Grilling Tips and Hints

Burner Control Setting Tips
• The high flame setting is too hot for direct cooking. The high
flame setting is good for quick searing of meat, then finish
cooking on medium or low flame settings.
• Use the high flame setting with the lid closed to preheat the grill
for 5 minutes before cooking and with the lid closed for a maxi-
mum of 5 minutes after cooking to burn off grease drippings.
• Use a medium flame setting for direct cooking of steaks, pork
chops, chicken and hamburgers.
• Use a low flame setting for roasts.
• Thick steaks will finish with a better texture and more juice if
first seared on high flame setting and then cooked on a low
flame setting.
Safe Grill Operation
• NEVER leave cooking food unattended. Continually observing
the food will help in maintaining an even temperature, conserve
fuel, improve the food's flavor and lessen flare-ups.
• To open the grill lid, slowly lift the handle to avoid burning in
case of a grease fire flare-up.
• DO NOT expose any part of your body directly above the
cooking area.
Food Preparation Hints
Your grill can cook a variety of foods. For best results, follow these
instructions:
• Trim excess fat from meat and poultry. Slash any remaining fat
to stop curling, but take care not to cut the meat.
• Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed prior to cooking.
• Frozen fish and vegetables will cook without thawing.
• Salt food after cooking to help prevent drying out the food.
• Brush naturally lean meats with cooking oil or margarine.
• Cook small pieces of tender foods in foil or on special delicate-
food cooking grates (see the section titled "Cooking Methods").
• Apply barbecue, tomato or sugar-based sauces no sooner than
the last 10 minutes of cooking.
• Turn food with tongs or a spatula; piercing food (especially
meat), tends to dry it out.

In Case of Grease Fire

Follow These Steps:
1. Shut off the gas at the burner valve(s) and stay away!
2. Allow the fire to burn itself out.
3. Once the fire is out and the appliance has cooled, remove the
disposable cylinder.
4. Clean all parts and inspect for damage. Parts to check for
damage are the L.P. cylinder, regulator, burner valve(s) and
burner(s).
5. If any of the above mentioned components are damaged, seek
replacement from Coleman before operating the grill again.
Locate your nearest service center by calling 1-800-835-3278.
Note:
• Some flare-up adds a smoky flavor and sears food. Excessive
grease fires can cause a potentially hazardous situation and
damage the grill.
• Avoid excessive flare-ups by preheating the grill with the lid
closed for 5 minutes on the high setting to burn off grease from
previous cooking.
• Cook with the lid down and continually monitor cooking food to
avoid grease fires and flare-ups.
• Trimming excess fat from meat will reduce grease fires and flare-
ups. Cook fatty meat in smaller amounts over indirect heat on a
low setting.
• Be sure to follow the instructions in the section titled "Care,
Maintenance, and Cleaning".

Cooking Methods

Direct Method:
• The heat source is directly below the food.
• Use for browning meat or cooking hot dogs and hamburgers, but
check food frequently.
• Use for skillet and stir-fry cooking, but limit the amount of oil
and heat to be used.
• Cook roasts, turkey or duck on low heat. Place meat with
water in a foil pan with a corrugated bottom. Replenish water
as needed.
Indirect Method:
• Light only one side of the burner and place food on the opposite
side for cooking.
• Allow food to cook at a lower temperature which increases
tenderness and reduces grease flare-ups.
• It is a good method for cooking foods that burn easily (vegetables,
fish, etc.).
• Cook casseroles in ovenware or foil pans much like
cooking in a conventional oven.
• Also try placing a pan of water above the lit burner side to
help meat retain its juices. Replenish the water as needed.
