remove the LP gas cylinder.

COOKING/GRILLING TIPS
1.The best oils to use when grilling meats are high-temperature
oils(i.e., peanut, canola, safflower, and cottonseed oils).
2.Dry off meat prior to grilling. Dry meat browns; wet meat steams.
3.Grill with the firebox hood down.
4.Keep grates clean. A clean grate is less likely to be sticky and will
last longer.
5.Clean the firebox hood and inside the firebox often. A grease
build-up is a fire hazard and adds unwanted flavors to your fresh
food.
6.Before lighting the burner, spray grates with non-stick spray to
prevent food from sticking.
7.Always preheat the grill for 10-15 minutes prior to use.
8.Before you start grilling, organize the food by cooking technique,
required cooking time, and grilling area required.
9.Sauces containing sugars and fats can cause flare-ups and burn
your food. Apply these sauces only in the last10 minutes of cooking.
10.Marinades and rubs enhance the flavor of food. A dry rub or
liquid marinade can be used prior to cooking.
FOOD SAFETY
1.Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water before

2.Keep raw meat separate from ready-to-eat foods.
3.Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked food from
the grill.
4.Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria.
5.Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper internal temperature of
meat.
