Before Grilling

  • Prior to first use, wash the cooking grates and the warming rack with warm soapy water.
  • Pre-firing
    Before you use the grill for the first time, it needs to be conditioned (pre-fired) for at least 1-2 hours at a temperature of 212ºF—392ºF.
    This is necessary to make the inside ready for barbecuing and to burn-in the heat-resistant paint on the outside. During pre-firing, do not close the cover completely. Only close the cover completely for a few minutes at the end.


The temperature must never exceed 400ºF.

warning Grill will drip oil during this process and for AL several uses afterwards. This is normal.
NEVER EXCEED 400ºF AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE FINISH AND CONTRIBUTE TO RUST. PAINT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND WILL REQUIRE TOUCH-UP. THE PRODUCT IS NOT WARRANTED AGAINST RUST.

Types of Charcoal

You can burn either charcoal briquettes or natural lump charcoal, which have different attributes. Charcoal briquettes typically provide longer cooking time and are usually less expensive while lump charcoal burns hotter and produces less ash.

Smoking Wood Chips

Tips for Using Wood Chips

A lot of smoke is produced when using wood chips. Smoke can escape through seams and turn the inside of the smoker black. This is normal. Wood chips must be used to produce smoke and create the smoke flavor. Never use more than I box of wood chips at a time. Never use wood chunks.

You can use dry or pre-soaked wood chips in your smoker. Dry chips burn faster and produce more intense smoke. Chips pre-soaked in water (for approximately 30 minutes) burn slower and produce a less intense smoke. Check wood chip box periodically to see if wood has burned down. Add more chips as required.

Smoking with wood chips/wood chunks

For a more robust smoke flavor while using charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal, try adding wood chips or several wood chunks to the fire. Wood chunks are available in a variety of natural flavors and can be used alone or in addition to charcoal. As a rule, any hardwood that bears a fruit or nut is suitable for cooking. However, different woods have different tastes. Experiment with different woods to determine your personal favorite, and always use well-seasoned wood. Green or fresh-cut wood can turn food black and taste bitter.

How to Use


Risk of burning!
A The grill, the charcoal, and the BBQ meat can become extremely hot during use. Any direct contact can result in serious burns.

  • Keep sufficient distance from hot parts, as any direct contact can lead to severe burns.
  • Always wear oven or BBQ gloves when grilling.
  • Use only long-handled utensils with heat-resistant grips.
  • Do not wear any clothing with wide sleeves.
  • Use only dry lighters or special fluid lighters.

warning Lighting Your Grill:

  1. Open the lid and remove the cooking grates.
  2. To start a charcoal fire, stack 4.5 lb. charcoal briquettes in a pyramid and saturate with lighter fluid. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Use of any of these or similar products can cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily injury.
  3. Light the coals in several places.
  4. After the briquettes ash over or turn gray, spread them out. Please use a suitable fireproof tool with a long, fireproof handle when you do this.
  5. Put the cooking grates in place and adjust the charcoal pan to the desired height using the lifting handle/lever and start cooking
  6. If the charcoal is not burning evenly, please use long-handled tongs to move coals for even heat.
  7. Leave the lid open or closed based on the type of BBQ meat. Please close the lid when longer cooking time is needed. The thermometer located on the lid shows the temperature to ensure it is not too high for a particular BBQ meat.

warning Chimney starters, electric starters, or other types of fire. A starters may be used instead of lighter fluid to light fire but use only according to manufacturer's instructions.

Never use instant light charcoal or charcoal lighter fluid with any other starting methods.

warning Allow enough time for grill to heat up before cooking.
You can't cook properly when the grill is cold, and you can't build a fire properly when you are busy preparing food.
Once the fire is burning well, it is easy to keep it going with a little attention.

warning Rising heat will move up and out of the grill, pulling in Ld cooler air behind it, which provides oxygen for the fire Use the air vent and stack dampers to control the airflow and the cooking temperature, After the fire is established and the grill reaches the desired cooking temperature, the dampers can be left completely open for maximum airflow and a higher cooking temperature-or closed as needed to decrease airflow for a lower cooking temperature. Use the heat indicator to monitor grill temperature.

warning The adjustable charcoal pan can also be used to control the temperature.

Use the lifting handles to raise the charcoal pan for quick searing and lower it for slow cooking.

Always use a flame-retardant insulated grill mitt when adjusting the air vent or the charcoal pan.

Adding Additional Charcoal

For extended cooking times, additional charcoal can be added through the charcoal pan access door.

warning Use extreme caution when opening charcoal pan access door or adding charcoal, to avoid injury.

  1. Use the lifting handles to lower the charcoal pan to its lowest setting.
  2. Open the charcoal pan access door using a flame-retardant insulated grill mitt. (Handle will be extremely hot.) Please take out all the food and put on BBQ gloves, move the cooking grate to add charcoal if the grill doesn't have a device for adding charcoal. Make sure to move the cooking grate back into position after the procedure.
  3. Use flame-retardant insulated grill mitts and long-handled tongs to stoke coals, to make the ash fall through the slots in the charcoal pan or the slide below.
  4. Use flame-retardant insulated grill mitts and long-handled tongs to add charcoal to the pan as needed.
  5. Raise the charcoal pan to the desired level

warning Do not use lighter fluid or instant light charcoal when adding additional charcoal to an existing fire.

warning This is dangerous and can cause injury. It will also leave a lighter fluid aftertaste on your food. Only add regular charcoal or wood chunks to an existing fire.

Smoke by Cooking Operation

warning Smoke by cooking uses indirect heat and smoke.
SMOKE BY COOKING SLOWLY.

To light the barbecue

  1. Open the lid and remove the cooking grates.
  2. To start a charcoal fire, stack 4 lbs. of charcoal in a pyramid and saturate with lighter fluid.
    warning Do not use gasoline, kerosene, or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Use of any of these or similar products could cause an explosion and possibly cause severe bodily injury.
  3. Light coals in several places.
  4. After the briquettes ash over or turn gray, place hot charcoals on the cooking grates in the offside smoker if you have one.
    Place hot charcoals on the middle of the cooking grates. To do this, use a suitable fireproof tool with a long, fireproof handle.
  5. Place water/drip pan on the right side of the cooking grates in the offside smoker if have one.
  6. Place the cooking grates in low position.
  7. Add water-soaked hardwood chips for a smoked flavor.
  8. Put the cooking grates in place.
  9. Close the lid and control heat with the dampers and adjustable grate.

Tips for Smoked BBQ

warning Pans are not included, and a disposable bread pan is recommended. Please purchase it separately.

  • If you want to sear certain foods before smoking, please place meat directly above charcoals with the lid open and cooking grates in high (hot) position for several minutes.
  • Add flavor-soaked wood chips to the fire and add 1-part marinade, beer, or wine to 3 parts water, to the drip pan.
  • Opening the smoking chamber will extend cooking time.
  • Insert the thermometer into thickest part not touching the bone and allow five minutes to register.
  • Internal temperature for fowl should be 170ºF to 180ºFor when the leg moves easily in the joint.
  • Meat should be cooked to internal temperature of 140ºF for rare, 160ºF for medium, and 170ºF for well-done.
  • Check the water level when cooking for more than 4 hours or when you can't hear the water simmering.
  • Add water by moving the meat over and pouring water through the grill into the water pan.
    IF THE SMOKE IS WHITE, THE FIRE IS PERFECT.
    IF THE SMOKE IS BLACK, YOU NEED TO ADD SOME AIR

Maintenance and Cleaning

Your grill is made of high-quality materials. To clean and maintain the surfaces, please follow the below instructions:


Risk of burning!
Let the grill cool down completely before cleaning

  • Only tip out the ash when the charcoal has completely burned out.


Health risk!
Do not use any decolorants or thinners to remove stains.
These are harmful to health and must not come into contact with food.


Risk of damage!
Do not use any strong or grinding solvents or abrasive pads, as they can damage surfaces and leave behind scratch marks.

When you have finished grilling you can shut down your grill by closing both dampers and allowing the fire to extinguish Be patient. This may take an hour or more

Empty the Ashes & Ash Pan

warning After the fireis completely extinguished you should wait several hours before emptying the ashes to ensure they are not hot, or else there is risk of burns.

  • Knock any ashes that did not fall into the ash pan from the fire grate. (If there are pieces of partially burned charcoal on the cooking grate you can save them for use the next time. They are still good).
  • Tap the sides of the fire bowl to loosen any ash that is on the sides.
  • Unclip the ash pan from the bottom of the grill and slide out towards the front.
  • Give the ash pan a few firm taps to loosen any ash that may be stuck.
  • Place the ashes in a metal container and fill with water to ensure there are no lit coals, then you can dispose of the ashes.
  • Let the charcoal burn out completely after grilling. This eases the cleaning effort by burning away excess fat and BBQ residue.
  • Lift out the charcoal pan and empty out the cold ash. It is particularly important that you remove the ash before moisture combines with the cold ash. Ash is saline and when moist, can cause rust to form on the inside of the ash collecting tray. Thus, over years the ash collecting tray can get rusted and damage.
  • Clean the grill regularly, optimally, after every use.
  • Remove the cooking grates and clean them thoroughly wit.h soapy water. Then dry them off thoroughly.
  • Use a wet sponge to remove loose residue from the grill
  • Use a soft, clean cloth for drying. Do not scratch the surfaces when wiping them dry.
  • Clean the internal and external surfaces with warm soapy water.
  • Tighten all screws before every use, to ensure your grill is stable at all times.
  • Protect your grill against weather. Since it is manufactured from steel it will eventually rust. Clean possible rust spots and repair them with fireproof paint. It is important that you remove the ash from the firebox before moisture combines with the cold ash, as this can lead to rust damage.

warning The grill should always be stored where it is protected from moisture.

warning Charcoal is porous and holds moisture. DO NOT AX leave charcoal in your grill when you are not using it. Charcoal and ashes left inside the ash pan may reduce the life of your grill.
