Smoker Box (if applicable)
Rotisserie
Using the smoker box feature intensifies the flavor by adding smoke to the grilling process. The additional smoke creates a “cloud” around the food which permeates meats and vegetables for added smoky flavor. In order to use the smoker box, remove the last set of porcelain grids on the right hand side of the grill. Set the smoker box in the opening so that the front and rear tabs rest on the grill frame.

The rotisserie burner is an infrared burner which provides intense searing radiant heat. Preferred by professional chefs over other methods, this intense heat is great for searing in the natural juices and nutrients found in quality cuts of meat. Once lit, the rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperatures in about 1 minute. The red glow will even out in about 5 minutes.
To install the rotisserie motor, align the drive shaft on the motor with the gear box on the side of the grill. Tighten the thumb screws on the motor into the mounting brackets on the grill frame. The skewer for the rotisserie is assembled into the gear box assembly by placing the pointed end into the gear box and resting the rounded end on the wheels on the left side of the grill.

Wood Chip Use in Smoker Box
There are many wood chips available and selection is based on personal taste. The most common chips used are mesquite or hickory. Always soak the chips in water prior to putting them into the box. Use the “HIGH” position to start the chips smoking, then reduce the heat to a lower level to prevent them from drying out and flaming. If the wood chips do flame up, add a small amount of water to extinguish the flame. Use caution when adding water to a hot box to avoid steam burns. This tray may also be filled with water to produce steam. Whether smoking or steaming, the grill should remain closed as much as possible to maximize the effect.
During extended roasting periods, it is normal to add fresh wood chips and water to the box several times. Limit the amount of times the canopy is
CAUTION
Handle the smoker box with care. The cover becomes extremely hot when being used. Use sturdy, properly insulated gloves or dry potholders.
