Grilling
Grilling over lava rocks
Before cooking, remove the grill racks and raise the heating elements. Take the lava rocks out of their bag and put them into the lava rock tray.
We recommend
This will allow the food to cook using heat radiated by the lava rocks.
Meat can be lightly brushed with oil be- fore grilling.
If you wish to add herbs to the food while grilling, they can be sprinkled di- rectly onto the meat or onto the lava rocks, so the aroma reaches the food.
As the lava rocks absorb the fat which drips onto them, they will eventually become saturated. When the stones become dark, they should be changed.
Smoke forms when fat drops onto hot lava rocks. With a DA 8 extractor situ- ated next to the grill, the smoke can be removed from the atmosphere.
Grilling over the water trough
Before turning on the heating elements:
remove the lava rock tray from the grill.
First check that the drain valve underneath the grill is closed, then fill the trough up to the lower rim with approx. 1/2 gallon of hot water.
We recommend
This will allow the food to be cooked by steam, as well as heat from the grill. The trough will also be easier to clean.
Meat can be brushed with oil before being grilled.
Drops of fat will be cooled immediately in the water trough, so that they cannot catch fire.
When grilling, monitor the level of water in the trough; if necessary, carefully add more water.
After grilling, drain out the water and oil through the drain valve (see ”Cleaning and Care“).
