The
Vieluxe
®
smoker uses presoaked wood chips. For best results with faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and
chops, etc., we recommend using finer wood chips because they ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking
foods such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend using larger wood chunks because they ignite slowly
and provide smoke for a longer period of time. As you gain experience in using your Vieluxe
®
smoker, we encourage you
to experiment with different combinations of wood chips and chunks to find the smoke flavor that best suits your taste.
To use the Vieluxe
®
smoker
Before each use, empty the Vieluxe
®
smoker of ash to allow proper air flow.
As a starting point, soak wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before using. (Wet wood will produce more smoke
flavor.) Place a handful of wood chips or a few larger chunks in the bottom of the smoker body(1). As you gain
experience in smoking, increase or decrease the amount of wood to suit your taste.
Note - Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to fully penetrate the food
Note - Smoking will leave a "smoke" residue on the surface of the smoker. This residue cannot be removed and
will not affect the function of the Vieluxe
®
smoker. To a lesser degree a "smoke" residue will accumulate on the
inside of your Vieluxe
®
gas grill. This residue need not be removed and will not adversely affect the function of
your Vieluxe
®
gas grill.
ƽ DANGER
Do not use any flammable fluid in the Vieluxe
®
smoker to ignite the wood. This will cause
serious bodily injury.

USING THE VIELUXE

SMOKER
Light the smoker burner by following the instructions for Lighting The Smoker Burner on page 11. (Summary lighting
instructions are printed on a card inside of the cabinet door.) After wood starts to smolder turn control knob to low.
Smoke will start in approximately 10 minutes and last as long as 45 minutes. If you require more smoke flavor, refill the
smoker with wood chips and /or chunks. Keep the lid of the grill closed while cooking.
Note - After refilling smoker, smoke will take about 10 to 15 minutes to start again.
