Should a flare-up occur, move food away from the flames and reduce the heat. Leave the lid open. See Your All Season Grill cookbook by Napoleon for more detailed instructions. Direct Cooking: Place food to be cooked on the grill directly over the heat. This method is generally used for searing or for foods that do not require prolonged cooking times such as hamburgers, steaks, chicken pieces, or vegetables.
Page 9 Any juices or oils that escape from the food drip onto the charcoal and vaporize into smoke giving the food its delicious grilled taste. The Napoleon infrared burner cooks in the same way. In each burner, 10,000 ports – each with its own tiny flame – cause the surface of the ceramic tile to glow red. This glow emits the same type of infrared heat to the food as charcoal, without its hassle or mess.
