• Never apply charcoal starter to a lighted fire or hot coals.
Using quick start or self-starting charcoal may result in
damage to the outer paint finish.
Never substitute gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for charcoal
starter. In some states, the use of charcoal starter is prohibited
by law. In this case, paraffin-based starter cubes can be
substituted for charcoal starter. Charcoal can also be lit by using
a chimney style or electric starter. Never use charcoal starter
fluid with an electric starter.
Line charcoal pan with heavy duty aluminum foil. Punch hole in
foil to allow air ventilation.
Place smoker outdoors on a level, heat proof surface. If surface
(wooden patio, deck or grass) is not heat proof, line the surface
with a protective heat resistant pad of heavy duty aluminum foil.
Do not place smoker on vinyl or Astroturf type materials.
Dried aromatic wood chips or chunks need to be saturated with
water, so that when placed directly on hot charcoal briquets a
smoldering smoke will result. Wood chips or chunks can be
soaked too long; however, 2 hours is adequate. As a rule of
thumb, use wood chunks for smoking 3 or more hours and wood
chips when smoking less than 3 hours. Start with 3 wood
chunks or 1-1/2 cups of wood chips.
