Helpful Hints - Louisiana Grills LG800 Elite Instructions And User Manual

When new, wash thoroughly with warm soapy water, place back in the smoker and PREHEAT the grill for 20 to 30 minutes.
After the completion of grilling, open the lid and with a long handle grill cleaning brush give the grids a thorough cleaning. If
you do not have a cleaning brush use long handle tongs and a balled up piece of aluminum foil wrap. Next turn the grill to
"High" or "Preheat" Temperature until only an occasional wisp of smoke is seen (about 5 minutes) . This will remove most
of the material that builds up on the cooking grids.
The next time you grill allow the smoker to PREHEAT for 10 to 15 minutes to complete the cleaning cycle. Give the grids a
quick wipe down with your cleaning brush. Applying a thin coating of cooking oil on the grids before placing your meat on
them will also decrease your cleaning time, as well as allowing to move your food easily without sticking and tearing.

Your finish will help in protecting your grill from the detrimental effects of weather and outside pollutants. As with any
outdoor product, however, a cover is only as good as the maintenance given to the grill. Following the recommended
maintenance included in this manual will add greatly to the life of your grill.

DO's

Keep your LG Grill cover clean. This is your best
protection against mildew which will form on any dirt or
foreign material allowed to accumulate on tops or bottoms
of fabric. Use a cleaner or product that will not only clean
but will also protect.

Have any small tears or punctures repaired promptly.

Keep away from pets.

Keep all shrubs and vines away from your grill cover as
many plants contain acids, which harm fabrics.


Cover your grill while the grill is still hot

Store anything on the top of your grill cover.

Permit leaves, twigs or other organic debris to remain on
the cover for long periods of time.

This requires very little work, because of its construction and type of material
used. From time to time you may need to brush off any burnt leftover, such as
melted cheese or that extra thick bbq sauce. The best time to clean and in-
spect is when you perform the initial set-up procedures after every 1 to 3 uses.
The grease channels do need to be cleaned from time to time to eliminate build
-up, allow the grease to flow freely to the grease catch area and to allow for
easy movement of the Flame Broiler Slide Top.
The main flame broiler, does come with notches on either end. These notches
are used to hook the flame broiler to the mounting bracket. This does allow you to place the flame broiler in backwards, so
that you can do a burn off of any build up, making clean up easier.

To start the season fresh, then maybe 2 to 3 times during the grilling season, it is recommended to remove the Arched
Flame Broiler and Burn Grate. Then give the entire interior a good cleaning, de-greasing and vacuum, to remove
everything that may have accumulated.

Ensure that the grill is COMPLETELY COLD before using your shop vacuum or before scooping out and
disposing of the ashes.

You may want to use soapy hot water, a kitchen de-greaser, etc. to clean the entire inside of the barrel. This does
reduce grease build-up and the possibilities of flare-ups.

Check and clean any debris build up within the grease spout.
