips to Add Flavor” on page 21 for more information.
water pan for wet smoking: Fill the water pan to within 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) of the top with water and your favorite marinade, soft
drink or beer. Place the water pan inside the smoker using the lowest set of tabs before lighting your cooker. Using
protective oven mitts, open the rear access door on the back of the smoker and visually check the water pan every hour
during cooking. The smoker and water pan will be extremely hot. Turn off gas to the appliance, following the instructions
in this manual, before adding more liquid. Use caution when removing and installing the water pan as hot liquid can splash.
Never allow the water to completely evaporate.
For dry smoking or For baking: Do not add water or marinade to the water pan.
tip: Line the water pan with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
2. preparing the racks:
Open front door to smoking chamber and install racks (without food) onto provided tabs located on the sidewalls of the
smoker cabinet (see below picture.) Make sure racks are level when installed. Place food on installed racks as desired
before lighting. Once desired cooking time has passed, using well insulated pot holders or oven mitts for protection from
hot surfaces and cooking tongs or other utensils, carefully remove food from racks. Racks can not be installed or
removed from the smoking chamber with food placed on them.
