LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
• Stack charcoal briquees or wood into a pyramid-shaped pile on top of the charcoal grate.
We recommend using 2 lb (1 kg) (approximately 30 briquees) to start your re, adding
more as needed.
• If using starter uid, saturate the charcoal briquees with starter uid and let it soak in for
approximately 5 minutes. If using a chimney starter, electric starter, or other type of re
starter, light your re according to the manufacturer’s instrucons.
• Aer allowing the starter uid to properly soak in, light the pile of briquees in several
locaons to ensure an even burn. ALWAYS light the re with the grill lid open. Leave lid open
unl briquees are fully lit. Failure to do so could trap fumes from charcoal starter uid in
grill and may result in a ash re when lid is opened.
• Never add charcoal starter uid to hot or warm coals as ashbacks may occur causing injury.
• You are ready to begin cooking when the pile of briquees ashes over and produces a red
glow (approximately 12 to 15 minutes).
• Depending on your cooking method, either leave the briquees in a pile or spread evenly
across the charcoal grate using a long handle tool. ALWAYS use cauon when handling hot
coals.
DIRECT GRILLING
Grilling directly over hot coals is ideal for searing in juices and grilling food requiring less than
25 minutes of grilling me, such as steaks, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken parts, vegetables
and fruit.
• Open lid and remove cooking grid.
• Load and light charcoal per “Lighng Instrucons” secon. Leave lid open.
• While wearing hand protecon, carefully spread hot coals evenly across charcoal grid with a
long handle tool.
• While wearing hand protecon, replace the cooking grid, close the lid and allow the char-
coal grill to preheat.
• While wearing hand protecon, open the lid and place food onto cooking grids above the hot
coals with a long handle tool.
• With lid open or closed, cook unl desired internal food temperatures are achieved.
• NOTE: If addional briquees are needed, remove food from cooking grid and while wearing
hand protecon remove the cooking grid and place addional briquees without disturbing
the hot coals. Carefully replace the cooking grid and food.
• Allow charcoal to burn out by closing lid and all vents.
