Please note: To be sure your food is fully cooked the USDA recommends the
following guidelines. Using a meat thermometer cook test for doneness by
inserting the meat thermometer into the center of the food being cooked and
make sure the thermometer is not touching the bone.

GRILLING TIPS
• To prevent heat loss and for even cooking, do not open the lid frequently.
• Do not overfill grill.
• When first cooking a particular food, check for doneness several minutes
before suggested time; if necessary adjust time.
• When cooking several pieces of food, try to have them similar in size and
thickness.
• Remember that since grill is cooking from both sides cooking time will typically
be shorter than expected. Watch carefully to avoid overcooking.
• For added flavor, add dry seasonings before grilling or marinate foods before
cooking.
Important: Use only silicone, plastic and wooden utensils when cooking on the
grill. Silicone utensils are especially good because they do not discolor or melt
with the high temperature.
