CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cooking surface preparation

Before using your BeefEater barbecue

Your BeefEater barbecue will feature either of the following 

cooking surfaces�

1�    Standard cast iron grills

2�    ‘RF Technology’ - porcelain coated grills or

3�    Stainless steel grills

Each system has different care and maintenance 

requirements so it is important to read the correct 

instructions for the system supplied with your barbecue�

Standard cast iron grills - non porcelain coated

1�    Wash the cooking grills thoroughly with hot water and a 

mild dishwashing liquid� Dry immediately� Do not allow 

them to drip dry�

2�    Coat the entire surface of the grills, top and bottom, with 

a generous layer of vegetable oil� Do not use salted fats 

such as butter or margarine�

3�    Place the grills on the barbecue and light all burners 

(see ‘Lighting your Barbecue’ on page 6)� If your 

barbecue is fitted with a roasting hood, close the hood 

and then turn off all but two burners� Set the remaining 

burners to Medium until a medium heat is achieved 

(195ºC - 385ºF)� On two burner models, set both burners 

to Low�

4�    After 10 minutes, turn all burners off and allow the unit 

to completely cool�

5�    After the cast iron grills have completely cooled, remove 

them from the barbecue and recoat them with vegetable 

oil� The curing process is now complete� Refit the grills 

to the barbecue and preheat prior to cooking�

6�    To prevent rust from forming, the above seasoning or 

curing process should be repeated frequently�

7�    If rust does form, clean with a brass wire bristle brush 

and repeat the seasoning and curing process� If your 

barbecue is positioned near water or in a marine 

environment, the seasoning process may need to be 

repeated more frequently�

RF Technology - porcelain enamel coated grills

Wash the cooking grills thoroughly with hot water and a mild 

dishwashing liquid� Coat the entire surface of the grills with 

a layer of cooking oil before you commence cooking� Fit the 

grills to the barbecue and preheat prior to cooking�

Stainless steel grills

Wash the cooking grills thoroughly with hot water and a mild 

dishwashing liquid� Coat the entire surface of the grills with 

a layer of cooking oil before you commence cooking� Fit the 

grills to the barbecue and preheat prior to cooking�

Cleaning the cooking surfaces

Each system has specific care, cleaning and maintenance 

requirements so it is important to read the correct 

instructions for the system supplied with your barbecue�

Standard cast iron grills - non porcelain coated

Many food acids, marinades, juices and sauces contain 

highly acidic elements that will slowly attack the surface of 

the cast iron if not removed immediately after cooking�

•  After use, remove all solid material from the cooking 

surfaces using a brass bristle brush or plastic scourer� 

Brushes specifically designed for this purpose can 

be purchased from your BeefEater retailer� Wipe off 

remaining residue with a paper towel�

•  Coat the grills with a layer of cooking oil� This will 

protect the grills between barbecuing sessions� Do not 

clean the cooking grills in a dishwashing machine�

•  Do not use highly caustic, harsh or abrasive chemical 

cleaners to clean the cooking grills� (Always check the 

manufacturer’s specifications and recommendations 

prior to use)�

•  Before each subsequent use, preheat your BeefEater  

for 10 minutes before cooking� Allow the unit to cool off 

and then remove any remains from previous cooking� 

Wipe off with a paper towel and then lightly coat with a 

layer of cooking oil� The cooking surfaces are now ready 

for barbecuing�

•  To prevent rust from forming, the above seasoning or 

curing process should be repeated frequently�

•  If rust does form, clean with a brass wire bristle brush 

and repeat the seasoning curing process� If your 

barbecue is positioned near water or in a marine 

environment, then the seasoning process may need to 

be repeated even more frequently�
