Charcoal Cooking Guide

Charcoal is the traditional way of cooking that we are all familiar with. The glowing briquettes emit

infrared energy to the food being cooked, with very little drying effect. Any juices or oils that escape

from the food drip down onto the charcoal and vaporize into smoke giving the food its delicious grilled

taste. The bottom line is that Napoleon’s charcoal grill produces searing heat for juicier, tastier steaks,

hamburgers and other meats. For cooking times and tips refer to the Charcoal Grilling Chart.
The following grilling chart is meant to be a guideline only. Cooking times are affected by such factors as

altitude, outside temperature, wind, and desired doneness, which will be reflected in your cooking time.

Use a meat thermometer to ensure foods are adequately cooked.
