Using the Smoker Box:
The smoker box is what will enable you to add smoke flavor to your foods. Sim-
ply fill the smoker box with wood chips to the desired level and slide it into place
prior to preheating the smoker. The smoker box can be filled to varied levels to
accommodate short and long cooks. There are many wood chip types that result
in different flavors. For a chart listing estimated wood chip level to cook time
ratios and smoke flavor details, please see grilling guide.
NOTE:
• The smoker box is designed for wood chips or pellets only, do not use wood
chunks.
• Always operate smoker with smoker box in place regardless of whether
or not you use wood chips. Never remove or refill the smoker box during
cooking
Using the Water Pan:
• Your appliance comes equipped with a water pan. The water pan can be
used to keep meat moist while cooking. To use, fill the water pan with
warm water (cold water can bring down the temp of the cooker) to the Max
Water mark and slide into place. Do not overfill the water pan.
NOTE:
• Using water is not required for smoking.
• Always operate (including preheating) smoker with water pan in place
regardless of whether or not you use water. Never remove the water pan
during cooking.
• If water pan needs to be refilled during cooking, always fill through the
hole in the drip pan assembly. Care should be taken when refilling water
pan to avoid having any liquid coming in contact with the heating element.
Serious damage to the heating element could result, including flare ups and
electrical failure.
