>From what I can see at their website, it is a standard hot smoker. You
build your fire
at the bottom, add wet wood chips to it and put the food in the racks
to smoke it.

You would need to monitor the foods to make sure you don't overcook or
oversmoke them.

If you are looking for precise amounts of wood chips, etc, that is
going to vary with the
size of your smoker, what you want to smoke, and how smoky you want it.
