Brinkmann Charcoal/Wood Smoker & Grill Smoker User Manual


 
Step 5
With coals burning well, carefully add wood chunks using long
cooking tongs (see “Flavoring Wood” and “Adding Charcoal/Wood
During Cooking” sections of this manual.)
Step 6
Place food on cooking grills in the cooking chamber.
Step 7
Close firebox, cooking chamber lid. Adjust the firebox air vent and
smokestack damper to regulate cooking temperature.
NOTE: Do not fully close air vent, damper and lids unless trying to
cool the smoker down or suffocate a flame.
Step 8
By closing the air vent and smokestack damper more, the burning
intensity is slowed and smoke is contained within the cooking
chamber, imparting more smoke flavor to food. The ideal smoking
temperature in cooking chamber is between 175°F and 250°F.
Step 9
For large cuts of meat, allow approximately one hour of cooking time
per pound of meat. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure food
is fully cooked before removing from smoker.
NOTE: A meat thermometer may be ordered directly from Brinkmann
by calling 1-800-468-5252.
Step 10
Allow smoker to cool completely, then follow instructions in the
“After-Use Safety” and “Proper Care & Maintenance” sections
of this manual.
