Charcoal barbecues are extremely versatile. High temperatures are ideal for quickly cooking
burgers and sausages, try adding some wood chips to the charcoal, or try combining different
flavor wood chips to make your meats even more flavorful.
FIRST USE – GRILL BURN-OFF
Before using your smoker for the first time with food, it is important to complete a burn-off.
Starting the smoker and operating at 177°C / 350°F with the grill lid on for 30 to 40 minutes will
burn-off the unit and rid it of any foreign matter.

PREHEATING

It is important to allow your grill to preheat before adding food to the unit. This allows the grill
and cooking grids to heat up quicker, kill off bacteria and other pathogens leftover from past
cooking sessions, and the grill is then able to maintain its temperature once your food is placed.
Preheat with the grill lid on.
IMPORTANT: The outside ambient temperature, weather conditions, and quality of
charcoal briquettes will all affect your cooking temperature. Observe the time it takes
to reach your desired temperature, and adjust your cooking time as needed.

START-UP PROCEDURE

1. Ensure the Fan Control Knob is turned off.
2. Remove the grill lid, cooking grid, and charcoal box lid.
3. Place charcoal briquettes into the charcoal box, on top
of the airflow plate. This creates space between the fan
and the fuel for airflow. Add some lighter cubes, or solid
firelighters, to assist with lighting the charcoal briquettes.
4. Light the lighter cubes using a long-nosed lighter or safety
matches. Once it has caught, leave the charcoal box lid off
for about 10 minutes to allow all charcoal briquettes to
light. Turn the Fan Control Knob on to maximum.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not stoke or turn the
charcoal once they are alight. This allows the charcoals to
burn more uniformly and efficiently.
5. After 10 minutes, replace the charcoal box lid on the
charcoal box, then replace the cooking grid, and finally the
grill lid. Monitor the temperature on the grill lid and allow
the unit to preheat for approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
Check the Ventilation Knob on the back of the grill lid,
and leave the airflow vents fully open.
