Grilling Steak
Preheat the grill using the highest setting for no more
than 15 minutes. Open Lid and place the meat on the
Cooking Grid. Cook the meat on both sides until
seared. Maintain high heat and cook until done.
Grilling times will vary according to meat thickness.
Grilling Hamburgers
Preheat the grill using the highest setting for no more
than 15 minutes. Open Lid and place the meat on the
Cooking Grid. Cook the meat on both sides until
seared. Maintain heat and cook until done. Grilling
times will vary according to meat thickness.
Grilling Poultry
Preheat the grill using the highest setting for no more
than 15 minutes. Open Lid and place the poultry on
the Cooking Grid. Cook the poultry on both sides until
seared. Maintain heat and cook until done. Grilling
times will vary according to poultry thickness.
Poultry skin is fatty so you should expect some flare-
ups. You can choose to remove the skin or excess
fat to prevent these flare ups.
Grilling Pork
Preheat the grill using the highest setting for no more
than 15 minutes. Open Lid and place the meat on the
Cooking Grid. Cook the meat on both sides until
seared. Maintain heat and cook until done. Grilling
times will vary according to meat thickness.
Grilling Fish
Preheat the grill using the highest setting for no more
than 15 minutes. Open Lid and place fish (skin
down) on the Cooking Grid. Cook the fish on both
sides until seared. Cook until fish is opaque but still
moist.
Vegetables and Fruit
Preheat the grill using the highest setting for no more
than 15 minutes. Open Lid and place food on the
Cooking Grid. Vegetables and fruit that work best on
the grill are relatively soft and require a short cooking
time: mushrooms, zucchini, tomatoes and skewered
fruit such as apricots, peaches, pineapple, straw-
berries and kiwis.
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 will be comparable to normal pan
frying.
Guide to Grilling
Using Your Instant Read Thermometer
Outside conditions can affect your grill's ability to heat
evenly. This may make it hard to figure out how your food's
cooking. You can use the included instant read thermom-
eter to take the away the guesswork of knowing when your
food is done. We've included a guide with approximate
internal temperatures and levels of doneness.
To test for doneness, place the probe a couple of inches
into the thickest part of your food to get a reading. Make
sure the probe does not touch any bone. Once you've got
a reading, take the probe out. Do not leave the probe in
your food for the cooking duration.
The meat should come off the grill 5-10 degrees below
the desired final temperature as the internal temperature
will continue to rise as the meat rests. You should let your
meat rest for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
