Handy Hints.
•Tender cuts of meat such as scotch fillet and sirloin are ideal for grilling. Tougher cuts of meat such as topside or blade steak will tenderise if marinated for a few hours or overnight.
•Avoid turning food regularly. Once the food has been seared on both sides, cook food at a reduced heat setting. This prevents the food from drying out and will cook your food more evenly. Avoid overcooking meat as the texture will toughen.
•The grill hotplate is ideal for cooking a variety of meats, including beef, fish and poultry. The grill bars allow the fats and juices to drain into the drip tray for healthy, fat free cooking.
•The large flat hotplate is ideal for cooking a variety of foods such as eggs, bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes and onions. It is also handy for keeping foods warm, including stuffed mushrooms, filled potatoes or corn on the cob.
•The variable heat control has a wide range of heat settings ideal for specific cooking tasks. The table below lists suggested heat settings.

Note:
The BBQ Grill will take 5 minutes to reach the correct cooking temperature when set to the SuperSear setting. The hotplate is then ready for cooking. The indicator light will remain ON for a further 5 minutes until the temperature begins to cycle.
Note:
When barbecuing on high heat settings, the BBQ Grill will generate smoke. Selecting a lower heat setting will reduce smoke. For indoor use, adequate ventilation is recommended.
