GENERAL SMOKER OPERATION
S M O K I N G F U N C T I O N
LOAD WOOD CHIPS.
●
Measure one container full of dry wood chips.
●
Soak dry chips in water for 5 minutes.
●
Shake excess water off wood chips.
●
Place moistened chips back into the container
and position the container securely on the two prongs
located on the interior back panel of the oven.
A full container of wood chips will produce smoke
for an approximate period of one to two hours
depending on the cooking temperature being used
for the selected product. The tested procedures in
this manual for many of the products that are appropriate
for smoking provide complete product smoke penetration
and full smoke flavor.
CHEF OPERATING TIP
Pr oducts such as ribs that r equir e heavier smoke penetration to r each full smoke flavor
should r emain in the oven after cooking has been completed. Do not open the oven door.
Set the oven in the Low Temperatur e Steam Mode at 140° to 160°F (60° to 71°C) and allow
the pr oduct to r emain in the oven for a period of one hour.
If you would like assistance, you are invited to contact an Alto-Shaam corporate chef for recommendations.
NOTE: Always keep the OVEN DOOR CLOSED whenever operating the smoking function.
The Combitherm Smoker can be operated without using the smoking function. After using the oven as a
smoker, however, it is necessary to clean the oven in order to prevent a transfer of smoke flavor to non-
smoked products. Cleaning instructions are provided in this manual.
D O N O T
OPEN THE OVEN DOOR DURING
THE SMOKING FUNCTION. The introduction
of outside air in the oven compartment may
cause the wood chips to flame.
