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.

not use wood chunks.

Ÿ
whether or not you use wood chips. Never remove or refill the
smoker box during cooking

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.
