TO BOIL:
Follow instructions for steaming but leave the steaming plate out. Add as much water as necessary to
cover the foods being cooked, but never fill the Steamer/Fryer more than halfway.
TO FRY:
1. Remove the right grate and place the Steamer/Fryer into the grill as shown above.
2. Fill the Steamer/Fryer no more than one-third full with oil. Be careful not to spill oil
onto the burner as damage and / or fire will result.
3. Follow lighting instructions on page 12. Allow grill to preheat for no more than three
minutes, then reduce heat to no more than medium. Use an appropriate thermome-
ter to bring oil to proper frying temperature, usually between 350 °F ~ 375 °F.
4. Place the frying basket into the oil. Carefully add food one piece at a time using long
-handled tongs.
5. After food has fried for sufficient time, lift the entire frying basket out of the oil and
allow it to drain. Remove food to an appropriate vessel and return the frying basket
to the oil. Repeat as needed.
When finished frying, turn off heat and allow the grill, Steamer/Fryer and oil to cool completely before at-
tempting to remove unit. Dispose of used cooking oil appropriately.
