CURING PROCESS
TO COOK USING CHARCOAL AND DIRECT HEAT
(The fire is in the Smoker Chamber and the food in the Smoker chamber.) Follow these steps
for cooking with charcoal and direct heat in the main Smoker Chamber.
1. For best results use a metal charcoal starter and fill the starter with about 3 lbs of charcoal
and light the charcoal.
2. After 30 minutes, dump the charcoal into the bottom of the Smoker Chamber on the
charcoal grates, which should be at the lowest adjustment.
3. Adjust the Fire Box and Smoker Chamber dampers to 1/4 to 1/3 open.
4. Immediately and carefully place another 3 lbs of charcoal on top of the burning coals in the
Smoker Chamber.
5. Once the temperature reaches your desired level, food can be placed on the cooking
grates.
6. Cook meat and food to your personal preference.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CHARCOAL GRILL OPERATING INSTRUCTION
The charcoal offset Fire Box Grill & Smoker can be used to cook food either by:
CHARCOAL AND DIRECT HEAT
–
OR
-
SMOKE AND INDIRECT HEAT
Please read all steps before cooking.
The adjustable charcoal grate in the Smoker Chamber allows the charcoal grate to be
moved to within a few inches of the cooking grate allowing you to sear your meat and
lock in the juices. Searing takes only a few minutes on each side. Don’t allow the meat or
food to burn. After searing, crank the charcoal grate back to the bottom and cook the food
to your personal preference.
For smaller cookouts, the Fire Box can be used instead of the larger Smoker Chamber for
cooking with charcoal and direct heat. Follow the same steps above for cooking in the
main Smoker Chamber.
FOR YOUR SAFETY, FOLLOW ALL SAFEGUARDS AND INSTRUCTIONS.
