(f)OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR CHAR BROILER NATURAL WOOD SMOKE ESSENCE
Wood Smoke assist char broiling is more of an art than a science due to the many variables that affect wood ignition, rate of combustion, as well as personal preference.
In order to obtain the optimal results and flavor transfer the wood should smolder, not flame. Place wood in the log holders and follow the procedures recommended below and then adjust as required:
1)Preheat char broiler on maximum heat for ½ hour before adjusting for your various temperature zones.
2)Fill log holders to approximately ¾ of capacity using dry or presoaked wood.
a)When the char broiler's burners are set to maximum flame, the wood will begin smoking. While several factors will affect the rate of combustion of the wood, such as moisture content of the wood, size of the wood, type of wood, elevation above sea level, you can generally expect smoldering to begin in approximately
3)As the wood incinerates and begins to turn to ash, it will lose its ability to impart a smoke flavor. Periodically check the condition of the wood and replenish before it is completely burned. This will ensure uninterrupted smoking capabilities throughout your service period.
4)If the wood flares up because of the dripping grease or oil, spray water generously, directly on the burning wood.
5)If the wood tends to over flare, either
6)The amount of wood needed to complete the meal service will vary greatly depending on the size of the wood pieces and the moisture content.

! EMPTY IT INTO A SEALABLE METAL CONTAINER, DOUSE WITH WATER, STIR ! EMBERS, DOUSE AGAIN, THEN COVER WITH AN AIRTIGHT LID!!!
3.HELPFUL HINTS:
(a)Do not press the juice out of the meat because that will cause a dry product.
(b)Allow the meat to sit covered on a heated platter for 2 to 5 minutes after broiling before cutting. This will allow the juices to “settle” and the product will be more moist.
(c)Do not use forks or other sharp objects which poke holes in the meat. Do not cut the meat as it cooks
(d)Thick pieces of meat require a longer broiling time with less
(e)Keep the unit clean. Food caught between the grates will not allow hot air to rise around the product. This will result in uneven heating and increase cook time.
4.MAINTENANCE:
