Cooking Tip Damper Adjustments:
For better performance, rotate the smoker to where the front or back of the
cabinet is facing the wind. This allows the adjustment of the dampers to be
more effective and accurate.
The dampers should never be fully closed.
Opening a side damper allows more oxygen to be consumed by the fire,
fueling the flames and causing an increase in temperature.
Opening the top damper helps to exhaust both the heat and smoke.
The key to effective smoking is to watch your heat indicator on the door and
adjust the dampers accordingly.
Temperature maintenance is best controlled by different damper adjustment
configurations.
