  • Page 14 USING YOUR SMOKER General Points • To avoid a bitter flavour on your food, be sure that your smoker has been cleaned prior to commencing the smoking process. And if you don’t need the racks during the smoking process, take them out prior to commencing. • Temperatures cannot be set above 135°C. This smoker is ideally designed for low temperature slow cooking (93°C to 100°C).
  • Page 15 Smoking Hints & Tips • When hot smoking, the ideal smoking temperature is around 105°C with a range from 90°C to 115°C. The goal remains to get the internal temperature of the meat up to its safe level for consumption as determined by using a meat thermometer. When the meat reaches the desired temperature, it is important to remove the meat from the smoker to avoid drying out.
