Regulating Heat
To increase heat, more wood and/or charcoal may be needed. Follow instructions in
“Adding Charcoal/Wood
During Cooking
” section of this manual.
To maintain the temperature, more wood and/or charcoal may need to be added during the cooking cycle.
NOTE: Dry wood burns hotter than charcoal, so you may want to increase the ratio of wood to charcoal to
increase the cooking temperature. Hardwood such as oak, hickory, mesquite, fruit and nut wood are an
excellent fuel because of their burning rate. When using wood as fuel, make sure the wood is seasoned
and dry.
DO NOT use
resinous wood such as
pine
as it will produce an unpleasant taste.
Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cooking

Step 3
Stand back a safe distance and
use long cooking tongs
to lightly brush aside ashes on hot coals. Use cooking
tongs to add charcoal and/or wood to the bowl of the grill, being careful not to stir-up ashes and sparks. If
necessary, use your Charcoal Chimney Starter to light additional charcoal and/or wood and add to existing fire.
