Charcoal Grill Cooking Direct Method - Weber CHARCOAL GRILL Owner's Manual

CHARCOAL GRILL COOKING
DIRECT METHOD
The direct method means that the food is
cooked directly over prepared coals. For
even cooking, food should be turned once,
halfway through the grilling time. Use the
direct method for foods that take less than
25 minutes to cook: steaks, chops, kabobs,
vegetables, and the like.
