thermocouple position.
Once lit, the rotis burner should
reach cooking
temperatures
in
about
1 minute.
The glow will
even out in about 5 minutes.
If the burner will only stay lit with
the control knob depressed, the
thermocouple
position
may
need to be adjusted (see figure
17-1)to ensure proper function.
To adjust, ensure that only the
last 1/4 to 1/2" of thermocouple
extends over ceramic and that it
is located close to the surface.
NEVER ATTEMPT
TO ADJUST
WHEN THE BURNER IS HOT.
MATCH LIGHTING
If the ignition system fails to light
the burner, it can be match lit ac-
cording to the procedure
found
on page 14.
Always
use basting
pan
under
the
rotisserie
to
keep
drippings
off
the
burners
and briquettes.
Never operate
main grill
burners
with
basting
pan
in place.
Allow
to
cool
completely
before
removing
from grill.
Using the Smoker Box
By adding
wood
smoke to the
grilling process, meats and vege-
tables will have a more tradition-
al BBQ flavor. In order to use the
smoker box, remove the first set
of grill racks and set the smoker
box in the opening
so that the
front and rear tabs rest on the
grill frame, and replace grill rack.
WARNING
Never
use
smoker
box
over a ProSear burner.
Wood Chips
There
are
many
wood
chips
available and selection
is based
on personal taste.The most com-
mon chips used are mesquite or
hickory. Always soak the chips in
water prior to putting them into
the box. Use the High position to
start
the chips
smoking,
then

reduce the heat to a lower level
to prevent them from drying out
and flaming.
If the wood
chips
do flame up, add a small amount
of water through
the
recessed
hole in the lid to extinguish
the
flame. Use caution when adding
water to a hot box to avoid steam
burns. This tray may also be filled
with water to produce steam.
Whether
smoking
or steaming,
the grill should remain closed as
much as possible
to maximize
the
effect.
During
extended
roasting periods, it is normal to
add fresh wood chips and water
to the box several times. Limit
the amount
of times the hood
is opened,
as each opening
can
add as much as 15 minutes
to
the cooking time.
CAUTION:
Handle
the smoker
box with
care. The cover
be-
comes extremely
hot when
in
use. Use sturdy, properly
insulat-
ed gloves or dry pot holders.
It is recommended
that a high
quality
meat
thermometer
be
used when smoking, as cooking
times can vary greatly by cut of
meat or environmental
factors.
