Operating Instructions CLEANING INTERIOR OF GRILL: • We recommend cleaning off food residue immediately after cooking by gently scrubbing grates with wire bristle brush and then turning burners to “HIGH” for approximately 5 minutes. The heat from the burners will burn off most food/grease residue from grates & heat tents and turn it to an ash like substance which will fall to the bottom of the firebox or grease tray.

Grilling Tips PORK FISH POULTRY BEEF Grilled Pork Chops Turn your grill on high and close the lid. Allow it to heat up for 15-20 minutes. Rule #1: Go thick, not thin. Don’t try to grill thin pork chops. Bread them and fry them, and they’ll taste great. But if you put them on the grill, they’ll cook too fast and end up tough and flavorless.

In a gas smoker, soaking the wood chips may prolong the life of the wood chips but it will also take longer to produce smoke so we will leave that decision up to you. Do not soak your wood chips when using your Smoke Hollow electric smoker. What you need to smoke meats: Internal Meat Thermometer An internal meat thermometer is a must to cook large pieces of meat to make sure it is done internally.
Smoking Recipes PORK FISH POULTRY BEEF Smoked Pork Tenderloin Take outside wrapper off of meat and wash thoroughly in cold water. Place tenderloin on a paper towel to soak up excess water. Rub your favorite pork rub on the loin (we recommend Head Country Pork seasoning). Preheat smokers to 225 degrees and place loin in the center of the smoker.

Smoking Recipes PORK FISH POULTRY BEEF Smoked Halibut Select a nice fresh ¾” thick filet. Wash filet thoroughly in cold water and lay on paper towel until water is not visible. Melt a whole stick of butter in the microwave and sprinkle a liberal amount of Dill weed in the melted butter. Lay filets on aluminum foil and fold a lip around edges to contain the butter.
