WARNING
Burn-off
Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you will
want to "burn off" the grill to eliminate any odor or foreign
matter. Just ignite the burners, lower the Lid, and operate
grill on the HIGH setting for 3 to 5 minutes.
Cooking Temperatures
High setting: Only use this setting for fast warm-up,
searing steaks or chops and for burning food residue off
the grill after cooking is complete. Never use the HIGH
setting for extended cooking.
Medium to Low Settings: Most recipes specify medium
to low settings, including all smoking, rotisserie cooking
and for cooking lean cuts such as fish.
NOTE: Temperature settings will vary with the
temperature and the amount of wind outside your home.
Direct Cooking
The direct cooking method can be used with the supplied
cooking grids and food placed directly over the lit grill
Burners. The method is ideal for searing and whenever
you want meat, poultry or fish to have and open-flame
barbecued taste. Deep frying and smoking are also best
cooked in this manner because they require direct heat.
!
WARNING
Do not line the bottom of the grill housing with aluminum
foil, sand or any substance that will restrict the flow of
grease into the grease tray.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a
fire or explosion which could cause serious bodily injury,
death, or property damage.
Indirect Cooking
To cook indirectly, the food should be placed on the
left or right side of your grill with the burner lit on the
opposite side.
Flare-ups
The fats and juices dripping from grilled food can cause
flare-ups. Since flare-ups impart a favorably, distinctive
taste and color to food cooked cover an open flame,
they should be accepted up to a point. Nevertheless,
uncontrolled flaring can result in a ruined meal.
