Curing Your Grill
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR GRILL.
Prior to your first use of the Brinkmann Mini Offset Smoker and Grill, follow the
in struc tions 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 Mini Offset Smoker and Grill.
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 Mini
Offset Smoker and Grill may be ordered directly from Brinkmann by
calling
800-468-5252.
Step 1
Remove cooking grills from cooking cham ber and firebox and set aside.
Step 2
Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the Mini Offset Smoker and Grill including
cooking grills with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray. Do not coat charcoal
grates or charcoal tray.
Step 3
Place a tin can on the grease cup holder. A tin can must be placed under the
grease hole at all times.
Step 4
Follow the instructions below carefully to build a fire. You may use charcoal
and/or wood as fuel in the Mini Offset Smoker and Grill (see "Adding Charcoal/
Wood During Cooking" section of this manual).
NOTE: We recommend using charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter
fluid or a charcoal chimney starter.
WARNING: DO NOT store lighter fluid or other flammable liquids, material or
charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter fluid under or around
the grill.
If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer's warn ings and
instructions regarding the use of their product. Start with 5.5 pounds of
charcoal in cooking chamber and 2.5 pounds of charcoal in firebox. This should
be enough charcoal to cook with, once the curing process has been completed.
Step 5
With lids open, raise charcoal grate in the cooking chamber to highest level,
stand back and carefully light charcoal and allow to burn until covered with
a light ash (approximately 20 minutes). When charcoal is burning strong,
carefully place hot coals in center of charcoal grates.
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.
