GRILLING TIPS

Always use grill on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface with drip pan and grill securely positioned in base.

Some smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of oils – this is normal.

Always place water in drip pan to maximum water level line to help reduce smoking and make clean up easier.

Always use hot pads when handling grill as handles and grill become hot during use.

Begin grilling at recommended heat setting. Adjust heat setting if needed during cooking.

The heat control dial can be set at LO, MED, HI or in between for grilling or at WARM for serving. Approximate temperatures of each setting are WARM (180°F), LO (250°F), MED (325°F) and HI (375°F).

Use solid end of grill to fry eggs, hash browns, grill pancakes, French toast, sandwiches, vegetables or warm buns. Brush vegetables with olive oil or vegetable oil for an attractive appearance.

Tender cuts of meat are best for grilling; to tenderize less tender cuts of meat, marinate before grilling.

Fish and seafood may be basted with melted butter or a flavored butter during grilling.

For best results, use tongs to turn meats to avoid piercing the skin. Use a wide spatula to turn fish, steaks, hamburgers, etc.

If using a barbecue sauce, baste meat during the last 5 minutes of grilling.
