PREPARATION FOR USE
& LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR GRILL.
Prior to your first use of the Brinkmann Smoke'N Pit, follow the instructions
below carefully to cure your grill. Curing your grill will minimize damage to the
exterior finish as well as rid the grill of paint odor that can impart unnatural
flavors to the first meal prepared on your Brinkmann Smoke'N Pit.
IMPORTANT: To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be
properly cured and covered at all times when not in use. A cover
for your Smoke'N Pit may be ordered directly from Brinkmann
by calling 800-468-5252.
Step 1
Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the Smoke'N Pit including cooking grills
with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray. Do not coat charcoal grates or
charcoal tray.
Step 2
Place a tin can on the grease cup holder. A tin can must be placed under
the grease hole at all times.
Step 3
Follow the instructions below carefully to build a fire. You may use charcoal
and/or wood as fuel in the Smoke'N Pit (see "Adding Charcoal/Wood During
Cooking" section of this manual).
WARNING: Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter fluid.
Use only a high grade plain charcoal or charcoal/wood mixture.
If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer's warnings and
instructions regarding the use of their product. Start with 8 to 10 pounds of
charcoal. This should be enough charcoal to cook with, once the curing
process has been completed. When charcoal is burning strong, carefully
place hot coals in center of each charcoal grate.
WARNING: DO NOT use grill without charcoal ash tray in place. DO NOT
attempt to remove charcoal ash tray while tray contains hot
coals.
NOTE: To extend the life of your grill, make sure that hot coals and wood
do not touch the walls of grill.
IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 6
Start with 8 to 10 pounds of charcoal. This should be enough charcoal to
cook with once the curing process has been completed. Open the firebox
air shutter approximately 1" to 2" and smokestack damper halfway. When
charcoal is burning strong, carefully place the hot coals in center of
charcoal grate in firebox.
