Lighting your grill
1. Make sure the lid and vents are open.
2. Remove the cooking grid. Pile adequate amounts of charcoal in the center of the charcoal grid and shape into a pyramid.
3. If you are using regular charcoal and intend to use lighter fluid, apply fluid according to the instruction on the container.
Allow lighter fluid to soak into the charcoal for approximately 1 minute before lighting.
4. If you are using an electric fire starter, do not add lighter fluid or lighter charcoal in accordance with the manufacturer’s
fire starter instructions.
5. If you are using instant-light charcoal, do not use alternate lighting methods.
6. Allow the charcoal to burn approximately 15-20 minutes or until all the charcoal is lightly coated with gray ash.
7.
Do not draw the wire handle toward the top of the lid handle to lock the lid while cooking .
Cooking Styles
1. Direct Grilling : When the coals are covered with ash, use a long-handled cooking utensil and protective cooking mitts to
spread the charcoal evently over the charcoal grid. Place the cooking grid back onto the grill and arrange the food onto
the cooking grid. Food can be cooked with the lid open or close.
.
2. Indirect Grilling : When the charcoal is covered with ash, use a long-handled cooking utensil and protective cooking mitts
to arrange the charcoal in a donut shape. Leave an open space in the center. Place a small drip pan (not included) in the
center of the charcoal to catch the drippings.
3. Smoking : Soak any fragrant wood chips in water overnight so they will not burn when placed on the charcoal. After
spreading the charcoal, according to direct cooking method above, place wood chips on top of the charcoal. Cook with
lid closed and the cooking grid, if adjustable, set to its highest setting.
Helpful Hints
1. Store charcoal in a dry place. If storing outside, seal the charcoal in a waterproof container.
2. During cooking, if the lid is not hinged, lift it to one side instead of staright up. Lifting the lid straight up could create a
vaccum within the grill that could suck ash into the food.
3. When cleaning the grill, DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. It could damage parts of the grill. Clean the grids and pans with
mild detergent. Rince thoroughly with water. Remove and dispose of ash properly.
