Performance Tips
Preheating
It is important to allow your grill to preheat and achieve your desired cooking temperature before
cooking. This allows the entire grill to heat up and quickly return to your desired temperature
once your food is introduced. If you do not allow the grill to preheat, you will find that it takes a
longer period of time to bring both the grill and the food to your desired cooking temperature.
Pellet Information
Pellets should be stored in a dry area, as wet pellets will swell and turn back into sawdust.
For
best results, always use premium hardwood pellets in your grill.
The use of grades other
than premium hardwood pellets may result in temperature variations, uneven cooking, and poor
results. Remember pellets do not contain preservatives and will deteriorate over time. Always
Store pellets in a cool dry place. Never load wet pellets into the grill
Caution: Heating fuel pellets for home heating pellet stoves have a high content of
softwood which can include glue and should NEVER be used for cooking. Always check
with the pellet manufacturer to ensure that you are cooking with a premium 100%
hardwood pellet.
Lid Position
Always cook with the lid closed. Use the meat probe to check the meats temperature. A open lid allows
heat to escape and sends false temperature information to the digital control. This will also hinder the
natural convection air flow needed to produce the wood smoke and flavor. The open lid will also
increase your cook time. Remember
“If you are looking you are not cooking”
