Clear an assembly area and get a friend to help you put your smoker together. Lay cardboard down to protect smoker finish and assembly area.

Step 1

Place the large cooking chamber on its closed end with the door open. Make sure that another person is holding the cooking chamber steady. The opening to the firebox should be facing up as illustrated.

Step 2

Install the plastic end caps into the two legs without the wheel axle. Using a block of wood and hammer, tap the cap into place.

Step 3

With the chamber standing on its closed end, attach the first two legs (without axles) to the end closest to firebox opening. Align the bolts of one leg with the pre-drilled holes in the smoker chamber as illustrated. Insert bolts and place a washer, then a hex nut over the leg bolts and hand tighten only. Do not attach a second leg yet.

Step 4

Insert the wire rack (curved end pointed down) into the mounted leg. Insert wire rack into other leg. Attach second leg onto cooking chamber using the same technique described in Step 4. Do not overtighten.

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.
