PREPARING TO USE YOUR GRILL  
Before cooking with your Grill, the following steps should be closely followed to both cure the finish  
and season the interior steel. Failure to properly follow these steps may damage the finish and/or impart  
metallic flavors to your first foods.  
1. Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.  
2. Build a small fire on thefire grate, being sure not to lay coals against the walls. With the lid open allow  
the coals to become fully lit (12-15 minutes)  
3. Close lid. Position vents at approximately one quarter open. This burn should be sustained for at least  
Two hours. Begin increasing temperature by opening the vents halfway and adding more charcoal. Your  
grill is now ready for use.  
Rust can appear on the inside of your grill. Maintaining a light coat of vegetable oil on interior surfaces will aid  
In the protection of your grill. Exterior surfaces of the grill may need occasional touch up. We recommend the  
Use of commercially available black high temperature spray paint. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE  
UNIT!  
GRILLING  
Charcoal is recommended, however wood or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for grilling,  
With the fuel source placed and ignited on the ash pan. Do not build too large of a fire. We recommend starting  
a fire with no more than 4 pounds of charcoal (approximately 60 briquets) and adding more as needed during  
cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, place the cooking grill in the unit. Failure to read and follow  
instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and or property damage.  
GRILL MAINTENANCE  
Frequency of clean up is determined by how often the grill is used. Make sure coals are completely  
extinguished before cleaning inside of unit. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before using again.  
Wipe out the interior of unit with cloth or paper towel.  
When finished cooking, and the unit has adequately cooled, clean out all remaining ashes. Ashes collect moisture, which can lead to  
premature rusting and decay. Periodically coating the interior surfaces with vegetable oil will aid in the protection of your unit. Also,  
occasional touch up of the exterior paint will be required. Black, high-temperature spray paint is recommended. Never paint the interior  
of the unit.  
Cooking Surface: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking  
surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.  
WARNING  
Always open lid BEFORE opening the ash door to  
check fire or fuel.  
WARNING  
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65  
1. Combustible by-products produced when using  
this product contains chemicals known to the State  
of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or  
other reproductive harm.  
Always open the ash door slowly. Never attempt to  
look inside the grill while opening the ash door when  
the grill is in use.  
2. This product contains chemicals, including lead  
and lead compounds, known to the State of

COOKING TIPS  
Building Your Fire  
1.)  
2.)  
3.)  
Stack charcoal briquettes or wood into a pyramid-shaped pile on top of the charcoal grate  
or ash pan. We recommend using 4 pounds (approximately 50 - 60 briquettes) to start your  
fire, adding more as needed.  
If using lighter fluid, saturate the charcoal briquettes with lighter fluid and let it soak in for  
approximately 5 minutes. If using a chimney starter, electric starter, or other type of fire  
starter, light your fire according to the manufacturer's instructions.  
After allowing the lighter fluid to properly soak in, light the pile of briquettes in several  
locations to ensure an even burn. Always light the fire with the grill lid open.  
Leave lid open until briquettes are fully lit. Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal  
lighter fluid in grill and may result in a flash fire when lid is opened.  
Never add charcoal lighter fluid to hot or warm coals as flashbacks may occur causing  
injury.  
You are ready to begin cooking when the pile of briquettes ashes over and produces a red  
glow (approximately 12 – 15 minutes).  
Depending on your cooking method, either leave the briquettes in a pile or spread evenly  
across the charcoal grate using a long-handled poker.  
4.)  
5.)  
6.)  
*Always use caution when handling hot coals to prevent injury.  
Know When Your Fire is Ready  
Successful charcoal grilling depends on a good fire. The general rule for knowing when your coals  
are ready for grilling is to make sure that 80 percent or more of the coals are ashy gray. If you  
have less than that, the coals are not ready, and if all of them are glowing red hot, the fire is  
probably too hot. Here are a few steps you can take to adjust the temperature of your fire:  
-
-
-
-
If it is too hot, spread the coals out a bit more, which makes the fire less intense.  
Raise or lower the adjustable charcoal grate.  
Partially close the vents in the grill, which reduces the amount of oxygen that feeds the fire.  
Use the indirect grilling method, with coals to either side of a drip pan and the food over the  
pan rather than directly over the coals.  
-
-
In the event of a severe flare-up, spray the flames with water from a squirt bottle. Be  
careful, spraying with water tends to blow ashes around and make a mess.  
Add briquettes 2 or 3 at a time to increase the burn time. Allow 10 minutes for coals to ash  
over before adding more.

Direct and Indirect Grilling  
Direct Grilling - For most grilling, the ignited coals are spread in a single layer under the food. This  
is called direct grilling and is appropriate for relatively quick-cooking items such as hamburgers,  
steaks and most seafood. The single layer of coals emits even, steady heat, whether the grill lid is  
open or closed, and represents the way most people grill. For more control, pile some of the coals  
on one side of the grill where they will emit intense heat. You can move the food around on the grill,  
setting it over the very hot coals when you want to sear it or when a thick piece needs to cook a  
little more quickly. You can also use the adjustable charcoal grate and dampers to control the  
temperature in your grill.  
Indirect Grilling - For items that take longer to cook, you will want to use indirect grilling. This  
method is for long, slow cooking in a covered grill. For indirect cooking, the coals are piled two or  
three coals deep on one side of the grill, or divided and piled on two sides. This leaves an empty  
space next to the coals or between them. Food cooked over indirect heat is often started over  
direct heat and then moved to the cooler (empty) part of the grill for even, slow cooking. To make  
the heat as even as possible, construct two piles of coals. It is common to place a metal drip pan in  
the empty space beside or between the coals, which is filled with water, wine, beer, broth, or a  
combination. Place the food directly over the drip pan. This injects a little extra moisture into the  
cooking environment and also catches dripping juices, which makes clean-up a little easier and  
reduces the possibility of flare-ups. (Remember to keep a spray bottle filled with water on hand to  
extinguish any flare-ups.) Once you get used to the indirect method, you may prefer to use it for  
more grilling tasks. Although it may take a little longer, it is an excellent cooking method and a sure  
way to prevent the food from burning and to promote even cooking.  
Grilling with Wood Chips/Wood Chunks  
For a more robust smoke flavor while using charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal, try adding wood  
chips or several wood chunks to the fire. Wood chunks are available in a variety of natural flavors,  
and can be used alone or in addition to charcoal. As a general rule, any hardwood that bears a fruit  
or nut is suitable for cooking. However, different woods have very different tastes. Experiment with  
different woods to determine your personal favorite, and always use well-seasoned wood. Green or  
fresh-cut wood can turn food black, and tastes bitter.
