PELLET GRILLING 101
How Does the WEBER SmokeFire Work?
The WEBER SMOKEFIRE works by delivering WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL
NATURAL HARDWOOD PELLETS to the burn pot via an auger tube system.
Once the pellets are gravity fed into the burn pot, a glow plug ignites these
pellets. This starts up your grill, and will reach and maintain the temperature
you set on the attached WEBER CONNECT Controller. Once the glow plug
ignites the pellets, it will remain o for the remainder of the cooking session.
The grill’s fan provides oxygen through the burn pot to fuel the fire throughout
your cook.
Grilling Recommendations
• Use a large WEBER drip pan under the cooking grates when smoking or
cooking food at low temperatures to catch grease and food drippings, and
also add moisture to your food.
• Always keep the grill lid closed during preheating and cooking for best
performance.
• Download and use the WEBER CONNECT app with your SMOKEFIRE grill to
automatically get the latest and greatest software and feature updates.
Pellet Quality Matters
Using high quality WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL NATURAL HARDWOOD PELLETS
is essential for optimal grill operation. The pellets should have a crisp snap
when broken, instead of easily crumbling apart, to avoid grill performance
issues. Good quality pellets should give o minimal dust and should not
appear faded or white in color. They should also always be stored indoors
inside an airtight container to prevent the absorption of moisture and
humidity.
Recommended SmokeFire Maintenance
• Empty the grease and ash drawer before every cook.
• Remove the grates, flavorizer bars, and heat deflectors, scrape the cookbox,
and clean the burn pot of any ash or debris every 20 hours of cooking or 12
cooking sessions, whichever comes first.
• Scrape out the cookbox before transitioning from a low-and-slow cook to a
high heat sear.
• Always run a full shutdown after each cook to ensure grilling success the
next time.
• Purge and empty the hopper and auger tube every 4 weeks with regular use.
Every 2 weeks without regular use.
NOTE: For more detailed maintenace and cleaning instructions, please see the
“MAINTENANCE” section located at the back of this Owner’s Guide.

Changing Pellets/Purging Hopper
There may be times when you want to change the WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL
NATURAL HARDWOOD PELLET flavor for your next grilling session, or purge
the hopper for a thorough cleaning or maintenance.
1. From the rear of your SMOKEFIRE grill, set a large container underneath
the middle of the hopper (A).
2. Pull the hopper slide door located on the rear of the hopper to release
the pellets into the container below (B).
WARNING: Before filling your hopper with WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL NATURAL
HARDWOOD PELLETS, visually inspect the hopper finger safety guard to ensure
it is in place and not damaged (C). If damaged, immediately contact the Customer
Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our website
for a replacement.
We recommend using WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL NATURAL HARDWOOD
PELLETS with your SMOKEFIRE grill. For best results, store your pellets
indoors in an air tight container to prevent moisture from impacting pellet
performance. Always check the condition of your pellets before grilling. The
best way to judge the freshness of pellets is to break one in half. Pellets
should break with a snap, not crumble in your hand. Pellets that crumble in
your hand may impact the performance of your grill.
Grilling Methods
Your WEBER SMOKEFIRE is capable of many dierent cooking methods
such as grilling, searing, smoking, baking, braising, and roasting. Part of the
excitement of pellet grilling is that you get to enjoy all of your favorite recipes
infused with real hardwood flavor. This element of flavor can elevate your
average meal and make it something extraordinary.
NOTE: When grilling or smoking over a longer period of time, WEBER encourages
the use of our large WEBER foil pans between the FLAVORIZER bars and cook
grates to catch drippings and grease for easier clean up.
Explore Your Settings
There are many features to be explored on the controller and the WEBER
CONNECT app. From programmable timers to cook programs, there are more
reasons to love your WEBER SMOKEFIRE grill. Explore and experiment with all
of the possibilities.

40
Wear Gloves
Always wear heat-resistant barbecue mitts or gloves when using your WEBER
SMOKEFIRE grill. Vents, handles, ash and grease system, and cookbox will
all get hot during the grilling process and can cause severe burns. Be sure to
keep your hands and forearms protected.
Preheat Your Grill
Preheating your grill with the lid closed prepares the cooking grates and
internal cookbox temperature for grilling. The heat loosens any bits and pieces
of food hanging onto the cooking grates, making it easy to clean them o
with a grill brush or wood scraper. Preheating your grill also gets the cooking
grates hot enough to sear properly and also helps prevent food from sticking
to them.
CAUTION: When using a stainless steel bristle grill brush, be sure to check for
loose bristles. Replace the brush if any loose bristles are found on cooking grate
or brush.
Put A Lid On It
It is important to remember to always cook with your grill lid closed. This will
keep your internal cookbox temperature where you want it to be and throughly
cook your food.
Mix It Up
There are many varieties of WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL NATURAL HARDWOOD
PELLETS like Hickory, Apple, Cherry, and more. You can experiment by mixing
dierent flavors of pellets. Explore the possibilities.
Cook Time and Temperature
If you are grilling in a colder climate or in windy conditions, the cooking
times could be longer. These conditions will lower the grill’s temperature, so
always monitor your grill and use food temperature probes to ensure safe
food temperatures. Remember to keep the grill lid closed as much as possible
during cooking so the heat and smoke do not escape.
MAINTENANCE
m WARNING! Always unplug the grill from a power source and
wait for the grill to completely cool before performing any
maintenance or cleaning.
m WARNING! Never spray the grill with a steady water stream
such as from a garden hose or power washer. Electronic
components could become damaged.
m WARNING! Over time, the development of rough surfaces can
form on the heat bae, FLAVORIZER bars, heat diuser, and
cooking grates. Wearing protective gloves is recommended
when handling these parts.
m WARNING! Do not clean the heat bae, FLAVORIZER bars, heat
diuser, or cooking grates in a sink, dishwasher, or self-cleaning
oven.
m WARNING! Do not place any grill parts onto the side table as
they may scratch the stainless steel.
m WARNING! Do not use any of the following to clean your grill:
• Abrasive stainless steel polishes or pastes
• Cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits or xylene
• Oven cleaner
• Abrasive cleansers or pads
8. Reinstall the burn pot and pellet slide. Be sure to reinstall the two
screws that secure the pellet slide to the top of the burn pot.
9. Reinstall the glow plug shuttle through the rear of the grill and secure it
in place with the screw.
NOTE: Visually inspect that the tip of the glow plug is installed properly through
the pellet grate located at the bottom of the cookbox. If it is not through the pellet
grate, you must remove the glow plug shuttle again to adjust and reinstall it.
10. Reconnect the glow plug shuttle wires to the back of the glow plug
shuttle.
11. Reinstall the rear access panel located at the rear of the grill by
securing four screws.
12. Reinstall the heat bae, FLAVORIZER bars, and cooking grates

Cleaning the Exterior of the Grill
The outside of your grill may include stainless steel, porcelain enameled,
and plastic surfaces. WEBER recommends the following methods based
on the surface type.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean stainless steel using a non-toxic, non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner or polish designed for use on outdoor products and grills. Use a
soft, lint-free cloth to clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless
steel. Do not use paper towels.
CAUTION: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with abrasive pastes.
Pastes do not clean or polish. They will change the color of the metal by
removing the top chromium oxide film coating.
Cleaning Painted, Porcelain-Enameled Surfaces,
Plastic and Rubberized Components
Clean painted, porcelain-enameled and plastic components with warm
soapy water and a soft, lint-free cloth. After wiping down the surfaces,
lightly rinse and dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the Outside of Grills that are in Unique
Environments
If your grill is subject to a particularly harsh environment, you will want
to clean the outside more often. Acid rain, pool chemicals, and salt water
can cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down the outside of your
grill with warm soapy water. Follow up with a light rinse and thorough
drying. Additionally, you may want to apply a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner weekly to prevent surface rust. Use only as directed.
Cleaning the Temperature Probes
Your included temperature probes should be cleaned after every use to
ensure safe cooking practices. However, the temperature probes should
never be submerged in any type of liquid because it could damage them.
WEBER recommends gently wiping the temperature probes clean with
warm soapy water and a soft cloth or paper towel.
Cleaning the Grill Light
WEBER reccommends cleaning your interior grill light after 20 cooking
sessions or 20 hours. Using warm soapy water and a non-abrasive cloth,
gently scrub the outside lens of the grill light. Next, using the included
grill scraper, carefully pry the outside lens from the grill light housing.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A SCREWDRIVER OR ANY METAL TOOLS TO PRY THE
LENS FROM THE HOUSING. IT COULD CRACK AND BREAK THE LENS.
With the grill light lens removed, gently wipe any dirt or dust from the
inside of the lens using a non-abrasive cloth. Once the lens is cleaned and
throughly dried, carefully reinstall it to the grill light housing.
NOTE: Periodically wipe the lens with a damp cloth to keep the interior grill
light illuminating brightly.

FAQ’s
weber.com
FAQ’s
Still looking for more SMOKEFIRE content? Here some some of our most
frequently asked questions from consumers just like you:
•
Where does the temperature displayed on
my display screen & app come from?
ANSWER: There is a thermocouple (thermometer) located
in the center of the back wall of your grill that measures the
temperature. NOTE: Temperatures may vary in dierent parts of
the grill.
• Why is the temperature of my grill different
at different points in the grill, and how can I
prevent it?
ANSWER: All grills can have variability across the cooking
grate, especially at high searing temperatures. In order to
reduce this variability, it is important to keep the grill lid
closed as much as possible to prevent any change within the
cook box. As we say at WEBER, “looking ain’t cooking”.
• What can I do to reduce variability of the
grill temperature?
ANSWER: SMOKEFIRE was designed for lid down cooking
at high and low temperatures. Make sure that your grill
is preheated, with the lid closed, before adding food. As
SMOKEFIRE reaches its set temperature, heat will even out.
• Why should you use WEBER SMOKEFIRE ALL
NATURAL HARDWOOD PELLETS?
ANSWER: SMOKEFIRE was developed and optimized to work
with WEBER brand pellets. Other brands of pellets may
have a dierent size and shape profile which may aect the
performance of your SMOKEFIRE. It is important to make
sure that you use “fresh” pellets as older pellets may have
absorbed moisture which can cause issues with pellet flow
and grill performance.
