Is there a recipe book? How do I know what to do with the meat, or can I use the cook book that goes with other grill smokers

No recipe book. Check some forums for Kamado's (there's one if you search for Kamado and Guru that's specifically for these Kamado's that has plenty of recipes).

Sorry to report that recipes are a dime a dozen out there and that I have hit on some really bad ones. Some recipes found in my kamado manual were not very good either. Your best bet is to web search for cooking times only and use your own favorite seasonings.

You need to Take the grate out and dump some on. If food already on, then plan ahead so you don't. For what it's worth, I've never run out even when it's smoker.

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.

I use the smoker side unit. The charcoal or wood goes in the smoker unit with a pan of water on the grate above. The steam will keep the meat from drying out. The meat goes in the large bbq unit with an empty pan under it to catch the drippings. Since the smoke is coming from one side. the meat will have to be turned around halfway through to cook evenly. There are many good smoking books on the market.

It did not come with a book of recipes. However, in the instruction booklet that comes with the skillet there are directions for different types of food and the temperatures to use. Cook books come with cooking instructions and you can transpose those to use with your skillet. I hope this helps you.

For the cooking process, you need the heat from your grill. The smoker adds the smoke needed for the smoking process. Yes, you add pellets to the smoker. There are many different kinds of pellets and chips to get the desired smoke taste you want. IE. Apple, mesquite, pecan. It is a great addition to our grill and get the smoke you want, with out have to have an additional large piece of equipment.Hope this helps. We are very happy with our purchase

no I do not believe a recipe book or anything comes with it. You can go to youtube on the net and get some info from some of the videos and such for using these.

No recipe book. Just a sheet on how to use. You can use whatever you want. I've used mine a few times and used pickles, jalapeño slices, caramelized onions, mushrooms, cheese and salsa. Anything you want to stuff it with is ok.

The only place I have found recipes of any sort is if you order the 4 pack. A small, shall we say, pamphlet comes with the order.

Before you put any meat in the smoker set it to max temp. Let it get up to 300 degrees and set it there until you see the smoke rolling. Then put your meat in and drop your temps to the set point you want. I mostly only put more wood in every 3 hours or so, but once you have it smoking at the start then you get good smoke throughout. Another thing I have found is that if you have it heavily loaded with meat then you have to also add more water when you add the wood. Mostly, I have it lightly loaded and I don't have to mess with my water. Another tip is to make a aluminum foil tent over the wood. Good luck Before you put any meat in the smoker set it to max temp.

1. I do not season the smoker, but food: meat, chicken, fish, vegetables, even apples, bananas, etc. :-)Seasoning ingredients for food? There are hundreds - google it and choose what you like.Some times I use up to 15 different spices for brine and up to 10 for rub.2. To fire up I use chimney starter and Minion method

I can only tell you what I do! I soak a small amount of wood chips in water, then place them in a small aluminum pie pan (like pot pie size...). I heat the grill for about 30 minutes, then put the pan on the very rear (hottest part) of the grate, over the point where the burners hook into the body of the grill. Continue to heat on high, then when the smoking starts pretty well (takes about 30 minutes), I USE A MITT (safety point!) to pull the pan to the front of the grate while I cook the meat. Works great for me, just takes a little more heating time.

I am not sure about the seasoning part. I don't follow the norm. I just started grilling but you may have something there.

Go to char boil.com. There is a ton of info out there. I have used mine every weekend since I've owned it . Buy a good thermometer and go by it. Get a bunkbed basket put it in the bottom of the basket if you cook larger cuts of meat keeps cooking more even. Less heat in the bottom. listen, put a ham, a turkey, porkbutt roast, sirloin roast . Or any thing you can imagine. This thing Rocks. I love it . I have also given 2 oil fryers away. P.S try pork butt roast. it will get eaten way before it ever gets pulled. AWESOME. Hoped this helped

No recipe book but I've tried just using some favorite items that taste good with burgers, such as cheese, chopped onion and veggies and then just follow 'how-to-use' instructions on stuffing the burger and it works perfectly.
