This document is an owner's manual and safety instructions for the BARTON Charcoal BBQ Smoker 18", item number 95545.

Function Description:

The BARTON Charcoal BBQ Smoker 18" is designed for outdoor use, primarily for grilling, smoking, and baking food. It can also function as a fire pit. This device is intended for personal domestic use and is not suitable for commercial applications. Its primary purpose is to cook food using charcoal as a heat source, with features that allow for temperature control and the addition of smoke flavor. The smoker is constructed in multiple sections, allowing for different cooking configurations and easy access to various components.

Important Technical Specifications:

The manual does not explicitly list detailed technical specifications such as dimensions, weight, or material composition beyond the general description of parts. However, it is an 18-inch charcoal BBQ smoker, implying a certain size for its cooking grates and overall structure. The assembly diagram provides a visual breakdown of 20 distinct parts, including a lid, cooking grates, a water pan, a charcoal chamber, and a base with legs. Fasteners are specified with sizes like M3X10, φ6X16, M6X12, M3, φ6X18, M6, M5X10, M5, and φ6, indicating the types of screws, washers, and nuts used in its construction. The average smoking temperature is approximately 225°F, which is controlled by adjusting air vents.

Usage Features:

The smoker offers several usage features for versatile cooking:

  • Multi-functional: Can be used for grilling, smoking, baking, and as a fire pit.
  • Temperature Control: Equipped with two airflow control vents—a bottom vent below the bottom bowl and an air exhaust vent at the top of the lid. Adjusting these vents allows users to control the smoker's temperature, with opening vents increasing temperature and closing them decreasing it.
  • Water Pan: Includes a water pan to help keep the temperature low and maintain moisture during smoking. Users are advised to check the water level every couple of hours and add water if the temperature rises.
  • Multiple Cooking Grates: Features both lower and upper cooking grates. The lower grate is placed on top of the water bowl, while the upper grate is for additional cooking space or smaller foods.
  • Door Access: A side door provides access to the bottom bowl, charcoal/wood chunks, and the lower cooking grate, although frequent opening is not recommended.
  • Thermometer Vent: A thermometer vent on the lid allows for external thermometer probes to be inserted to monitor food temperature without opening the lid.
  • Charcoal Options: Recommended to use charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal. Dry hardwood lumps can be added for smoke flavor.
  • Lighting Methods: Instructions are provided for using electric starters, chimney starters, self-starting charcoal, and lighter fluid. Specific warnings are given for each method, emphasizing safety and proper procedure.
  • Assembly: The manual provides step-by-step assembly instructions, detailing how to attach legs, vents, handles, and assemble the various sections of the smoker from bottom to top.
  • Safety Warnings: Extensive safety warnings cover aspects like indoor use prohibition (due to carbon monoxide poisoning), keeping children and pets away, not moving the hot grill, using oven gloves, avoiding combustible materials, and proper fire extinguishing procedures for fat/oil fires.

Maintenance Features:

The manual outlines key maintenance aspects to ensure safe and prolonged use of the smoker:

  • Cleaning: After each use, the smoker should be cleaned. It explicitly warns against using abrasive or flammable cleaners, recommending warm soapy water instead, to prevent damage and fire hazards.
  • Ash Removal: Instructions for ash removal are provided, emphasizing that ashes should not be removed until all charcoal is completely burned out or extinguished. The process involves closing the lid and vents to allow the charcoal to cool slowly, then sliding out the ash collector and disposing of ashes into a metal container.
  • Storage: Although not explicitly detailed, the general safety warnings imply proper storage by advising protection from extreme temperature fluctuations, persistent wet conditions, and collisions. The device should be allowed to cool sufficiently before being stored away.
  • Parts and Repairs: The manual states that the manufacturer/distributor provides the parts list and assembly diagram as a reference tool only. It explicitly warns that repairs and parts replacements should only be undertaken by certified and licensed technicians, and not by the buyer, who assumes all risk and liability for self-repairs. This implies that while individual parts are shown, they may not be available for individual purchase as replacement parts, reinforcing the need for professional service for complex repairs.
  • Customer Support: Contact information for customer support (phone and email) is provided for questions, problems, or missing parts, indicating a resource for assistance with maintenance and operational issues.
