COOKING GUIDELINES
Smoking and grilling styles of cooking can give you different results based on time and temperature. For best results, keep a
record of what you cooked, at what temperature, how long you cooked for, and the results. Adjust to your taste for the next time.
Practice makes perfect.
The culinary art of hot smoking refers to longer cooking times, but results in more natural wood flavor (and a sought-after
smoke
ring) on your meats. Higher cooking temperatures result in a shorter cooking time, locking in less smoke flavor.
TIP: For best results, allow time for meats to rest after cooking. This allows the natural juices to migrate back into
the meat fiber, giving a much juicer, flavorful cut. Resting times can be as little as 3 minutes and up to 60 minutes,
depending on the size of the protein.
