We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the
one easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight
coat hanger works
well) into a small hook. Run the hook through
each burner
tube several times.
(B) Use a narrow
bottle
brush with a flexible
handle
(do
not use a brass wire brush), run the brush through
each
burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air
into the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out each hole.
7. Wire
brush entire outer surface
of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
8. Clean any blocked
ports with a stiff wire such as an open
paper
clip.

corrosion

Food Safety
Food safety is a very important
part of enjoying
the
outdoor
cooking
experience.
To keep food safe from
harmful
bacteria,
follow
these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy
water before and after handling
raw meat and poultry.
Separate:
Separate
raw meats and poultry
from ready-to-
eat foods to avoid cross contamination.
Use a clean
platter
and utensils when removing
cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry
thoroughly
to kill bacteria.
Use a thermometer
to ensure proper internal
food
temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate
prepared
foods and leftovers
promptly.

How To Tell if Meat
is Grilled
Thoroughly
" Meat and poultry
cooked
on a grill often browns very fast
on the outside.
Use a meat thermometer
to be sure food
has reached
a safe internal
temperature,
and cut into
food to check for visual signs of doneness.
" Whole
poultry
should reach 165 ° F. Juices should run clear
and flesh should not be pink.
" Hamburgers
made of any ground meat or poultry
should
reach 160 ° F, and be brown in the middle
with no pink
juices. Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can
be cooked
to 145 ° F. All cuts of pork should reach 160 ° F.
" NEVER partially
grill meat or poultry
and finish cooking
later. Cook food completely
to destroy
harmful
bacteria.
" When
reheating
takeout
foods or fully cooked meats like
hot dogs, grill to 165 ° F, or until steaming
hot.
