OPERATION GUIDELINES
The following sections cover the basic guidelines for
lighting and using your smoker. Cooking temperatures,
times, and methods may vary depending on personal
preference, weather conditions, etc. DO NOT LEAVE
THE UNIT UNATTENDED WHEN IN USE.
LIGHTING
1. Unlatch and open the fi rebox door located on the top
rear of the smoker (see Fig. 9-1).
The larger chamber on the left is for loading charcoal. The
smaller chamber on the right is for loading wood chips.
Note: Both chambers may be loaded with charcoal when
smoking is not desired. This will achieve higher
temperatures, in a quicker time period. This is also
recommended when the smoker is being cured.
2. Fully open the rain caps on the two chimneys, located
at the top of the smoker (reference Fig. 9-1).
3. Drop crumpled newspaper balls into the charcoal
chamber until the chamber bottom is completely
covered and full. This will take approximately 6 pieces
of newspaper.
4. Pour 2-5 pounds of charcoal into the charcoal chamber,
directly above the crumpled newspaper. (Approximately
2 lbs of charcoal for every 15 lbs of meat to be cooked.
This will maintain approximately a 225° temp. Adjust
accordingly.) THIS INITIAL AMOUNT IS TO GET
THE SMOKER LIT AND UP TO TEMPERATURE.
ADDITIONAL CHARCOAL IS TO BE ADDED IN THE
FOLLOWING SECTION.
CAUTION: DO NOT add more than 5 lbs of charcoal
when pre-heating. This will cause rapid
heating and may cause damage to the
unit.
5. Unlatch and open the ash compartment door located
on the bottom rear of the smoker (see Fig. 9-2).
6. Use a lighter or long match to light the newspaper
through the ash compartment. The fl ame should easily
rise up through the charcoal grid and ignite the paper
(see Fig. 9-2).
7. Leave both the fi rebox door and ash compartment door
completely open during the charcoal lighting process.
This will allow for adequate air circulation to assist in
the light.
Note: NEVER ADD ANY TYPE OF LIGHTING FLUID
TO THE CHARCOAL CHAMBER ONCE THE
CHARCOAL IS LIT. THIS WILL CAUSE A
DANGEROUS FLASHBACK.
