Cooking tips and smoke check
Grill chamber
• The chimney controls the amount of smoke in the grill
chamber.
• The air intake valve regulates the temperature in the grill
chamber.
• Smoke and heat go from the embers via grill chamber and
out through the chimney.
1. Place the food in the grill chamber at least 15 cm away from
the opening to the smoker. The cooking and smoking take
place with indirect heat. There is no need to worry about
dripping grease that burns and ruins the food.
2. Keep the lid closed. The delicate heat and oxygen balance
of the charcoal will be interfered with if any of the panels
to the smoker box or grill chamber are opened. Open the
panels as little as possible to avoid diminishing the heat and
prolonging the cooking time.
3. Turn the meat round. If you have meat on the left and right
sides in the grill chamber, turn the meat round half way
through the cooking.
4. If the food gets over smoked, or burned before the cooking is
ready, place grill foil over it. Remember to use grill gloves.
5. Utensils can be warmed in the smoke chamber while the
food is cooking. Remember to use grill gloves.
6. The food can be flavoured with oil or marinade before
grilling. Do not use too much marinade because smoke
and aroma from the smoke chips affect the taste of the
ingredients.
7. Remove all the ash after use. Make sure that the ash has
cooled before removing.
