SAVANNAH STOKER v4 INSTRUCTION MANUAL
SAVANNAH STOKER v4 TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER
Thank-you for purchasing the Savannah Stoker Pellet Grill Control
System. The Savannah Stoker is a PID based artificial intelligent
temperature controller that allows you to control your wood pellet grill or
smoker with "simplicity but infinite control".
FEATURES
• Set the desired cooking/smoking temperature from 150°- 550°F
or the max temperature your grill can reach in 1° increments.
• Typical temperature swings are 5-10°F when cooking above
250°F and 10-15°F when smoking below 225°F.
• Hardwired permanent installed temperature sensor, compatible
with the OEM temperature sensor.
• Cool-down cycle. The fan runs until the grill temperature drops
below 120°F.
• Auto-relight. The controller will attempt to relight the fire if the
grill temperature drops too low below the set temperature. If the
fire does not relight; the cool down cycle automatically starts.
• 3 Phase Cooking Program: Smoke, Cook, Hold. Set the time
and temperature for each phase in the cooking process.
• Food Probe: For use with the cooking program or standalone to
monitor the food temperature.
• Auger Bypass. Press a button and the auger runs 100% to get
to grilling temperatures faster.
• Optional interface with the STOKER® Power Draft System from
Rocks Bar-B-Que. Add the features of the STOKER like remote
temperature control and monitoring from a computer or
Smartphone or graph the cook with StokerLog running on a PC.
Requires an optional cable. The STOKER is available from
http://www.rocksbarbque.com.
Compatibility
The Savannah Stoker is a direct replacement temperature controller for
most Traeger Wood Pellet Grills but it will not fit in the Traeger Junior or the
PTG. It will also control most smokers made by Smokin Brothers, Blaz'n
Grills Works, Royall Wood Pellet Grills (except the tailgater), Camp Chef
Pellet Grill & Smoker, and Smoke Daddy Pellet Pro. The Savannah Stoker
maybe compatible with other wood pellet grills but may requiring
modifications to the grill or wiring connectors.
WARNING Electrical Shock Risk!
Electrical power is present to the controller
anytime the grill is connected to an AC Power
Source. Before attempting to remove or install
the controller the grill must be disconnected
from the AC Power Source. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury from electrical
shock and/or damage to the controller. When
not in use the grill should be disconnected from
the AC Power Source. The controller should be
protected from moisture at all times. It is highly
recommended the grill be connected to a GFCI
outlet or other protected circuit when in use.
