USING ADJUSTABLE COOKING HEIGHT
This grill has a unique hinge that allows the grill cover to adjust to the thickness
of food. For even browning and cooking, when grilling more than one sandwich or
piece of meat, it is important that the thickness of each be about the same.
COOKING GUIDE
**
The following chart is meant to be used as a guideline only. Cooking time will depend
on the thickness of the food. To be sure your food is cooked, USDA recommends
using a meat thermometer to test for doneness. Insert the meat thermometer into the
thickest part of the meat until the temperature stabilizes.
