FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reduce the temperature quickly?
Close the bottom slide door and the top vent completely. Keep them
completely closed until you reach the cooking temperature; afterward
readjust the slide door and the top vent to regulate the temperature. For
extreme temperature reductions, open the lid for a few moments.
Should I use liquid lighter fluid?
No! You should never use liquid lighter fluid because the ceramic will
absorb the smell of the liquid and will affect the taste of your food. This
will also void the warranty.
Can I Cook With The Lid Open?
No. If you cook with the lid open you are losing all the cooking
characteristics of your Primo® and all the benefits of cooking with a
ceramic grill. In the end, you will wind up with dried-out food.
Do I Need A Rotisserie With My Primo®?
You will not need a rotisserie. Due to the equal distribution of the heat
within the Primo®, food cooks evenly. Most food, such as roasts, whole
turkeys, or chicken do not need to be turned.
Can I cook different kinds of food at the same time?
Yes. The Primo® allows you to cook different food simultaneously and
at fairly different temperatures when cooking with a half-filled firebox.
Can I bake pizza or bread in the Primo®?
Yes. Use a ceramic baking stone (Primo® Pizza Stone recommended)
for exceptional results.
Should I use a drip pan?
Using a drip pan helps prevent flame ups, and is recommended espe-
cially when roasting large pieces of meat.
Should I raise or lower the cooking rack(s)?
No. The heat circulates all around the food and you don't need to place
the grill closer to the charcoal.
Can I use my Primo® for smoking?
Yes. For smoking you need to adjust the temperature of your Primo®
between 150°F-250°F. If you want to add flavor you can put in some of
your favorite wood chips.
