Cleaning & care
• To reduce are-ups, keep the charcoal grill clean, use lean cuts of meat (or trim fat) and
avoid cooking at very high temperatures.
• Place delicate foods like sh and vegetables in aluminum foil pouches and indirect-grill or
place on upper cooking levels (warming rack), if available.
• To avoid losing natural juices, use long-handled tongs or spatulas instead of forks and turn
foods over just once during cooking.
• When indirect-grilling roasts and larger cuts of meat, place meat onto a roasng rack inside
a heavy gauge metal pan.
• Try water pans to reduce are-ups and cook juicier meats. Before starng coals remove cook-
ing grids and place a heavy duty shallow pan directly on charcoal grid. Fill half way with water,
fruit juices or other avored liquids. Place coals around grid per “Lighng Instrucons”, replace
cooking grids and posion food over the loaded pan.
• Enhance food avors by using wood chips in smoker boxes or aluminum foil pouches. Follow
the wood manufacturer’s instrucons.
• Rosseries, charcoal grill baskets, vercal poultry holders and other accessories can enhance
your experiences, reduce cooking mes and aid in clean-up.

grid material. Wear protecve hand gear and gently remove the build-up while grids are hot.
