@bluemartini posted:I experienced the same problem with my Amerique. It's moisture in the smoker causing a slight leak that trips the GFI. If the Amerique sits to long, some moisture builds up inside. My solution:
1. Run an extension cord plugged to a NON-GFI outlet.
2. Set smoker to max TEMP (300).
3. Run for 30 mins.
4. Let cool down.
5. Move back to your outside GFI.
6. Smoke away.I have had my Amerique since 2006 and this works every time.
I LIKE that solution. Thanks!
