Optional Stainless Steel Exterior, Legs and Casters

For durability, ease of cleaning and a good-looking unit, specify stainless steel (e.g. SM-24-*-SS-†) when 

ordering.  Casters and stainless steel legs are also available.

Where should I put my Town Smokehouse?

Put the Town Smokehouse under a hood.  A kitchen exhaust system creates a vacuum in the kitchen.  If the 6” flue 

pipe is connected to the outside, exhaust will not vent but return to the kitchen.  In addition, the metal door and 

frame as well as cap joints will sometimes allow smoke to escape.  This is normal.  If the unit is under a hood, the 

smoke is captured and exhausted.

The First Time using your Smokehouse?

The Smokehouse arrives with the interior coated with the oil used in manufacturing steel.  Be sure to clean the 

interior using soapy water.  After the interior is clean and the soap film removed, wipe the interior with cooking 

oil.  With the pilot lit and the water pan removed, turn the thermostat to 550ºF and let the oil soak into the steel 

surface for 30 minutes.  This process is similar to seasoning a cast iron fry pan.

Versatility is our specialty.

MasteRRange Smokehouses can roast and barbecue slabs of ribs (2-5 lbs. each), chicken, turkey, duck, 

and/or chicken wings; even prime rib, brisket or pork butts.  Optional racks and guides are required for product 

that cannot be suspended from the standard skewers.
