THE SMOKE-IT-TRAY ®
The Smoke-It-Tray ® uses presoaked wood chips. For best results with faster cooking
foods like steaks, burgers and chops, etc., we recommend using finer wood chips
because they ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods such as roasts,
chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend using larger wood chips because they ignite
slowly and provide smoke for a longer period of time. As you gain experience in using
your Smoke-It-Tray
® , we encourage you to experiment with different types of wood
chips and chunks to find the smoke flavor that best suits your taste.
TO USE THE SMOKE-IT-TRAY ®
As a starting point, soak wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before using. (Wet
wood will produce more smoke flavor.) Place a handful of wood chips in the bottom
of the Smoke-It-Tray
® . As you gain experience in smoking, increase or decrease the
amount of wood to suit your taste.
Note: Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to fully penetrate the food.
ƽ WARNING
Make sure the grill is off and cool before handling cooking
grate and/or Smoke-It-Tray
® .
Heating the Smoke-It-Tray ®
There are two methods for using your Smoke-It-Tray ® :
1) Place Smoke-It-Tray ® above the Rotis-A-Grate ® . Light the Rotis-A-Grate ® . After
wood starts to smolder, turn control knob to “LO”.
2) For a more smoky flavor, remove one of the cooking grates and position the
Smoke-It-Tray
® to the left or right side of cookbox. Light the burner closest to the
Smoke-It-Tray ® . After wood starts to smolder, turn control knob to “LO”.
Smoke will start in approximately 10 minutes and last as long as 45 minutes. If you
require more smoke flavor, refill the Smoke-It-Tray
® with wood chips. Keep the lid of the
grill closed while cooking.
Note: After refilling Smoke-It-Tray ® , smoke will take about 10 to 15 minutes to start
again.
ƽ DANGER
Do not use any flammable fluid in the Smoke-It-Tray ® to ignite
the wood. This will cause serious bodily injury.

residue cannot be removed and will not affect the function of the Smoke-It-Tray ® . To
a lesser degree a “smoke” residue will accumulate on the inside of your gas grill. This
residue need not be removed and will not adversely affect the function of your gas grill.
