HOW MUCH CHARCOAL IS REQUIRED?

• Approximately 50 briquettes (1.5 kg / 3.3 lb).
• Charcoal recommendations are approximate. Longer cooking times, cold or windy temperatures will require
that additional charcoal be added to reach and maintain ideal cooking temperatures.

ADDING CHARCOAL DURING COOKING

WARNING
Always wear protective gloves. Always use long handled heat resistant tongs for loading additional
charcoal.
1. Open the charcoal lid.
2. Move food to one side of the cooking grate.
3. To access the charcoal grate, lift the hinged portion of the cooking grate.
4. Load approximately 12-20 additional briquettes (390 g - 520 g / 0.86 lb - 1.15 lb) for each additional hour
of cooking required.
ATTENTION
Never leave your barbecue unattended while in use.

PUTTING OUT THE FIRE

Once cooking is complete, follow these steps to extinguish the fire:
1. Using protective gloves, close the kettle lid.
2. Close all vents.
NOTE:
Assume that it will take at least 1 hour for your charcoal to extinguish and your barbecue to cool down.
There is not an ON or OFF switch for a charcoal fire. Always be cautious about making any assumptions
about when the fire is completely out and completely cool.
