Preheating for barbecuing:
Whenever you use your Spirit for barbecuing, it
is important that you preheat the barbecue first,
with the lid closed. This ensures that the porcelain
enamel coated steel cooking grill or hotplate is
searing hot when you start cooking.
To preheat your Spirit for barbecuing:
1. Check that all burner control knobs are in the off
position and check that there is sufficient gas in
your bottle (for LP models).
2. Open the lid.
3. Turn the gas supply on at the source.
4. Light all three main burners according to the
instructions in the owner’s guide.
5. Close the lid and preheat the barbecue with the
three main burners on HIGH for 10 minutes.
Barbecuing:
1. After preheating for 10 minutes , your barbecue
is ready to cook. Turn the burners to the settings
suggested in the recipe.
2. Open the lid and place your food directly on the
grill (or hotplate, if you are using one).
3. Close the lid and cook for half the estimated
cooking time (refer to the relevant recipe for
timing).
4. Open the lid and turn the food over.
5. Close the lid and cook for the remaining cooking
time.
Note: Your Spirit will perform at its best when you
let natural convection do its work under the lid.
Try to resist the temptation to open the lid or turn
the food unnecessarily. Your food cooks faster,
more evenly and with more flavour if you leave
the lid closed as much as possible.

Barbecuing
Traditional barbecuing usually involves using the direct method to cook chops, sausages and steak on the
cooking grill or hotplate.
Lamb chops and sausages on your Spirit
®
are great, but you don’t need to be limited to cooking traditional
favourites like these. Barbecuing or grilling on your Spirit is a delicious way to add flavour to fish, pork,
chicken and vegetables.
