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 2 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.
Grilling Chart
Knobs have High, Medium and Low settings for flame
adjustment.
Heat settings indicated are approximate.
Grilling time is based on heating 2 adjacent burners with food
placed on grate directly above burners (direct heat).
Grilling times are affected by weather conditions.
Remove excess fat from edge of chops and steaks. Score
remaining fat at 2" (5 cm) intervals to avoid curling.
When 2 temperatures are provided, example: Medium to
Medium-Low, start with the first and adjust based on cooking
progress.
Cooking times may vary from chart times depending on the
type of fuel, Natural or LP gas.
