Operating Instructions
ASSEMBLY IS DONE. LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!
PRE-SEASONING
Pre-seasoning will rid your grill of chemicals and oils left over by the manufacturing process, allowing them to burn
off. PRE-SEASON GRILL PRIOR TO FIRST USE.
1. Fill the hopper with charcoal approximately 1/4–1/2 full.
2. Start grill following the START-UP instructions and set the temperature to 250°F (121°C)
for 60 minutes.
3. Set the temperature to 400°F (204°C) for 30 minutes.
4. Shut down the grill following the SHUTDOWN instructions.
5. Allow grill to cool COMPLETELY.
6. Using a napkin or cloth, rub a light coat of cooking oil on smoke + sear grates, warming/smoking racks, charcoal
grate and the inside of the grill lid and body.
7. Repeat steps 3–6 at 350°F
GRIDDLE-SEASONING
1. Wipe griddle top of all debris.
2. Ignite grill and set temperature to 250F. Run for approximately 10–15 minutes until your griddle top becomes hot.
3. Pour a light amount of cooking oil on griddle top.
4. Spread the cooking oil over surface of griddle top using paper towels. Use spatula or heat resistant gloves to hold
folded paper towels. Be sure to cover every part of griddle top.
5. Allow griddle to heat to 400°F (204°C). Smoking will occur as the oil begins to bond with the surface of griddle.
6. After smoke dissipates. Repeat steps 3–5 at 350°F
Frequent seasoning prevents rusting. If rusting occurs, clean with a steel brush, apply vegetable shortening and heat
as indicated above.
START-UP
1. REMOVE heat intake and air intake slides.
2. Open hopper lid and hopper ash door.
• There is a safety switch at each of these doors that will prevent the fan from running when these doors are opened.
• If charcoal remains from a previous cook, shake the charcoal grate to ensure all ash falls through to the ash tray.
• Discard any ash from the ash tray.
3. Fill hopper with charcoal.
• Approximately 16 lbs. of charcoal briquettes.
• Approximately 10 lbs. of lump charcoal.

• Use a food safe fire starter block or twisted paper towel/paper.
• Place in charcoal grate on the fire starter support bars.
• Use caution and wear protective gloves.
• Light with match stick or lighter.
5. Turn on controller and set to desired temperature.
• Wait 1–2 minutes after lighting fire starter to ensure fire starter is fully lit.
6. Close hopper lid and ash door.
• This will activate the fan.
7. Wait for grill to reach desired set temperature.
• Approximately 13 minutes to reach 700°F (370°C).
