GRILL USE
GRILL
The
One side of the grill is ridged and should be used for foods where you want the fat to run off, such as steak or ham- burger patties. The ridges are slopped so the fat runs toward the front of the grill and can easily run down to the cooler area of the drip tray and away from the intense heat of the burner. The other side of the grill was designed for foods that need more support while cooking, such as fish.
Food cooked on this grill achieves the same flavor as food cooked on an outdoor grill. The intense radiant heat from the ceramic briquettes caramelizes the fats and juices that are brought to the surface of the food, giving it the barbe- cued flavor. This gas grill may cook slightly faster than you are used to.
CERAMIC BRIQUETTES
The layer of ceramic briquettes, under the grill racks, will last for many years with proper care. They are shipped from the factory
USE OF THE GRILL
For proper searing and browning the grill requires high heat. When cooking you will usually use the HI heat the entire cooking time. With large pieces of meat or poultry you may need to turn the heat to a lower setting after the food has been seared. This lower heat setting will allow the food to cook through without burning the outside. When using a sugary marinade or barbecue sauce it may be neces- sary to turn the heat setting down, near the end of the cooking time. Do not leave the grill unattended while it is turned on.
Before starting to cook on the grill, be sure the drip tray and liners are in place and that you have the grill racks turned to the side you want for cooking. Preheat the grill for 15 min- utes with the control knob set on HI. When the grill is pre- heated, place the food on the grill. Cook it to the doneness desired. During cooking it may be necessary to adjust the heat setting. The control knob may be set to any position between HI and LO. When you are finished cooking allow the grill and the drip trays to cool before cleaning them.
