4. Place charcoal in to or three 3 even piles in the firebox and ignite according to manufacturer’s
recommendations. Follow all caution and safety measures set forth in this manual and on the
charcoal manufacturer’s packaging.
5. When coals are ready, evenly distribute them throughout the firebox creating a thickness of 1-2
briquettes for idea cooking
6. The grill top is designed for direct cooking only - so place food directly on grill top. Placing pots,
pans, or other cooking accessories on grill can be dangerous and is not recommended.

Before placing grill top over hot coals
, coat generously with vegetable oil or cooking spray to
prevent food from sticking.
8. Select the desired cooking height and slide the grill top onto the firebox.
9. Add 10-15 lbs. of charcoal each hour while the grill is in use to maintain temperature

the coals directly to extinguish and cool area.
11. Immediately after cooking, remove grill grate and set aside to cool. This will aid in the clean-up and
prevent grease from baking onto the grill top.
12. After the coals are cold, crumble the aluminum foil with ash inside and dispose of in an approved
