Preventing Flare-Ups
Your new RED
®
cooking system is inherently designed to avoid flare-ups;
however, you can greatly reduce the chance of getting a flare up. Here are some
suggestions:
• Wind forces oxygen between the grates which can result in are-ups –
try to keep your grill away from windy areas.
• When cooking fatty food on the searing or grilling settings 1) leave the
lid cover in the open position and 2) use a lower temperature grill setting
(as needed).
• If are-ups do occur 1) move food from directly over the are-up, 2)
spray a steam of water from a hand spray bottle or pour a small amount
of water into the “U”. Target the water away from the center of the “U”
to create more steam to help extinguish a are up, 3) cook with the
lid open and 4) adjust the heat setting as appropriate according to the
recipe.
• During cooking, if grease pools in bottom of “U” infrared emitter,
remove food (if possible) and turn burners on with the grill lid
open until grease has burned off.
• Do not place food directly over the gaps between the main “U” emit-
ters. (Available only on certain models)
Direct Cooking
Infrared energy is perfect for direct cooking of steaks, chops and other
meats as it can achieve very high searing temperatures. The infrared
energy affects meat by rst searing the outside and penetrating inside so
the meat is cooked to juicy perfection.
Indirect Cooking
When indirect cooking with a conventional gas grill, food is generally
placed away from the burner. With RED
®
, indirect cooking results are
achieved by cooking on
BBQ, and placing the food directly over the
“U”. For a “U” with 2 burners underneath you can turn on only one
burner to help control the temperature. Place wood chips or chunks in
the “U” to add smoke avors.
Rotisserie Cooking
Rotisserie burners are not needed with this grill. Simply use a Char-Broil
®
ro-
tisserie over your Char-Broil
®
RED
®
Infrared cooking system with the grates
removed. Always rotisserie on the
Rotisserie setting as indicated on the
burner control knob. Check frequently to ensure proper cooking.
