WARNING  
Do not exceed a temperature of 400°F. Do not allow charcoal and/or wood to rest on the walls of grill. Doing so will greatly  
reduce the life of the metal and finish of your grill.  
Do not wear loose clothing or allow hair to hang freely while using grill.  
Use caution when reaching into or under grill. Always wear oven mitts or gloves to protect your hands from burns. Avoid  
touching hot surfaces.  
When opening lid, make sure it is pushed all the way back so it rests against the lid support brackets. If lid is not resting against  
support brackets, it could fall back to a closed position and cause bodily injury.  
In windy weather, place grill in an outdoor area that is protected from the wind.  
Close lid and all air vents to suffocate flame.  
Never leave coals and ashes in grill unattended. Before grill can be left unattended, remaining coals and ashes must be removed  
from grill. Use caution to protect yourself and property. Carefully place remaining coals and ashes in a non-combustible metal  
container and saturate completely with water. Allow coals and water to remain in metal container 24 hours prior to disposing.  
Extinguished coals and ashes should be placed a safe distance from all structures and combustible materials.  
With a garden hose, completely wet the surface beneath and around grill to extinguish any ashes, coals or embers which may  
have fallen during the cooking or cleaning process.  
After each use, clean the grill thoroughly and reapply a light coat of oil to interior to prevent rusting. Cover the grill to protect it  
from excessive rusting.  
Use caution when lifting or moving grill to prevent strains and back injuries.

PREPARATION FOR USE  
& LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS  
PLACE THE GRILL OUTDOORS ON A HARD, LEVEL, NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE  
AWAY FROM ROOF OVERHANG OR ANY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. NEVER USE ON WOODEN OR OTHER SURFACES THAT  
COULD BURN. PLACE THE GRILL AWAY FROM OPEN WINDOWS OR DOORS TO PREVENT SMOKE FROM ENTERING YOUR  
HOUSE. IN WINDY WEATHER, PLACE THE GRILL IN AN OUTDOOR AREA THAT IS PROTECTED FROM THE WIND.  
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY  
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR GRILL.  
Prior to your first use of the Brinkmann Grill King, follow the instructions  
Curing Your Grill  
below carefully to cure your grill. Curing your grill will minimize damage to  
the exterior finish as well as rid the grill of paint odor that can impart  
unnatural flavors to the first meal prepared on your Brinkmann Grill King.  
IMPORTANT: To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be  
properly cured and covered at all times when not in use. A  
cover for your Grill King may be ordered directly from  
Brinkmann by calling 1-800-468-5252.  
Step 1  
Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the Grill King including cooking grill  
with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray. Do not coat charcoal grate or  
charcoal tray.  
Step 2  
Follow the instructions below carefully to build a fire. You may use  
charcoal and/or wood as fuel in the Grill King (see Adding  
Charcoal/Wood During Cookingsection of this manual).  
WARNING: Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter  
fluid. Use only a high grade plain charcoal or charcoal/wood  
mixture.  
If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturers warnings  
and instructions regarding the use of their product. Start with 8 to 10  
pounds of charcoal for Grill King Deluxe (3 to 4 pounds for Grill King).  
This should be enough charcoal to cook with, once the curing process  
has been completed. Open the side air vents halfway. When charcoal is  
burning strong, carefully place hot coals in center of charcoal grate.  
WARNING: Keep hot coals away from side air vent to prevent coals from  
falling out.  
NOTE: To extend the life of your grill, make sure that hot coals and  
wood do not touch the walls of grill or lay inside of cooking  
chamber under charcoal tray.  
IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 5  
If you choose to use charcoal lighting fluid, ONLY use charcoal lighting  
fluid approved for lighting charcoal. Do not use gasoline, kerosene,  
alcohol or other flammable material for lighting charcoal. Follow all  
manufacturers warnings and instructions regarding the use of their  
product. Start with 8 to 10 pounds of charcoal for Grill King Deluxe  
(3 to 4 pounds for Grill King). This should be enough charcoal to cook  
with, once the curing process has been completed. Place the charcoal  
in center of charcoal grate.

Step 3  
Saturate charcoal with lighting fluid. With lid open wait 2 to 3 minutes  
to allow lighting fluid to soak into charcoal. Store charcoal lighting  
fluid safely away from the grill.  
Step 4  
Open the side air vents approximately half way. With grill lid open,  
stand back and carefully light charcoal and allow to burn until covered  
with a light ash (approximately 20 minutes).  
WARNING: Charcoal lighting fluid must be allowed to completely burn off  
prior to closing grill lid (approximately 20 minutes). Failure to  
do this could trap fumes from charcoal lighting fluid in grill  
and may result in a  
BRINKMANN

flash-fire or explosion when lid is opened.  
Step 5  
With coals burning strong, close the lid. Allow the temperature to  
reach the IDEALrange on the heat indicator. Maintain this  
temperature for 2 hours.  
Step 6  
Increase the temperature to the lower portion of the HOTrange on  
the heat indicator . This can be achieved by opening the side air vents  
and adding more charcoal and/or wood (see Adding Charcoal/Wood  
During Cookingsection of this manual). Maintain this temperature for  
1 hour then allow unit to cool completely.  
NOTE: It is important that the exterior of the grill is not scraped or  
rubbed during the curing process.  
IMPORTANT: To protect your smoker from excessive rust, the unit must  
be cured periodically and covered at all times when not in  
use. A smoker cover can be ordered directly from

If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturers warnings  
and instructions regarding the use of their product. Open the side air  
vents approximately halfway. Carefully place 5 to 6 pounds of hot coals  
for Grill King Deluxe (2 to 3 pounds for Grill King) on left side of  
charcoal grate.  
WARNING: Keep hot coals away from the side air vent to prevent coals  
from falling out.  
NOTE: To extend the life of your grill, make sure that hot coals and  
wood do not touch the walls of grill or lay inside of cooking  
chamber under charcoal tray.  
IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 5

Step 5  
With coals burning well, carefully add wood chunks using long cook-  
ing tongs (see Flavoring Woodand Adding Charcoal/Wood During  
Cookingsections of this manual.)  
Step 6  
Place cooking grill on grill support lips. Use charcoal tray adjusters to  
position charcoal tray to lowest level.  
WARNING: Always wear oven mitts/gloves when adjusting cooking levels  
to protect your hands from burns.  
Step 7  
Place food on right side of cooking grill and close lid. Adjust the side  
air vents to regulate cooking temperature.  
Lower Charcoal Tray Level  
(Smoking)  
NOTE: Do not fully close side air vents and lid unless trying to cool the  
grill down or suffocate a flame.  
Step 8  
By closing the side air vents more, the burning intensity is slowed and  
smoke is contained within the grill, imparting more smoke flavor to  
food. The ideal smoking temperature is between 175°F and 250°F or  
IDEALreading on the heat gauge.  
Step 9  
For large cuts of meat, allow approximately one hour of cooking time  
per pound of meat. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure food  
is fully cooked before removing from grill.  
Step 10  
Allow grill to cool completely, then follow instructions in the  
After-Use Safetyand Proper Care & Maintenancesections of this  
manual.  
During the smoking process, avoid the temptation to open lid to check  
food. Opening the lid allows heat and smoke to escape, making addi-  
tional cooking time necessary.  
Smoke Cooking Tips  
Food closest to the charcoal will cook and brown faster. Rotate food  
midway through the cooking cycle. If food is excessively browned or  
flavored with smoke, wrap food in aluminum foil after the first few  
hours of smoking. This will allow food to continue cooking without  
further browning or smoke flavoring.  
When cooking fish or extra lean cuts of meat, you may want to try  
water smoking to keep the food moist. Before starting a fire, place  
charcoal tray to lowest level. Use a flat bottom metal pan shallow  
enough to fit between charcoal grate and cooking grill as a water pan.  
Set the metal pan on charcoal grate under food and cooking grill. Fill  
with water or marinade until q full. Build your fire on the opposite  
side of water pan.  
CAUTION: Always use oven mitts/gloves to protect your hands. Liquid  
in water pan will be extremely hot and can scald or burn.  
Always allow liquid to cool completely before handling. Do  
not allow liquid to completely evaporate from water pan.

pounds of charcoal for Grill King Deluxe (3 to 4 pounds for Grill King).  
This should be enough charcoal to cook with, once the curing process  
has been completed. Open the side air vents halfway. When charcoal is  
burning strong, carefully place hot coals in center of charcoal grate.

Step 5  
Place cooking grill on grill support lips. Use charcoal tray adjusters to  
position charcoal grate to desired cooking level.  
WARNING: Always wear oven mitts/gloves when adjusting cooking  
levels to protect your hands from burns.  
NOTE: Do not fully close side air vents and lid unless trying to cool the  
grill down or suffocate a flame.  
Step 6  
Place food on cooking grill and close grill lid. Adjust the side air vents  
to regulate cooking temperature.  
Step 7  
By closing the side air vents more, the burning intensity is slowed.  
Always use a meat thermometer to ensure food is fully cooked  
before removing from grill.  
Step 8  
Allow grill to cool completely, then follow instructions in the After-  
Use Safetyand Proper Care & Maintenancesections of this  
manual.  
To obtain your favorite smoke flavor, experiment by using chunks,  
sticks or chips of flavor producing wood such as hickory, pecan, apple,  
cherry, or mesquite. Most fruit or nut tree wood may be used for  
smoke flavoring. Do not use resinous wood such as pine as it will  
produce an unpleasant taste.  
Flavoring Wood  
Wood chunks or sticks 3" to 4" long and 1" to 2" thick work best.  
Unless the wood is still green, soak the wood in water for 30 minutes  
or wrap each piece in foil and tear several small holes in the foil to pro-  
duce more smoke and prevent the wood from burning too quickly. A  
lot of wood is not required to obtain a good smoke flavor. A  
recommended amount for the Grill King is 5 to 6 wood chunks or  
sticks. Experiment by using more wood for stronger smoke flavor or  
less wood for milder smoke flavor.  
Additional flavoring wood should not have to be added during the  
cooking process. However, it may be necessary when cooking very  
large pieces of food. Follow instructions and cautions in the Adding  
Charcoal/Wood During Cookingsection of this manual to avoid injury  
while adding wood.

To increase heat and air circulation, fully open side air vents. If  
increased air circulation does not raise temperature sufficiently,  
more wood and/or charcoal may be needed. Follow instructions in  
Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cookingsection of this manual.  
Regulating Heat  
To maintain the temperature, more wood and/or charcoal may need  
to be added during the cooking cycle.  
NOTE: Dry wood burns hotter than charcoal, so you may want to  
increase the ratio of wood to charcoal to increase the cooking  
temperature. Hardwood such as oak, hickory, mesquite, fruit  
and nut wood are an excellent fuel because of their burning  
rate. When using wood as fuel, make sure the wood is  
seasoned and dry. DO NOT use resinous wood such as pine  
as it will produce an unpleasant taste.  
Additional charcoal and/or wood may be required to maintain or  
increase cooking temperature.  
Adding Charcoal/Wood  
During Cooking  
Step 1  
Stand back and carefully open grill lid. Use caution since flames  
can flare-up when fresh air suddenly comes in contact with fire.  
Step 2  
Fully close lower side air vents to prevent embers from falling  
through.  
Step 3  
Wearing oven mitts/gloves, remove food from cooking grill. Place  
charcoal tray on bottom of cooking chamber by removing charcoal  
tray adjusters from cooking grill. Remove cooking grill.  
Step 4  
Stand back a safe distance and use long cooking tongs to lightly  
brush aside ashes on hot coals. Use cooking tongs to add charcoal  
and/or wood to charcoal grate, being careful not to stir-up ashes  
and sparks. If necessary, use your Charcoal Chimney Starter to  
light additional charcoal and/or wood and add to existing fire.  
WARNING: Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm  
coals as flashback may occur causing severe burns.  
Step 5  
When charcoal is burning strong again, wear oven mitts/gloves and  
carefully place cooking grill on top of grill support brackets. Use  
charcoal tray adjusters to position cooking grill to desired cooking  
level and replace food.  
Step 6  
Close the grill lid, open the lower side air vents and allow food to  
continue cooking.

AFTER-USE SAFETY  
WARNING  
Close lid and all dampers to extinguish fire.  
Always allow grill and all components to cool completely before handling.  
Never leave coals and ashes in grill unattended. Make sure coals and ashes are completely extinguished before removing.  
Before grill can be left unattended, remaining coals and ashes must be removed from grill. Use caution to protect yourself  
and property. Place remaining coals and ashes in a non-combustible metal container and completely saturate with water.  
Allow coals and water to remain in metal container 24 hours prior to disposing.  
Extinguished coals and ashes should be placed a safe distance from all structures and combustible materials.  
With a garden hose, completely wet surface beneath and around the grill to extinguish any ashes, coals or embers which  
may have fallen during the cooking or cleaning process.  
Cover and store grill in a protected area away from children and pets.  
Cure your grill periodically throughout the year to protect  
against excessive rust.  
Proper Care  
& Maintenance  
To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be properly  
cured and covered at all times when not in use. A smoker cover may  
be ordered directly from Brinkmann by calling 1-800-468-5252.  
Wash cooking grill and charcoal grate with hot, soapy water, rinse  
well and dry. Lightly coat grill with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray.  
Clean inside and outside of grill by wiping off with a damp cloth. Apply  
a light coat of vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray to the interior surface  
to prevent rusting. Do not coat charcoal grate or charcoal tray.  
If rust appears on the exterior surface of your grill, clean and buff the  
affected area with steel wool or fine grit emery cloth. Touch-up with a  
good quality high-temperature resistant paint.  
Never apply paint to the interior surface. Rust spots on the interior  
surface can be buffed, cleaned, then lightly coated with vegetable oil or  
vegetable oil spray to minimize rusting.
