Cooking Methods

For optimal use of the Sure SearTM system, the following cooking methods are recommended.

Direct Heat

Cooking by Direct Heat means the food is placed on grill grates directly above lighted burners. Hood position affects total cooking time.

Direct Heat sears the food. Searing is a process that seals natural juices in food by cooking with intense heat for a short period of time. While juices stay inside, the outside is browned with a flavorful grilled coating.

Indirect Heat

For best results, do not select the Indirect Heat cooking method when it is windy.

Cooking by Indirect Heat means the food is placed on the grill grate above an unheated burner, allowing heat from lighted burner(s) on either side to cook the food.

If possible, turn on two burners. Cook with the hood down. This will shorten the cooking time.

Indirect Cooking

Place food only on the grill grate over the OFF burners.
