COOKING TIPS

CHARCOAL

You may need to add additional charcoal during cooking to increase the temperature.

Follow the instructions and warnings in the charcoal smoking and grilling section.

Dry, hard woods will burn hotter than charcoal so you may want to increase the ratio of

wood to charcoal.

• Always wear cooking gloves when removing smoker dome lid and use long cooking tongs

when adding charcoal or wood, being careful not to stir up ashes.

NOTE: NEVER ADD LIGHTER FLUID TO HOT OR WARM COALS! NEVER USE

CHARCOAL AS AN INDOOR HEATING FUEL!

BARBECUE RIBS

Sprinkle lemon juice and seasoned

pepper on the ribs and let sit overnight or at
least several hours. When ready to cook,
rub with cooking oil. Paint with barbecue
sauce as desired, either before, or after,
cooking. Smoke or grill for 4 1/2 to 5 hours.

SMOKED SHRIMP KEBABS

with GARLIC COCKTAIL SAUCE

36 large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails left
intact)
2 large red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
Commercial Italian dressing
Garlic cocktail sauce

Alternately thread shrimp and red pepper

pieces onto 12 wooden skewers. Place in a shal-
low container and drizzle with Italian dressing.
Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Drain

salad dressing from kabobs.

Place shrimp

kebabs on top cooking grate. Cover with smoker
dome and cook 15 minutes or until shrimp are
pink and firm to the touch. Serve warm with gar-
lic cocktail sauce.

BAKED POTATOES & CORN ON THE COB

Corn can be wrapped in foil or soaked in salt

water and smoked right in the husk. Potatoes can
be wrapped in foil or cooking nails may be used.

SAUSAGE

The Kolbase (Polish sausage), Italian

Sausage or any smoked sausage cooks great!
Requires about 5 lbs. of hardwood briquette, hick-
ory, 1/2 pan water. Let smoke for about 1 or 1 1/2
hrs.

Sausage makes excellent kebabs while

using unused grill space.

MUSHROOMS, CAULIFLOWER or SQUASH

Your favorite vegetables can be smoked for that

cook-out flavor. By smoking vegetables, you also
seal in the nutrients and vitamins which can get lost
through average cooking. After wrapping loose veg-
etables in foil add Italian dressing, salt, pepper, bell
peppers and onions.

BARBECUE SAUCE
3 8-oz. cans tomato sauce
1 small bottle Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 lb. butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1tsp. dry mustard
2 tbsps. vinegar
2 tbsps. lemon juice
1/8 tsp. red pepper
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. seasoned pepper

Simmer all ingredients for 30 minutes.
For some recipes, you may add some of

the ingredients (juices) to the water bowl;
additional cooking time will need to be
added. See cooking chart.

SMOKED BEEF BRISKET
5-6 lb.beef brisket

(Season spices to taste.

)

red pepper, garlic salt, paprika

Trim excess fat off brisket. Pound meat

strongly on either side with fist. On each
side sprinkle lightly with red pepper, fairly
heavily with garlic salt, then cover with
paprika. Meat is even better if seasoned
the night before cooking or early in the day.
Smoke 6-8 hours. Slice thin and serve.
