soak the wood in water
for 30 minutes or wrap each piece in foil and tear several small holes in
the foil to produce more smoke and prevent the wood from burning too quickly. Only a few pieces of
wood are required to obtain good smoke flavor. A recommended amount for the grill is 5 to 6 wood
chunks. Experiment by using more wood for stronger smoke flavor or less wood for milder smoke flavor.
Additional flavoring wood should not have to be added during the cooking process. However, it may be
necessary when cooking very large cuts of food. Follow instructions and cautions in the “Adding
Charcoal / Wood During Cooking” section of this manual to
avoid injury while adding wood

Proper Care & Maintenance
Cure your grill periodically throughout the year to protect against excessive rust.
To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be covered at all times when not in use.
Wash cooking grates and charcoal grid with hot, soapy water, rinse well and dry.
Clean inside and outside of grill by wiping off with a damp cloth. Apply a light coat of vegetable oil or
vegetable oil spray to the interior surface to prevent rusting. Do not coat charcoal grate.
If rust appears on the exterior surface of your grill, clean and buff the affected area with steel wool
or fine grit emery cloth. Touch-up with a good quality high-temperature resistant paint.
Never apply paint to the interior surface. Rust spots on the interior surface can be buffed, cleaned,
and then lightly coated with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray to minimize rusting.
