PREPARATION BEFORE LIGHTING THE BARBECUE
LIGHTING CHARCOAL BARBECUES WITH A LIGHTING GRATE
• Place your OUTDOORCHEF charcoal kettle barbecue on a level, firm surface.
• Before lighting the charcoal, make sure that the ash tray is inserted correctly and that all
ventilation slots are open.
The position of the ventilation openings at the bottom is illustrated clearly by an indicator
on the ash tray.
• The heat can be regulated easily by opening and closing the ventilation openings: opening
increases the temperature and closing reduces it.
• OUTDOORCHEF recommends: Use standard firelighter blocks and paper to light your
barbecue instead of firelighting fluid.
• To obtain a high and constant heat, OUTDOORCHEF recommends using high-quality
charcoal briquettes instead of ordinary charcoal. Store these in a dry place.
• Use the following starting quantities to fill your OUTDOORCHEF charcoal kettle barbecue:
You can find suitable charcoal or briquettes at your OUTDOORCHEF retailer.

1. Before lighting, remove all the internal parts (barbecue grid, funnel, juice tray, charcoal
grate) from the barbecue to ensure sufficient air and consequently burning performance.
2. Insert the small lighting grate, cover it with standard firelighter blocks and ignite them. Do
not use any liquids such as petrol, spirits or similar firelighting fluids. Never add firelighting
fluid or charcoal soaked in firelighting fluid to hot or warm charcoal.
3. Now insert the charcoal grate and cover it preferably with briquettes (refer to the starting
fill quantities indicated in the chapter PREPARATION BEFORE LIGHTING THE
BARBECUE). Make sure no briquettes are in contact with the kettle.
4. Leave the lid open and allow the charcoal to burn for around 30-45 minutes until it is
glowing evenly and covered by a white layer.
Only now are you ready to start barbecuing.
5. "Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash."
