Cooking Instructions
Grill Use : We recommend preheating the grill by operating it with the lid closed for approximately 20
minutes. The coals are ready when they have a light coating of grey ash. Food cooked for short periods
of time (fish, vegetables) can be grilled with the lid open. Cooking with the lid closed ensures higher,
more even temperatures that will reduce cooking time and cook the food more evenly. When cooking
very lean meat, such as chicken breast or lean pork, the grids can be oiled before preheating to reduce
sticking. Cooking meat with a high degree of fat content may create flare-ups. Either trim the fat or
reduce temperatures to inhibit this. Should a flare-up occur, move food away from flames; reduce the heat
(reduce vent opening). Leave the lid open.
As a general rule, plan on using about 50 briquettes to cook 2 lb. (1kg) of meat. If cooking for more than
30 to 40 minutes, additional briquettes must be added to the fire. When the weather is cold or windy, you
will need more briquettes to reach ideal cooking temperatures.
Initial Lighting : When lit for the first time, the grill emits a slight odor. This is a normal temporary
condition caused by the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and
does not occur again. Simply burn the grill on high for approximately 30 minutes with the lid and base
vents fully open.
Operating The Vents : Lid vents on a covered grill are usually left open to allow air into the grill. Air
increases the burning temperature of the coals. You can regulate the grill’s temperature by moving
the vent slide to the right or left. Closing the vents either partially or completely will help to cool down
the coals. Do not completely close the air vents and the lid vent unless you are trying to cool down or
extinguish a flame.
After Use Safety
WARNING!
To protect yourself and your property from damage, carefully follow these safety
precautions.
• Close the grill lid and all vents to extinguish fire.
• Always allow the grill to cool completely before handling.
• Never leave coals and ashes in grill unattended. Make sure coals and ashes are completely
extinguished before removing.
• Use a metal spatula or scoop to remove remaining coals and ashes from grill. Place them in a
non-combustible metal container and completely saturate with water. Leave in container an
additional 24 hours before disposing.
Adding Charcoal During Cooking : Use caution when adding charcoal to the grill. Flames may flare up
when coals come in contact with fresh air. Stand back a safe distance and use a long-handled heat-
resistant cooking tongs to add additional charcoal briquettes.
WARNING!
Never add charcoal starter fluid to hot or warm coals. Once charcoal is ignited no
more fluid is required.
