Grilling Tips and
Hints
Safe Grill Operation
NEVER leave cooking food unattended.
Continually observing the food will help
in maintaining an even temperature,
conserve flame, improve the food's
flavor and lessen flare-ups.
To open the grill lid, slowly lift the
handle to avoid burning in case of a
grease fire flare-up.
DO NOT expose any part of your body
directly above the cooking area.
Food Preparation Hints
Your grill can cook a variety of foods. For
best results, follow these instructions:
Trim excess fat from meat and poultry.
Slash any remaining fat to stop curling,
but take care not to cut the meat.
Frozen meat and poultry should be
thawed prior to cooking.
Frozen fish and vegetables will cook
without thawing.
Salt food after cooking to help prevent
drying out the food.
Brush naturally lean meats with
cooking oil or margarine.
Cook small pieces of tender foods in
foil or on special delicate-food cooking
grate (see the section titled "Cooking
Methods").
Apply barbecue, tomato or sugar-
based sauces no sooner than the last
10 m inutes of cooking.
Turn food with tongs or a spatula;
piercing food (especially meat), tends
to dry it out.
Cooking Methods
The heat source is directly below
the food.
Use for browning meat or cooking hot
dogs and hamburgers, but check
food frequently.
Use for skillet and stir-fry cooking, but
limit the amount of oil and heat to
be used.
Cook roasts, turkey or duck on low
heat. Place meat with water in a
foil pan with a corrugated bottom.
Replenish water as needed.
