Smoking without an extra smoker oven? The VarioSmoker allows you
to cook and smoke food at the same time in your cooking system. This
saves valuable time and space. Give meat, fish, and vegetables aromatic
smoky flavors and unmistakable colors, you can define these yourself
according to your preferences.
In the iCombi Pro, the VarioSmoker is controlled intelligently via the
USB interface. Once the VarioSmoker has been connected to the
cooking system, cooking paths are displayed in the iCookingSuite which
guarantees an optimal smoking result.
To do this, simply connect the iCombi Pro and VarioSmoker via USB, start
the VarioSmoker and regulate it via the intelligent cooking paths. After
just a few minutes of heating up, the intelligence of the iCombi Pro will
deliver optimal and professional cooking and smoking result. You can
also use the VarioSmoker in all RATIONAL combi-steamers manufactured
from 1997 but in manual mode.
This application manual will help you achieve optimal and professional
cooking and smoking results both when using the intelligent cooking
paths in the iCombi Pro and when smoking manually in RATIONAL
combi-steamers.
Fill the VarioSmoker with wood chips, place it in your iCombi Pro on
a rack above or below the food, and close the cooking cabinet door. If
you are using the lowest rack level, slide another GN container over the
VarioSmoker to prevent it from being soiled by dripping fat.
