Fueling the Grill
Professional Series Grill Installation and Operation Manual
LUMP CHARCOAL
(we recommend Mesquite lump charcoal) is a carefully
produced carbonized product that burns at a higher temperature for a longer
period of time than live coals resulting from a natural wood fire. Using lump
charcoal as the main source of heat simplifies grill temperature management and
is often the only fuel used when kitchen theater isn't a consideration.
6.
Once the fire is well established use the Grate Tool to distribute the coals in the
firebox, with about 3" deep in the back, tapering to 1-1/2" deep in the front.
8.
To optimize heat and energy, pull live coals forward out of the fire. Do not pull
wood with open flame forward. Cooking over an open flame tends to burn fat,
making food taste bitter.

MAINTAINING THE FIREBOX
7.
Place two medium pieces of wood on either side of the center flame every
20–30 minutes. The height of the open the flame, 5–10 inches as measured
from the top of the coal bed, controls the amount of live coals generated, and
by extension, the temperature.
As necessary, add charcoal to maintain coal bed level, remembering it takes
about 15–30 minutes for charcoal to ignite and significantly contribute to the
coal bed. Proper firebox maintenance requires taking this delay into account
to optimize temperature consistency and minimize over firing.
See the FUELWOOD FACTS section on page 15 of this manual, for more information about fuel characteristics.
