Grill Hints
To make sure you obtain the correct replacement part (s) for your
gas grill, please refer to the parts list on pages 9-15. The following
informa
tio
n is required to assure g
etting
the correct part. Please
note the shipping cost for the delivery of any replacement parts
will be on yourself.
The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium, or well done, is
a
ff
ected to a large degree by the thickness of the cut. Expert chefs
say it is impossible to have a rare doneness with a thin cut of
meat.
The cooking
ti
me is a
ff
ected by the kind of meat, the size and
shape of the cut, the temperature of the meat when cooking
begins, and the degree of doneness desired.
When defros
ti
ng meats it is recommended that it be done
overnight in the refrigerator as opposed to a microwave. This in
general yields a juicier cut of meat.
Use a spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat, as a
spatula will not puncture the meat and let the juices run out.
To get the juiciest meats, add seasoning or salt a
ft
er the cooking
is
fi
nished on each side and turn the meat only once (juices are
lost when the meat is turned several
ti
mes). Turn the meat just
a
ft
er the juices begin to bubble to the surface.
Trim any excess fat from the meat before cooking. To prevent
steaks or chops from curling during cooking, slit the fat around
the edges at 51mm / 2-in. intervals.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
