Refer to this list every time you grill
☐
Read Owner's Manual
Be sure to have read the owner's manual and all the safety instructions.
☐
Clean ash pan
Always ensure you clean the ash pan prior to grilling to avoid fires and flare-ups.
☐
Lighting charcoal
Fully open the vent on the lid and base each time you light your grill. Use the
Charcoal Starter (not included), or place lighter cubes or lightly crumpled newspaper
on and around the air deflector. Do not lean over grill when lighting charcoal.
☐
Preheat and clean grids
Coat entire surface of grids with vegetable shortening NOT salted fats like butter or
margarine. Preheat your grill to burn off excess residue. Clean grids with a brass wire
brush. Refer to "Cleaning Instructions".
NOTE:
Stainless steel cooking grids are durable and corrosion resistant and require
less seasoning and maintenance than cast iron grids.
☐
Prep area
Make sure everything you need while grilling such as your utensils, seasonings,
sauces, and dishes are within your reach. Don't leave your food unattended, or it
could burn.
☐
Don't peek and flip once
Try not to open the lid and peek too much, or heat will escape and throw your
temperature and cooking times off. Flip your food only once, especially steak and
chicken.
☐
Leave space
Leave some space on the grill and between food, so you have room to move food
around if you need to.
☐
Use a thermometer
Use a thermometer to ensure food is cooked thoroughly. Follow the appropriate
temperatures guidelines for all types of meat, especially poultry.
