GRILL PREPARATION & 

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

PLEASE NOTE: NO RETURNS ON USED GRILLS 

Read all safety warnings and instructions carefully 

Before assembling and operating your grill.

 

1. 

Cure GRILL prior to your initial use to protect the interior and exterior finish and 
to prevent unnatural flavors to your first meals. (A) Lightly coat ALL INTERIOR 
SURFACES (including GRILLS, GRATES, AND INSIDE OF BARREL.) with vegetable 
oil (spray vegetable oil is easiest but do not use near hot coals or fire). (B) Build 
a medium sized fire on the fire grate. (C) After coals ash over, spread out coals, 
replace cooking grates, close lid and heat at approximately 250 F for two hours. 
Re-coat GRATES and return to grill at approximately 200 F for two hours. You 
can lightly coat the exterior of the grill body (while warm) with vegetable oil. This 
will extend the life of the finish, much like waxing a car. Your GRILL will then be 
ready for use. NOTE: Grill will drip a lot of oil during this process and for several 
uses but will slow over time. 

NEVER EXCEED 400 BECAUSE THIS WILL DAM-

AGE THE FINISH AND CONTRIBUTE TO RUST. PAINT IS NOT WARRANTED AND 
WILL REQUIRE TOUCH-UP. THIS UNIT IS NOT WARRANTED AGAINST RUST. 

2.   To START FIRE 

 stack 15 briquettes in pyramid and saturate with lighter fluid 

(DON’T USE GASOLINE). Light coals in several places, close lid after briquettes 

ash  over or _ gray, spread them out and start cooking. If one end burns faster, 
use tongs to move coals from one end to the other for even heat. ALWAYS FOL-

LOW CHARCOAL AND LIGHTER FLUID MANUFACTURERS’ 

INSTRUCTIONS AND 

WARNINGS. USE OUTDOORS ONLY ON NONCOMBUSTIBLE SURFACE 

 

15’ 

AWAY FROM WOOD AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. 

3.   Control heat with amount and type of FUEL, DUAL DAMPERS and ADJUSTABLE 

FIRE GRATE. Adjust GRATE one end at a time. Wood burns hotter than coals. 
More airflow is more heat. 

4.    For no flare-ups, cook with lid in the down position. Add water soaked hardwood 

chips for a smoked flavor. 

5.   Suggestion: Screw 3/4'" cup hooks (not furnished) on front of the wood shelf to 

hang cooking utensils. 

6.    Burn out may be rust out. Ashes left in bottom too long hold moisture and rust 

through any thickness of steel. This grill is made of steel and cast iron, which 
WILL RUST, ESPECIALLY IF NOT PROPERLY CARED FOR. 

7.    Do not use self-starting charcoal as it will give unnatural flavor. Burn lighter flu-

id completely before closing lid. 

8.  After using, coat vegetable oil on interior grates and bare metal while warm to 

reduce rust. On the EXTERIOR, remove dust with wire brush and touch up with a 
high heat paint, available at most hardware/auto stores. 

9. You may place a coffee can on bottom shelf under the hole in the grill to catch 

drippings. 

10. HEAT GAUGE may obtain moisture, which will steam out during cooking. Gauge 

may be calibrated in oven. 

11. You may fill unwanted holes with Nuts & Bolts (Not Provided). NOTE: Smoke will 

escape from areas other than the smokestack. This should not affect your cook-
ing.
