Preheating(
It is important to allow your grill to preheat and achieve your desired cooking temperature before
cooking. This allows the entire grill to heat up and quickly return to your desired temperature once
your food is introduced. If you do not allow the grill to preheat, you will find that it takes a longer
period of time to bring both the grill and the food to your desired cooking temperature.(
Pellet Information(
REC TEC GRILLS Ultimate Blend premium hardwood pellets contain approximately 8,200 BTU’s
of heat per pound and have less than 1% ash residue. Pellets should be stored in a dry area, as wet
pellets will swell and turn back into sawdust. For best results, always use premium hardwood
pellets in your grill. The use of grades other than premium hardwood pellets may result in tem-
perature variations, uneven cooking, and poor results. Remember pellets do not contain preserva-
tives and will deteriorate over time.
Caution: Some wood pellets produced for heating fuel have a high content of softwood
which can include pitch, and should not be used for cooking. Always check with the pellet
manufacturer to ensure that you are cooking with a premium 100% hardwood pellet.
Lid Position!
Always cook with the lid closed. An open lid allows heat to escape, sends false temperature informa-
tion to your Smart Grill Technology™ processor, hinders the REC TEC’s natural convection air
flow, and lengthens cooking time. Cooking with the lid closed keeps the temperature even and cooks
food faster. A closed lid also helps to enhance the flavor profile of your food by infusing smoke
from the pellet flavor you selected into your food.
