CHARCOAL SMOKER
GETTING STARTED
1 Lighting the charcoal in a charcoal chimney.
A charcoal chimney is a metal cylinder that is used to
start the charcoal burning before adding it to a grill
or smoker. Stu the chimney from the bottom with 3-4
pages of dry newspaper. Add charcoal to the top.
Light the newspaper and let it burn for about 15-20
minutes.
Alternatively the charcoal chimney will come with
instructions on how to properly use the chimney to
get the coals started.
If you don’t want to use a charcoal chimney, it’s
important to prepare and light the charcoal using
paper, kindling or fire starters in the smoker and let
it reach the correct temperature before adding the
smoking wood chips and food.
