FAQs
What kind of fuel should I use?

How often should I add charcoal or wood?
This depends on the cooking time and the desired temperature. Check the smoker every hour or so, and add fuel as needed.
How do I clean the grates?
Clean the grates with a grill brush while they are still warm after cooking. You can also use soap and water.
What is the warranty?
The product comes with a 2-year guarantee.
Can I use this smoker indoors?
No, this smoker is for outdoor use only.
How should I store my smoker?
Store it in a covered area or use a grill cover to protect it from the elements.
Troubleshooting
Smoker won't reach desired temperature.
Check airflow; ensure dampers are open and the firebox is properly fueled. Ensure there are no air leaks.
Uneven cooking or hot spots.
Adjust the fire and the food placement within the smoker. Rotate food during cooking. Ensure charcoal is spread evenly.
Excessive smoke production.
Reduce the amount of wood or wood chunks. Ensure the wood is dry. Adjust the damper to control airflow.
Difficulty controlling temperature.
Practice using the dampers to regulate airflow. Monitor the temperature gauge closely and make small adjustments. Ensure all air vents are free from obstructions.
