PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve production of a smoked food product in high productivity by executing preheating of a food material before smoking as a continuous treatment, without requiring much labor, and without a trouble.SOLUTION: A food material 1 is filled into a container 2 transmissible by a micro-wave, conveyed together with the container 2, introduced into a heating chamber, and heated by radiating the micro-wave thereto, while applying pressing force thereto through a lid plate 3 of the container 2 in the heating chamber. The heated food material 1 is taken out from the container 2 from which the lid plate 3 is removed on the outlet side of the heating chamber, and sent out to a smoking step.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】燻製処理前の食材の予備加熱を連続処理として実施し、高い生産性での燻製食品の製造を多くの手間を要さず、また不具合を伴わずに実現する。【解決手段】食材１は、マイクロ波の透過性を有する容器２に充填し、該容器２と共に搬送して加熱室に導入し、該加熱室内で容器２の蓋板３を介して押圧力を加えつつマイクロ波を照射して加熱する。加熱された食材１は、加熱室の出側で蓋板３を取り外した容器２から取り出し、燻製処理の工程に送り出す。【選択図】図１
