Where is it hottest?

Former Member

I see lots of folk saying that it's hotter on the top of the oven-which makes perfect sense. But the literature that came with my new Smokette seems to say that meat on the top will be less cooked than meat on the lower shelves. Can some one reconcile these seemingly inconsistant facts....Zacher

Put a thermometer inside on each of the levels and you'll see that when the heating element is "on" the bottom shelf is the hottest. When it finishes it's cycle, then the top eventually becomes the hottest, as the heat rises.

Does that help?

Mornin',

I think maybe Cookshack is saying that down closer to the heat element/wood box,you are getting more radiant or direct heat off the box.

I don't think you will find significant differences in cook times between the top and middle racks.
