When charcoal is burning well, use long cooking tongs to carefully spread briquets evenly on the charcoal grates, one to two layers thick. If desired, add wood chunks using long cooking tongs (see “Flavoring Wood” and “Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cooking” sections of this manual.)

Step 6

Wearing oven mitts/gloves, place the two larger cooking grills on the top level in cooking chamber. Place food on cooking grills.

Close firebox and cooking chamber lids. Adjust the firebox air vent and smokestack damper to regulate cooking temperature.

NOTE: Do not fully close air vent, damper and lids unless trying to cool the smoker down or suffocate a flame.

By closing the air vent and smokestack damper more, the burning intensity is slowed and smoke is contained within the cooking chamber, imparting more smoke flavor to food. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure food is fully cooked before removing from smoker.

Charcoal/Wood Smoker specifications

The Brinkmann Charcoal/Wood Smoker is an ideal choice for barbecue enthusiasts desiring a versatile smoking experience. With its combination of charcoal and wood capabilities, this smoker allows users to infuse their meats with rich, smoky flavors while maintaining the traditional grilling method. Its design is rooted in promoting even heat distribution and optimal smoke circulation, ensuring that every piece of meat receives uniform cooking.

One of the standout features of the Brinkmann smoker is its double-walled construction, which helps retain heat, providing a consistent cooking temperature even in varying weather conditions. This design not only enhances temperature stability but also increases fuel efficiency, allowing users to maximize their charcoal and wood usage.

The smoker is equipped with a large cooking area, ideal for smoking multiple cuts of meat at once. Its porcelain-coated cooking grates prevent sticking and are easy to clean, making the smoking process more enjoyable. The adjustable vents enable users to control airflow, which is crucial in managing both smoke intensity and heat levels, promoting a customizable cooking experience.

Moreover, the Brinkmann Charcoal/Wood Smoker features a side firebox, allowing users to add wood chunks or chips without disturbing the main cooking chamber. This innovative addition means that the smoker can maintain a steady temperature while still providing an infusion of smoke, perfect for enhancing flavors in meats like brisket, ribs, and chicken.

Another notable characteristic is the easy-access water pan. Keeping a water pan filled during the smoking process adds moisture, preventing meats from drying out and ensuring that they remain juicy and tender. This attention to moisture retention highlights the Brinkmann smoker's commitment to quality cooking results.

For those who appreciate full-flavored, slow-cooked meals, the Brinkmann Charcoal/Wood Smoker represents an excellent investment. Its combination of innovative features, user-friendly design, and rugged construction makes it well-suited for both novice and seasoned smokers alike. Whether you are hosting a backyard barbecue or simply experimenting with new recipes, the Brinkmann smoker provides the perfect platform for creating mouthwatering smoked dishes that are sure to impress.
