FOOD SAFETY:
•
Always adhere to the following tips to enjoy a safe and healthy outdoor grilling.
•
Always use hot soapy water to wash hands, surfaces & utensils after processing raw meat.
•
Always separate the raw meats from done foods to avoid cross contamination
•
Always use clean utensils to handle the food.
•
Always cook the meat thoroughly to kill germs. If in doubt, use a meat thermometer to inspect the inner
temperature of the meat.
•
Place all foodstuffs promptly into refrigerator once the meal is over, to prevent spoiling.
1.
GENERAL:
•
The thickness of the meat will affect the grilling time and results; whether rare, medium, or well done.
•
The pre-heated temperature of the grill affects grilling time and results.
•
Defrost meat in the refrigerator overnight. Do not use a microwave, as this dries out the meat.
•
To get the juiciest meats, use appropriate cooking times and temperatures.
•
Cut off any excess fat from the meat before grilling, as this will prevent flame flare ups.
•
The hot grids sear the food, caramelizing it for optimal flavor. The longer your grill is the preheated, the faster the
meat will sear.
2.
USING THE GRILLING SURFACE (Cook Grids):
•
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning.
•
Some foods are cooked at the HI heat setting for the entire cooking time.
•
When grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary to turn
the heat to a lower setting, after the initial searing. This allows the food to
cook through without burning the outside.
•
Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a
sugary marinade may need a lower heat setting near the end of the
cooking time.
•
Turn the control knob(s) to HI and preheat the grill for 8 minutes. (Time may vary based on climate) Note: Keep the
grill closed during preheating.
•
Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired doneness. Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The control knobs
may be set to any position between HI and LOW.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
CAUTION:
•
Keep the grill area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids
•
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
•
Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris.
•
Ensure that the grill is completely cold before performing any cleaning and maintenance.
•
Burning off deposits and soiling by turning the main burners on high for about 5 minutes after each use will keep
excessive food residue from building up, but this DOES NOT replace proper cleaning and maintenance.
!WARNING!
Clean your grill often, especially the grease pan and grease cup. Failure
to do so may cause a grease fire, resulting in injury or property damage!
!WARNING!
Do not leave grill unattended while
cooking! Potential BURN and FIRE RISK!
!WARNING!
When cooking fatty meats, check
grease levels in the grease pan,
in order to prevent a grease fire.
