Pellet smokers are designed to be a “Set and forget” method of smoking. Simply set the pellet smoker to the desired temperature and as long as you don’t run out of power or pellets, you’re smoker will keep smoking away all night. If your smoker has not got audio alarms, we would recommend the use of a remote meat thermometer to measure your smoking and meat temperature during your cook and alarm you if something goes wrong. It is also a good idea to keep the smoker well away from any combustible materials just in case there is a malfunction.
