The Pro Series Smokehouses come with two processing settings:
Smoke - Temp Range 80° - 180° F - 725 Watts
This is the recommended setting when using a sawdust pan for smoke production. A lower wattage output from the burner reduces the chance for burning sawdust and produces a more controlled stable smoke cycle.
Cook - Temp Range 80° - 300° F - 1450 Watts
This is the recommended setting for cooking product above 180°F. It can also be used to hold lower temps without a sawdust pan and may come in handy when smoking in colder climates as the higher wattage burner setting will produce more radiant heat within the smoker. We do not recommend using the sawdust pan on this setting, especially for prolonged periods.
