lated cooking mitt and pull the Smoker Drawer out of the grill and fill with your prepared smoking chips. Dried
herbs and spices may also be added to produce different flavors. Return the Smoker Box to the grill and the heat

Tips for Smoking
You can reduce the strength of the smoke flavor by only smoking for half or three quarters of the cooking time.
The heat required for smoking is normally low to medium.
Foods naturally high in oils lend themselves well to smoking, while drier foods benefit from a marinade. You can
also rub the food with herbs, spices or flavored oils. Many foods can be smoked to produce stunning results with
very little effort. Here are a few suggestions:
• Tuna steaks, marinated in Asian flavors of sesame oil, soy sauce and sherry.
• Pork fillets, rubbed with ginger, orange rind and brushed with maple syrup.
• Mussels, brushed with lemon rind and chili oil.
• Lamb cutlets, marinated in virgin olive oil, lemon, oregano and black pepper. The same marinade can be
used for a whole leg or rack of lamb.
• Chicken, boneless chicken pieces especially sliced breasts
