LIGHTING
5
Step 1:
Set the intake dampers to wide open to let the maximum
amount of air in to fuel the fire.
Step 2:
Open the lid on the cook box, remove the cooking grid and
fill the charcoal tray with roughly ½ kg (1 lbs.) of charcoal.
As you become more familiar with the GrillPro® Charcoal
Grill, you will get a feel for how much charcoal you need for
various cook times and temperatures.
Step 3:
If using starter sticks, light them and place into the top of
the charcoal bed at two or three locations.
If using a stainless steel chimney starter, fill the GrillPro®
Charcoal Chimney Starter (Item # 39470) with charcoal. Fill
the bottom of the chimney starter with one or two pieces of
newspaper. Place the chimney starter on the charcoal grate
in the fire box. Once charcoal is lit, add carefully to the
charcoal tray on top of unlit charcoal. Once lit, arrange
charcoal in the trays, and replace cooking grids.
Note: Charcoal burns hotter with more access to airflow,
having the lid open when grilling will produce more intense
heat.
Step 4:
Allow the charcoal to ignite with the lid open until charcoal
is aflame.
Step 5:
Adjust dampers to achieve desired temperature - Start
closing dampers 50 degrees before target temperature.
SHUTTING DOWN:
When you’re ready to shut down the Broil King® Smoke™
Offset Smoker, close the dampers to snuff the fire out
completely
