Poultry
skin is fatty so you should
expect
some
flare-ups
when
using
this direct
method.
To minimize
flare-ups,
try grilling
poultry
using
the indirect
method.
Place
the poultry
on one side of the grill with the
opposing
Burners
on MEDIUM
heat,
and lower the grill
Lid. Grilling
times will vary based
on the size of your
poultry.

Vegetables
and Fruit
Prepare
your fruit or vegetables
and brush
with butter
or
basting
sauce if desired.
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 and the grill lid down.
Or center
your food on the Secondary
Cooking
Rack and
light the outer grill Burners.
Either way,
indirect
cooking
must be done with
the Lid down.
In some
instances,
you may want to grill vegetables
and
fruit directly
over
the heat,
using
the supplied
Cooking
Grids.
Foods
that work
best with direct
heat
are relatively
soft and require
a short
cooking
time:
mushrooms,
zucchini,
tomatoes
and skewered
fruit such as apricots,
peaches,
pineapple,
strawberries
and kiwis.
Remember
the Grill
Lid must
remain
up when
cooking
directly.
For very firm vegetables--particularly
potatoes
and yams,
we recommend
that you partially
boil until almost
cooked,
before
placing
them
on the grill. Cooking
times
using
the
indirect
method
with the lid down
will be similar
to those
for your
kitchen
oven.
However,
there are many factors
such
as outside
temperature,
wind
conditions
and
location
of grill that affect your
grill performance
so we
suggest
you watch
the temperature
gauge
and adjust
the
heat
accordingly.
Cooking
times for foods
prepared
with the direct
method
will be much
shorter
mainly
because
of the direct
heat
source
and softness
of the food.
Timing
will be compa-
rable
to normal
pan frying
or grilling.
