LIGHTING
5
Step 1:
Set the Roto Draft™ intake and exhaust dampers to
position 5 (wide open) to let the maximum amount of air in
to fuel the fire.
Step 2:
Open the lid on the cook box, remove the cooking grids
using the grid lifter provided (Item # 60750), and fill the tray
with roughly 8-10 lbs. of hardwood lump charcoal.
As you become more familiar with the Broil King
® Smoke ™
Charcoal Grill, you will get a feel for how much charcoal
you need for various cook times and temperatures.
Step 3: Lighting
If using starter sticks, light them and place into the top of
the charcoal bed at two or three locations.
If using a stainless steel chimney starter, fill the Broil
King
® Charcoal Chimney Starter (Item # 63980) with
charcoal. Fill the bottom of the chimney starter with one or
two pieces of newspaper. Place the chimney starter on
the charcoal tray inside the fire box.
Once charcoal is lit, carefully pour the lit charcoal onto the
charcoal tray closest to the intake damper. This will
encourage the fire to burn and evenly. You can add unlit
charcoal to increase the amount of fuel.
Step 4:
Allow the charcoal to ignite with the fire door open until
charcoal is aflame.
Step 5:
Adjust dampers to achieve desired temperature. Start
closing dampers 50 degrees before target temperature.
SHUTTING DOWN:
When you’re ready to shut down the Broil King ® Smoke ™
Offset Smoker, close the dampers to snuff the fire out
completely
