PLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
(3.05m)
(3.05m)
(.61 m)
Keep twenty-four inches (.61m) between the
cylinder and the appliance. Placing the
cylinder too close to the appliance could
result in fire or explosion which could cause
property damage, personal injury or death.
The hose connecting the appliance to the
tank poses a trip hazard. Do not step over the
hose or walk between the cylinder and
appliance. Tripping could cause the
appliance or cylinder to tip over, leading to
fire or explosion which could cause property
damage, personal injury or death.
WARNING
1. Place the smoker cabinet on the smoker base/fryer-boiler. The smoker door should be placed facing the
opposite direction of the hose. The bottom of the smoker cabinet should be placed within the raised ring of
the smoker base/fryer-boiler. This provides a stable support for the unit.
2. Next, 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 water pan provided with this unit.
Wood Chip Pan for Wet or Dry Smoking: If a wood smoked flavor is desired, use the wood chip
pan, placed on the bottom brackets of the smoker body. 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. Open the side door of the smoker. Wearing protective mitts, carefully place the wood chip pan onto
the bottom rack of the smoker cabinet. The smoker will be extremely hot. 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 receiving brackets
right above the wood chip pan, before lighting your cooker. Check the water pan every hour during
cooking using protective oven mitts. The smoker and water pan will be extremely hot. Use caution when
removing and installing the water pan as hot liquid can splash. Never allow the water to completely
evaporate.
For Dry Smoking: Do not add water or marinade to the water pan.
Tip: Line the water pan with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
