General Overview
Now that you are ready to begin cooking, you can enjoy
cooking outdoors quickly and effortlessly. In minutes,
you can enjoy steaks, hamburgers, poultry, pork chops,
roasts, fish and other foods. You can also cook more
slowly if you wish. TEC’s optional accessories are
designed to enhance your grill’s versatility.
Infra-red Searing Method
Searing is a process that seals juices in food by cooking
with intense heat for a short period of time. The juices
stay in the food where they belong and the outside gets
coated with flavorful grilling aroma. For best results,
follow these procedures when cooking.
The intense infrared energy generated by your TEC grill
has many advantages. For example, food is evenly cooked
throughout. Also, grease and food particles incinerate on
contact with the burner and convert into flavor
enhancing smoke.
Searing Method
1. Follow the Burner Operation procedures and operate
the grill for 15 minutes.
2. Set the Burner Output Knob to HIGH and place
the food on Cooking Grid for 2-3 minutes, or until
food lifts without sticking.
3. Turn the food and repeat step 2.
4. Depending upon your taste, continue cooking on
HIGH, turning the food frequently, or adjust the
Burner Output Knob between low and MEDIUM
and continue cooking until the food is cooked to
your satisfaction. Turn as necessary (generally every 2
to 3 minutes).
During the searing process, flashing may occur when
juices vaporize on contact with the Cooking Grid and
Burner surface. The flashes and smoke greatly enhance
the flavor by charbroiling your food.
Helpful Hints In Cooking
1. Use the proper cooking tools, long handled tongs,
spatula, knife, mitts and a hot pad for handling hot
items. When turning or moving foods, use tongs or
a spatula, instead of a fork. Piercing the food with a
fork lets the natural juices and flavor escape.
2. Start slowly. Infra-red grilling is unlike other outdoor
cooking methods. It may take you time to perfect
the fast cooking process that results at higher burner
output levels. Please refer to the section entitled
SAMPLE COOKING METHODS
on page 9.
