Important notes about using the Infrared Burner
Whether
you are a seasoned
chef or a newcomer
to gas
grilling,
infrared
cooking
is quite
different
than
grilling
over
a traditional
burner.
Although
the primary
grill burners
will
also sear
meat,
the Infrared
Burner
produces
a more
intense
and concentrated
heat
that sears
the meat
more
quickly.
This
quick
searing
produces
a crisp
and flavorful
outer
crust and locks in the meat's
natural
flavor
and
juices.
Follow
the cooking
guidelines
provided.
Then
take
some
time to experiment
with
your
Infrared
cooking
zone.
Also,
read the Cooking
instructions
on page
A-1 so you
understand
the importance
of pre-heating,
cooking
temperatures
and safety
warnings.
•
The
Lid must always
be open
when
the Infrared
Burner
is lit.
•
Infrared
cooking
times
will be much
shorter
than
traditional
grilling
so do not leave the grill unattended.
Once
lit, leave the infrared
Burner
on High and sear
both
sides
of meat
using
the guidelines
below.
Once
seared,
adjust
the Infrared
Burner
to Low and
continue
cooking
until desired
doneness.
You
can
also move
the seared
meat
to the primary
grilling
area
to finish
cooking.
This method
allows
you to sear
and
prepare
larger
amounts
of meat.
NEVER
attempt
to douse
a flare-up
with water
which
can damage
the Burner.
To control
flare-ups:
•
Trim excess
fat from
meats
and poultry.
•
Preheat
the Burner
properly.
•
Clean
the Burner
regularly
to remove
food
and
grease
build-up.
See
Burner
Tube
cleaning
instructions
in this manual.
•
Reposition
your food
often
and consider
moving
the
seared
meat
to the primary
grilling
area to finish
cooking.

Hamburgers
and sausages
are fatty so you should
expect
some
flare-ups
when
cooking
these
foods.
To minimize
flare-ups
follow
the instructions
on page
A-1.
You
may also consider
grilling
these
and other fatty foods
using the primary
grill area and the indirect
cooking
method.
