Storing Your
Patio Oven
•
Clean cooking stone.
•
Store in dry location.
•
When an LP cylinder is connected to Patio
Oven, store outdoors in a well-ventilated space
and out of reach of children.
•
Cover Patio Oven if stored outdoors. Choose
from a variety of Patio Oven covers offered
by Blackstone.
•
Store Patio Oven indoors ONLY if LP cylinder
is turned off and disconnected, removed from
Patio Oven and stored outdoors.
•
When removing Patio Oven from storage,
follow Cleaning the Burner Assembly
instructions below before starting griddle.
Cleaning the Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace
parts of burner assembly, or if you have trouble
igniting the Patio Oven.
1. Turn gas OFF at control knob and LP cylinder.
2. Remove upper cover (Part 10 on Parts List).
3. Remove heat shield and aluminum cover,
stone and rotating panel.
4. Detach electrode from burner.
NOTE:
Removal/Detachment method will
depend on the burner configuration.
5. Carefully lift burner up and away from valve
openings. We suggest three ways to clean the
burner tubes. Use the one easiest for you. (A)
Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger
works well) into a small hook. Run the hook
through burner tube several times. (B) Use a
narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do
not use a brass wire brush). Run the brush
through burner tube several times. (C) Wear
eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out of the burner ports.
Check each port to make sure air comes out
each hole.
6. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to
remove food residue and dirt.
7. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire, such
as an open paper clip.
8. Check burner for damage. Due to normal wear
and corrosion, some holes may become
enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are
found, replace burner.
VERY IMPORTANT:
reengage valve openings.
9. Attach electrode to burner.
10. Carefully replace burners.
Burner tubes must
11. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.
12. Reposition carryover tubes and attach to
burner.
Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying
the outdoor cooking experience. To keep food
safe from harmful bacteria, follow these four
basic steps:
Clean:
Wash hands, utensils and surfaces with
hot soapy water before and after handling raw
meat and poultry.
Separate:
Separate raw meats and poultry
from ready-to-eat foods to avoid cross
contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils
when removing cooked foods.
Cook:
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill
bacteria. Use a thermometer to ensure proper
internal food temperatures.
Chill:
Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers
promptly. For more information, visit the
Canadian Partnership for Consumer Food
Safety Education at www.befood safe.ca.
How To Tell if Meat is Grilled Thoroughly
•
Meat and poultry cooked on a griddle or
oven often browns very fast on the outside.
Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has
reached a safe internal temperature, and cut
into food to check for visual signs of being
done.
•
Whole poultry should reach 165° F/74°C.
Juices should run clear, and flesh should not
be pink.
•
Hamburgers made of any ground meat or
poultry should reach 160° F/71°C and be
brown in the middle with no pink juices. Beef,
veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can
be cooked to 145° F/63°C . All cuts of pork
should reach 160° F/71°C.
•
NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish
cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy
harmful bacteria.
•
When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked
meats, such as hot dogs, grill to 165° F/64°C.
•
Follow these guidelines when cooking these
types of meats on your pizza.
