Indirect Cooking
Not cooking directly over hot coals is ideal for slow cooking and grilling foods requiring
more than 25 minutes, such as most roasts, loins, chops, whole chickens, turkey, fish and baked goods.
1.
Remove cooking grid.
2.
Load and light charcoal per “Lighting” section.
3.
While wearing protective gloves, carefully spread hot coals
to the outsides of charcoal grid with a long-handle tool.
(Please refer to the picture ‘Indirect-Cooking’ for how to set
the coals.)
4.
While wearing protective gloves, replace cooking grid, and
allow grill to preheat.
5.
Use long-handled tools to place food onto cooking
grids above the areas without hot coals.
6.
Cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved.
Note: If additional briquettes are needed, remove food from
cooking grid and, while wearing protective gloves, remove the
cooking grid and place additional briquettes without disturbing
the hot coals. Carefully replace cooking grid and food.
7.
Allow charcoal to burn out by closing all vents. Except in the case of an emergency,
do NOT pour water on hot coals.
Turning Off
1. Allow charcoal to completely extinguish itself.
WARNING: Do NOT use water to extinguish. This can be dangerous and cause damage.
2.
Dispose of the ashes in a proper location.
Controlling Flare-ups:
CAUTION: Do NOT use water on a grease fire. This can cause the
grease to splatter and could result in serious burns, bodily harm or
other damage.
CAUTION: Do NOT leave grill unattended while preheating or burning
off food residue. If grill has not been cleaned, a grease fire can occur
that may damage the product.
WARNING: When cooking, fire extinguishing materials should be
readily accessible. In the event of an oil/grease fire, use a type BC dry
chemical fire extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda.
DO NOT attempt to extinguish with water.
Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a grill and add to the unique flavor of grilling.
Excessive flare-ups can over-cook your food and be dangerous.
Important: Excessive flare-ups result from the build-up of grease in the bottom of your grill.
If a grease fire occurs, wait until the grease burns out.
If excessive flare-ups occur, do
NOT
pour water onto the flames.
