One tray of wood chips will usually last about one hour. During extended grilling, chips may need to be
added several times. Pull the drawer only partially out of the grill to add chips while in use. Never re-
move the hot smoker tray completely from the grill. To improve smoke performance, keep the hood
closed as much as possible while food is grilling.
NOTE: If not thoroughly soaked, the wood chips will flare up during grilling. To extinguish flames, pull the
drawer slowly a few inches out of the grill front and add a small amount of water. The smoker tray can
also be filled with water to produce steam which can help keep delicate foods moist during grilling.
TYPES OF WOOD CHIPS TO USE:
 Alder: Medium, tart smoke flavor. Excellent on fish, chicken or game.
 Maple: Sweet, hearty smoke flavor. Best with fish, jerky or bacon.
 Apple: Light, sweet smoke flavor. Superb with poultry, ham or sausage.
