HELPFUL HINTS Using the Smoke-It-Tray® The Smoke-It-Tray® uses presoaked wood chips. For best results with faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and chops, etc., we recommend using finer wood chips because they ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend using larger wood chips because they ignite slowly and provide smoke for a longer period of time. As you gain experience in using your Smoke-It-Tray®, we encourage you to experiment with different types of wood chips and chunks to find the smoke flavor that best suits your taste. To use the Smoke-It-Tray® As a starting point, soak wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before using. (Wet wood will produce more smoke flavor.) Place a handful of wood chips in the bottom of the Smoke-It-Tray®. As you gain experience in smoking, increase or decrease the amount of wood to suit your taste. Note: Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to fully penetrate the food. ƽ WARNING Make sure that grill is off and cool before handling cooking grate and/or Smoke-It-Tray®. 1 2 Heating the Smoke-It-Tray® There are two methods for using your Smoke-It-Tray®: (1) Place Smoke-It-Tray® above the Rotis-A-Grate®. Light the Rotis-A-Grate®. After wood starts to smolder, turn control knob to "LO". (2) For a more smoky flavor, remove one of the cooking grates and position the SmokeIt-Tray® to the left or right side of cookbox. Light the burner closest to the Smoke-ItTray®. After wood starts to smolder, turn control knob to "LO". Smoke will start in approximately 10 minutes and last as long as 45 minutes. If you require more smoke flavor, refill the Smoke-It-Tray® with wood chips. Keep the lid of the grill closed while cooking. Note: After refilling Smoke-It-Tray®, smoke will take about 10 to 15 minutes to start again. ƽ DANGER Do not use any flammable fluid in the Smoke-It-Tray® to ignite the wood. This will cause serious bodily injury. Cleaning the Smoke-It-Tray® Before each use, empty the Smoke-It-Tray® of ash to allow proper air flow. Note: Smoking will leave a "smoke" residue on the surface of the Smoke-It-Tray®. This residue cannot be removed and will not affect the function of the Smoke-It-Tray®. To a lesser degree a "smoke" residue will accumulate on the inside of your gas grill. This residue need not be removed and will not adversely affect the function of your gas grill. 25
