New Bradley Smoker

[macfan]

Hello,

I just unwrapped my new Bradley digital this weekend (formerly used a Weber Bullet).  Have a few questions.  How tight should the smoker box fit to the unit? And should the biscuit tube be straight or at an angle (mine connects at an angle).  Looking forward to seasoning it tomorrow.  Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

The generator (smoking box) should be hung on the two studs that are on the side of the cabinet. As long as it is properly on those two studs, it's on properly. The generator will be flush with the cabinet, but not a tight seal. It doesn't have to be tight, the air and heat, will draw the smoke into the cabinet, as long as you have draft properly adjusted.

The bisquette tube needs to be straight. If the problem is not due to the generator being built improperly, then you have not inserted the tub properly. Some force it needed to get the tube to set properly, but not too much force. The tube fits tightly into it's fitting, some you may have to slightly rock the tube from side to side slightly as you push down, making sure it is fully inserted.

I'v got a new digital Bradley. The smoker box fit loose when mounted on the studs. I took the screw out of each of the studs and removed the lock washer and it fits more snug now and looks better. Hope this helps. Craig
