Lighting the fuel
WARNING! RISK OF BURNS!
•
If petrol or methylated spirits are used for ignition purposes, explosion-
triggered uncontrollable heat generation may occur. Therefore, only ever use
non-hazardous fuels, such as solid BBQ igniters. When using the barbecue,
it must be placed on a stable and flat surface.
Note: To light the charcoal perfectly, the use of a charcoal chimney starter is
recommended (not included in the package).
•
Make sure the barbecue is clean.
•
Open the air vents to maximise the amount of oxygen available while the barbecue coals
are getting started.
•
Place a layer of charcoal or briquettes (not included) in the base of the barbecue.
•
Lay one or two fire starters (not included) on top of the charcoal bed. Light them with a
match.
•
Let the fire starters burn for 2 to 4 minutes. Then, piece by piece, add the charcoal or
briquettes in such a way as to create a pyramid.
•
After approx. 30 minutes, a layer of white ash should have formed on the charcoal or
briquettes. This indicates that the ideal cooking temperature has been reached. Evenly
spread the embers.
•
Position the pre-greased grill and start cooking the food.
•
If the coal is burning too quickly or the cooking heat is too intense, partially or fully close
the air vents.
Note:
•
Never place glass plates or dishes on the barbecue grill as these could crack.
•
Always use barbecue utensils with long, heat-resistant handles. Do not leave
utensils on the grill for long periods of time.
•
Always make sure that the food is thoroughly cooked before eating it.
•
Take special care when cooking food. Oil or grease may splatter when cooking
on the barbecue. Stand a safe distance away from it.
TIPS:
•
Occasionally turn the food to ensure that it cooks evenly.
•
Brush meat, seafood, fish and vegetables with oil, grease or a marinade to prevent them
from drying out during the cooking process and sticking to the grill.
•
Cooking times may vary, depending on the thickness of the food and temperature of the
barbecue.
•
When using wooden skewers, always soak them in water for 10 minutes beforehand. This
will prevent the skewers from burning during the cooking process.
•
A marinade helps add flavour and can also make the meat more tender.
