2.Always pre-warm the Grill before adding your smoking agent to the Smoker Box.

3.Remove the lid from the Smoker Box with a pair of tongs, or while wearing an insulated protective mitt and place some of the presoaked material in it (see Figs. 14a & 14b).

4.Use low or medium heat for smoking.

5.Use a marinade with drier foods to benefit the smoking process and to enhance the flavor of your smoked dishes.

WARNING : Always wear an insulated protective mitt when adding a smoking agent to the Smoker Box, to prevent burns.
