The metal barrel and burn chamber of the Smoking Gun™ will become very hot when in use. Allow the device to cool completely before touching the barrel or burn chamber, cleaning, or storing.
Always use the Smoking Gun™ in an upright position. Heated smoking materials may fall out of the burn chamber if tipped, resulting in a fire hazard.
Always empty ash and burnt material into a non-flammable receptacle.
Exercise proper care when igniting the smoking materials; improper ignition of flammable materials may result in explosion or fire hazard.
Always use a match or lighter to ignite the materials in the Smoking Gun™; DO NOT USE a kitchen torch or other heat device as the excessive heat may cause damage to the unit.
Do not point the Smoking Gun™ at any person or flammable object.
Avoid using the Smoking Gun™ in areas where smoke may activate smoke alarms or fire suppression systems.
Never operate the Smoking Gun™ without the stainless steel mesh filter in place; burning/glowing embers may enter the body damaging the unit or be ejected through the nozzle, creating a fire or burn hazard.
Removal or disassembly of any parts of the Smoking Gun™ other than the burn chamber, stainless steel mesh filter, battery compartment cover, or batteries may result in irreparable damage and void the warranty.

Assembly

Place the mesh filter in the top of the burn chamber and press down with a finger to seat it into the bottom of the burn chamber.
Place the burn chamber into the barrel. Push down until the spring around the burn chamber provides a small click sensation.
Press the larger plastic end of the silicone hose firmly into the round hole on the front of the barrel.

BATTERIES

Use 4 x AA (1.5V alkaline) batteries only. (No rechargeable batteries)

Remove the battery cover from the underside of the unit by sliding the clip towards the rear and rotating outwards.
Insert batteries into the cavity with orientation to match the outer face of the battery cover.
Replace the battery cover and press to snap into place.

Functions

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove any packaging material and promotional labels from the Smoking Gun™. Wipe the burn chamber and mesh filter with a damp cloth.

OPERATION

Place a small amount of wood chips (or desired smoking materials) into the burn chamber.
NOTE: Do not overfill the burn chamber. The wood chips should just cover the mesh filter area with a thin layer.
Press down the power switch located on the rear of the main unit to activate the fan at high speed. This position is designated by 2 lines (=) on the switch.
- Low Speed: To smolder the wood chips and generate smoke.
- Off: (Circle O)
- High Speed: For greater airflow to assist in initially igniting wood chips.
Use a handheld lighter or match to apply a flame to the top surface of the wood chips. Move the flame around to ignite the entire exposed surface. For best results, make sure the burning area is evenly distributed or centered.
WARNING: Do not use a kitchen torch or butane torch style lighter. Maintain the presence of the lighter for a period of time sufficient to start ignition only. Excessive heat may cause damage to the unit.
Once smoke is seen exiting the end of the hose, depress the top of the switch to maintain the fan on low speed (designated by 1 line (-)). Allow the wood chips to smolder and direct the smoke to where required (see Tips page 9).
When sufficient smoke has been generated or wood chips are extinguished, return the switch to the central position to turn the fan off (designated by a circle O).
Allow the unit to cool completely after burning has completed.
When cooled completely, the burn chamber can be removed by pulling it free of the barrel.
NOTE: Invert the burn chamber and tap on a solid surface to remove any remaining wood chips or ash. It is recommended to clean the burn chamber prior to re-assembly.
WARNING: The burn chamber is very hot after use. Exercise caution.

Tips

To provide smoke flavor and aroma for meats, fish, fruits, or vegetables after cooking, simply place the food in a covered casserole, stockpot, Dutch oven, or other covered dish/pan and inject smoke under the lid. (See table below for smoking techniques. See recipe cards included separately for more ideas and details.)
To enhance the presentation of a finished dish, add a hint of smoke under a domed plate cover.
Use the Smoking Gun™ to infuse delicate foods, such as cheeses and vegetables, with smoky flavor and aroma without changing their texture.
One to three minutes under smoke is generally all that is needed to infuse foods with a smoky flavor and aroma. When using the Smoking Gun™ with a covered receptacle, simply inject the smoke under the lid and let stand for a few minutes.
Do not place hose directly in the food. Place it just slightly above.
Continuous smoking with the Smoking Gun™ is NOT required.
Ensure the unit has had sufficient time to cool before reloading and operating additional burn cycles if required.
Hickory chips impart a pungent, smoky bacon-like flavor that goes particularly well with most meats, especially pork (ham, ribs, etc.) and beef. They are good for most vegetables because they impart a strong earthy flavor.
Applewood chips work well with poultry, game birds and pork. These woods provide a slightly sweet but denser, fruity smoke flavor.
Use wood chips that have been specifically prepared for the purpose of smoking - these timbers will have been dried to the correct level and will produce less resinous materials in the smoke output from the unit.

TECHNIQUES

TECHNIQUE	STEPS
CONTAINER OR BAG	When smoking cooked foods, apply smoke after cooking. Place food in a container, cover with plastic wrap, insert tube and fill with smoke. Alternatively, place food in sealable bag, insert tube and fill bag with smoke. Let food absorb smoke for 1-3 minutes and repeat 2-3 times for a stronger smoke flavor.
TABLESIDE	Plate food for serving. Hold drinking glass upside down and fill with smoke. Place glass over food and let smoke absorb while serving. Lift glass at table in front of your guests.
STAND MIXER	Whip or beat food in a stand mixer. Spread food evenly on mixing bowl walls for maximum surface area. Cover mixing bowl with plastic wrap, insert tube and fill with smoke. Let food absorb smoke for 1 minute and repeat 2-3 times for a stronger smoke flavor.
SHAKER	Prepare beverage. Fill shaker with smoke, remove tube, cover with lid and shake.

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, make sure the unit is completely cooled down and power switch is positioned to the off position.
Remove the burn chamber from the barrel. Invert the burn chamber and tap on a solid surface to remove any remaining wood chips or ash. The burn chamber may be cleaned by hand with warm soapy water or by placing in a dishwasher.
Wipe the barrel clean if residue is visible.
Mesh filter can be cleaned with warm soapy water and small brush as required.
Clean hose and tube ends in warm soapy water as required.
Use damp cloth to clean the main unit. Do not immerse in water.
