Dear Sir or Madam,Revolutionary Smoking Technology for Household ChefsWelcome to the wonderful experience of backyard smoking and slow roast cooking. The Bradley Smoker is an insulated smoker oven designed to automatically generate a continuous flow of clean smoke. It is an outdoor electrical appliance that enables one to cook, roast, hot smoke, as well as cold smoke food with consistently superior results using minimal effort.

The Bradley Smoker is unique in that it produces smoke which is four times cleaner than traditional burn-box chips*. Because it automatically extinguishes the spent bisquette, it prevents the formation of high temperature gases and acids. In addition, the Bradley Smoker meets both North American and European appliance standards.

There are eleven different woods of the Bradley Flavor Bisquettes that are made especially for your smoker: Alder, Apple, Cherry, Hickory, Maple, Mesquite, Oak, Pecan, Pacific Blend, Special Blend and Whisky Oak. For recipes ideas, please have a look on the enclosed recipes booklet and on our website: www.bradleysmoker.com

We also suggest you try our Bradley Recipe Collection, Flavor Cures, Bradley Jerky Racks, Bradley Original Racks, Sausage Hooks, Weather Guard Covers, Caps, Aprons, and the Bradley Digital Thermometer with meat probe that takes all the guesswork out of roasting and smoking meat.

I wish you great cooking and smoking for the years to come.

Sincerely,

Wade Bradley

Trouble Shooting

No Power To SmokerCheck that all plugs are correctly and firmly inserted into sockets. Check fuse (located on smoke generator). Check to make sure the outlet, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), has not been tripped.

Bisquettes Will Not AdvanceCheck the drive guide and clear all loose wood chips. By cleaning the smoke generator, Bisquette jamming and undue wear and tear can be avoided.

Bisquettes Will Not Burn CompletelyCheck to see if other electrical equipment is plugged into the circuit. The smoker should be plugged into its own dedicated wall circuit. Check to make sure the Bisquettes burner is free of residue build up.

Smoker Oven Not Reaching TemperaturesAllow smoker oven time to preheat. Remember, once food is put in the oven, the temperature will drop, and slowly rise again. Try closing the Damper slightly and keeping the smoker out of the wind. Next, try using a separate thermometer inside the smoker oven to ensure the temperature is reading correctly.

Note: Normal cooking temperature is between 95-120 °C (200–250 °F). Keep in mind that the temperature shown on the display is for reference only and is not intended to give exact internal temperatures of the food. The internal temperature will be higher closer to the Heat Element.
