Do you need the added smoke generator? Shelf add on for cook utensils?

I get plenty of smoke without the smoke generator. There is a nice smoke ring on all the meats, so far. An add on shelf that collapses or is easily removed would be a nice feature.

I do not have the cold smoke generator you can set it to manual and crack the lid to get the temp low, I have made jerky and it works great. there is a small shelf for utensils already on the right side.

Only if you are going to cold smoke fish etc. I have smoked salmon and it came out great.

Yes you can. The charring rod only activates when you are smoking. Otherwise the main element gets hot, and cooks like any other pressure cooker.

None. This is a wood chip holder for adding smoke, particularly in a gas grill.

No, I believe because it is an electric smoker that would be a fire hazard. However; it does include a drip pan that will keep some moisture in the unit.

No, but there is no need to. You adjust the heat with the vents. If you want to have the coals close to the cooking surface, you can use the included baskets to pile up the charcoal.

I bought the chimney for lighting it, the chimney speeds things up.The grill is good, but find myself using the gas grill yet,seems I don't want to take time lighting etc. Maybe grill twice on a small bag of coal

it's just like using a teflon skillet only its bigger and fits over two burners. If you are cooking something that will smoke or burn then yeah there will be smoke. Same as any skillet.

no smoke at all. The only thing would be a little steam other than that the smoker detector won't go off. But don't do what I did, I forgot to pat my potatoes for french fries and because of the dampness the fryer did overflow with grease which is to be expected - but no smoke. I have really been having problems frying DUH!! You will enjoy the fryer a very safe product and honest no smoke. At least I don't have any smoke. Jaw

Yes and It's an hour is so to get it built. If you add the smoke box..add another 1/2 hour.Easy job...dont forget to season the grill with veg oil for how ever long book recommends..After that its cooking and smoking delicious meats...

You can use the wood dust or pellets. I crush the pellets up a little bit to get a better burn in my smoker, but either will work.

No, it requires some changes to work like in this video. You're gonna have to cut the outside and inside metal with tin snips for it to fit, plus bend the element. It also doesn't put out as much heat, 1300w vs. 1500. What you get for all this work is much better temp control so you can use your smoker for things like cheese and jerky. You should pop in a $5 thermostat too so you can tell what the temp is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXpClfFTRaw&list=UUCw46lSuLFe1BDqA-1jQdiA

Lack of side shelves will not impact main grill performance. However the side burner will not operate without the side shelf.

Perhaps a rib rack, bags of kingsford charcoal, an instand read thermometer, tongs, oh and a Weber Chimney starter--thats the most important thing. Tell him about the weber virtual bullet forum as well. Its a great resource!! Happy smoking.

Ours has never produced smoke, but of course with us sitting right next to it and monitoring the cooking, I would assume that if something would burn on it, it would produce smoke. We normally use ours outside, but have used it indoors with no concerns.

It's not required. I put Eucalyptus essential oil.. or something called On Guard (also for sale on Amazon) in mine (a couple drops) and it's great. I don't use this model anymore though. Mine started smoking and we tossed it.

Hi Monica, as far as I remb. I think there is one included or should be telling you how to stack them etc.,to cook. Hope this helps. RJ

Technically you can do either. You will get better smoke if you put it under the grates directly on the heat source. You might not get enough heat above the grates to generate smoke on some grills.
