CLEANING YOUR GRILL
Remove grease with hot, soapy water or grill cleaner. Keep
liquids away from the auger tube and the pellets. Liquids will
drain through bottom hole. Alternatively, just turn the grill on at
550 for an hour or more to bake off most internal residues. Clean
the ash from the firebox regularly. If ash covers the igniter, the
grill may not light.

Be sure to keep pellets in the hopper! Check this occasionally so
that your grill does not go out in the middle of cooking your meal.
Wait until the grill heats up before cooking! Aside from the soot
contained in the early smoke, the grill will not cook evenly until it
gets hot, just as with a charcoal or gas grill. A slowly blinking light
indicates that the grill has achieved the target temperature, while
no light means the grill is still heating or cooling. This will allow
you to check to see if the grill is ready from inside the house or
some other distance away. It is much easier to see a flashing
light (thus the grill is ready to cook on) from a distance than a
steady one.
Marinade in sugar or salt or both anything you plan to smoke for
several hours beforehand in the refrigerator. This will normally
cure it and should make it safe. We do not recommend smoking
poultry below 185° for health reasons. Cooking it at or above that
temperature will still impart a rich, smoky flavor.
Clean the grate and grease pan regularly. Flavors from
previous cookouts will not usually improve the food you are
cooking now. Use a spatula or grill brush to clean the grease tray,
and use a wad of aluminum foil or a grill brush to gently wipe off
the grate. Also, grease may accumulate and cause a fire. Should
this highly unlikely event occur, unplug the grill and keep the lid
closed until the fire recedes. Line the tray with aluminum foil, but
do not block holes.
Spritz! Buy a plastic spray bottle for about a buck and fill it with
apple juice plus 2-3 tablespoons of Worcestershire.
