Step 6
Place food on cooking grates and close grill lid. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure food is fully
cooked before removing from grill.
Step 7
Allow grill to cool completely, and then follow instructions in the "After-Use Safety" and "Care &
Maintenance" sections of this manual.
REGULATING HEAT
To increase heat, more wood and/or charcoal may be needed. Follow instructions in "Adding
Charcoal/Wood During Cooking" section of this manual.
To maintain the temperature, more wood and/or charcoal may need to be added during the cooking cycle.
Both dampers fully opened will generate higher temperatures while both dampers fully closed will lower
cooking temperature and extinguish flames.
NOTE: Dry wood burns hotter than charcoal, so you may want to increase the ratio of wood to charcoal to
increase the cooking temperature. When using wood as fuel, make sure the wood is seasoned and dry. DO
NOT use resinous wood such as pine as it will produce an unpleasant taste.
ADDING CHARCOAL/WOOD DURING COOKING
Additional charcoal and/or wood may be required to maintain or increase cooking temperature.
Step 1
Stand back and carefully open grill lid. Use caution since flames can flare-up when fresh air suddenly
comes in contact with fire.
Step 2
Remove the cooking grate and place it on a clean and non-combustible surface. DO NOT touch the
grate by hand without wearing oven mitts/gloves.
Step 3
Stand back a safe distance and use long cooking tongs to lightly brush aside ashes on hot coals. Use
cooking tongs to add charcoal and/or wood to charcoal rack, being careful not to stir-up ashes and sparks. If
necessary, use your charcoal chimney starter to light additional charcoal and/or wood and add to existing
fire.
WARNING: Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm coals as flashback may occur
causing severe burns.
Step 4
When charcoal is burning strong again, wear oven mitts/gloves and carefully return charcoal rack to grill
body. Extinguish any hot ashes, coals or embers which may have fallen from the grill or beneath and around
grill.
