Town Smokehouses create smoke as drippings and marinade come in contact with the drip shield.  Chip box use 

adds smoky flavor to the natural barbecue taste. Refer to figure 3 for chipbox insertion, and figure 5 and 6 below 

for placement and functionality.  

Use the following procedure to for regular smoking, cold smoking and extended period smoking:

1)  Fill the chip box with wood chips or chunks.  Woods most often used include Mesquite, Hickory, or wood from 

fruit trees.  Moisten the top layer of chips.  Replace the cover.

2)  Barbecue normally in the Smokehouse.  Turn off the main gas valve about 10 to 15 minutes before the product 

is completely cooked. Turn Smokehouse off by turning the valve clockwise.  See figure 4 below.

3)  When the oven is cool enough to insert the chip box without any danger to you, carefully place it in front of 

the water pan and lower into the combustion chamber (figure 3).  Chip box clips allow it to hang on the lower 

door frame as shown below in figure 5.  Make sure chip box cover is on so wood does not burn.  It may be 

 

necessary to shift the baffle plate to the rear of the unit to allow sufficient space for the chip box to be inserted.

4)  Close the door and turn on the main burners.  Turn burners off when product is done (about 10 minutes); the 

chips will have started to smoke.  Smoking will last up 1 hour.  Remove the product when finished.  

 

Use caution—the meat will be very hot.  Remove any wood ashes have fallen into the combustion chamber 

before using the unit.

  cold smoking

 

Start chip box first.  To quickly cool the Smokehouse, fill the water pan with ice cubes and place product 

 

in unit.

  extended period smoking

 

Large capacity chip boxes are available.  Models and sizes are on page 7.
