temperature and sit back and enjoy.   

 

We all have our favorite recipes and cooking tricks. We suggest you experiment with your new grill to 

discover just how many ways it adds to your outdoor cooking experience. With little time and effort, you'll 

amaze your friends and family with your impressive culinary skills. Like many of us you'll find that your 

Memphis Wood Fired Convection Grill will become your cooking appliance of choice; eliminating heat and 

odors from cooking indoors while giving you unbeatable results. 

 

Before you get started, take a few moments to 

register your grill 

and write your model and serial 

number in the space provided. This will register your warranty and make it quick and easy to reference 

this information in the future.  Your model and serial number are located on the sticker under the hopper 

lid.  Be sure to complete and mail in the Warrantee and Registration card on page 25.
