Cooking Guide
Smoking is the process of flavoring, browning, cooking, or preserving
food by exposing it to smoke from burning or smoldering material,
most often wood.
Smoking
1. Light the charcoal and pour it in the fire box.
2. Add few wooden chunks to the charcoal for smoke.
TIP:
Soak your wood chips or cooking planks in water for 15
minutes to prolong the smoking process.
3. Install the 18” heat diffuser and cooking grate.
4. Close the lid and adjust the lower vent - left slide to position 1
during the entire cooking process.
5. Adjust the top vent to position 2.
6. Wait until the kamado reaches the desired temperature of 220
to 250 °F degrees. Close the top vent further to slow down the
airflow and to keep the temperature low.
7. Wait until the thick white smoke dissipates, and then place the
food inside the Kamado and close the dome.
