Grilling

Grilling
1. Place 1.4 kg of charcoal on the charcoal grate or in a
charcoal chimney starter.
2. Light the charcoal and wait until it is burning strong.
3. Spread the coals evenly on the charcoal grate and place
the cooking grates on the firebox.
4. With lid open, allow the charcoal to burn until it is covered
with ash (approx. 20 min.).
5. Place food on the cooking grate and close the lid if de-
sired.
6. Check food periodically. Use a meat thermometer to en-
sure food is fully cooked before removing it.
CAUTION
GREASE FIRES

fire can occur that may damage the product. Follow
instructions on general appliance cleaning to pre-
vent grease fires.
∙ The best way to prevent grease fires is to regularly
clean the appliance.

Adding charcoal

WARNING
Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm
coals as flashback may occur causing severe burns.
To increase heat, more charcoal and/or wood may be needed.
1. Carefully open the lid.
2. Wearing oven mitts, carefully remove the cooking grates.
Place them on a non-combustible surface close to the
appliance.
3. Stand back and use long cooking utensils to lightly brush
aside ashes on hot coals.
4. Use cooking tongs to add charcoal and/or wood to the
charcoal grate. Be careful not to stir up ashes and sparks.
5. Wearing oven mitts, carefully place the cooking grates on
the firebox.

Regulating heat

The heat inside the barbecue can be regulated by the amount
of charcoal and by the ventilation.
The temperature can be increased by adding charcoal
and/or more ventilation.
The temperature can be decreased by reducing ventila-
tion.
Open or close the firebox and lid ventilation for more or less
ventilation.
To maintain or increase the temperature over time, more
charcoal and/or wood may need to be added during the cook-
ing cycle. See section 'Adding charcoal'.
NOTE: Dry wood burns hotter than charcoal. Hardwood such
as oak, hickory, mesquite, fruit and nut wood are an excellent
fuel. Make sure the wood is seasoned, dry and free of chemi-
cal treatment.
