Cooking with a Convection Grill
A convection grill has an internal fan that circulates heated air evenly throughout the grilling area when the hood is closed. Cooking in this way distributes heat more efficiently so you no longer have to be concerned with “hot spots” on the grill where food tends to burn. The fan switch is located at the far left of the front panel of the grill.

Grilling
NEVER allow children or pets unattended in an area where a grill is being used. Never allow children to sit, stand or play on or around the grill at any time. When in use, certain areas of the grill get hot enough to cause severe burns.
Leave the hood open for “Texas Style” open air grilling. Close the hood for “smoker” cooking.
For the greatest concentration of heat, leave the hood open. Adjust the crank handle to lift the charcoal tray up so the burning charcoal will be close to the grilling meat. Lower the charcoal tray to slow the grilling temperature.
Storage
Never store the grill with ashes or combustible materials inside. Do not store the grill until the fire is completely extinguished and the grill body has cooled.
