GRILLING METHODS - SMOKING

SMOKING

Smoking is cooking food at a low temperature over
an extended period of time using chunks or chips
of genuine hardwood (A). This technique is also
referred to as the "low and slow method". Cooking
low and slow keeps the juices and flavor in your
food to produce an extremely tender piece of meat.
Smoking works great for large cuts of meat such
as: brisket, turkey, pork shoulder, ribs, and whole
chicken.
NOTE: Grilling in a colder climate or higher altitude will
extend your cooking time. Windy weather conditions will
raise the grill's temperature.
Grill Setup For Smoking
1. Place charcoal grate (B) in the bottom position of
the bowl then place the support ring in the middle
position of the bowl (C).
NOTE: 35-45 briquettes will provide 8-10 hours of
cooking time. For foods that require longer to cook,
more charcoal will be needed. Refer to the "Smoking &
Cooking Times" chart for more information.
2. Ignite the charcoal. Refer to the "LIGHTING
CHARCOAL" section in this owner's guide.
NOTE: Lid, dampers, and vents must remain open when
igniting charcoal.
3. Once the charcoal is lit, put on barbecue mitts
or gloves. Using long tongs, add WEBER wood
chunks or chips to the perimeter of the lit
charcoal (D).
4. Place the diffuser plate within the center of the
support ring (E).
NOTE: A disposable drip pan should be placed on the
diffuser plate to collect drippings and minimize cleaning
time. Add two drip pans when smoking larger pieces
of meat.
5. Place the cooking grate in the top position of the
bowl (F).
6. Close the grill lid.
7. Once the grill reaches the smoke zone on the
thermometer (G), slide the bowl vent arm to the
smoking position (H) and rotate the RAPIDFIRE lid
damper (I) accordingly to maintain recommended
smoking temperature.
8. Open the grill lid and clean the cooking grate
using a stainless steel bristle grill brush or
scraper.
NOTE: When using a stainless steel bristle grill brush,
replace brush if any loose bristles are found on cooking
grate or brush.
9. Place the food on the center of the cooking grate.
Consult recipe for recommended cooking times.
When Finished Cooking
Close the lid damper and bowl vents to extinguish the
charcoal.
