Tramontina CHURRASCO TCP-320L Manual De Instrucciones página 15

• Keep the lid off of your charcoal grill until the charcoal is at the right
point for your recipe.
• To grill food that requires short cooking time (less than 30 minutes),
it is ideal to use the direct method where the food is placed on the
grate and turned at half the total time required so that even cooking is
achieved on both sides.
Attention: when the grill is used with the lid on for longer periods of
time, the embers will generate less heat or may even be extinguished.
Reasons to use the lid on the grill:
• To extinguish the flames: Place the lid on the grill to extinguish the
flames and to burn fat. In order to keep the embers lit even when your
grill is covered, make sure there are empty spaces between the food so
that the air outlets are not blocked.
Attention: Never use water to extinguish flames.
• For even cooking: When used correctly, the lid of your grill allows food
to cook more evenly because the heat is distributed throughout the
whole barbecue grill.
Attention when handling the cooking grates:
*For TCP -320L use the utensil for the handling grates that come with the
product.

• For proper airflow, remove the ashes that accumulate at the bottom
of the tray. However, before removing them, make sure the embers are
extinguished.

amount of charcoal indicated below:
• After approximately 15 to 25 minutes of heat, spread the embers with a
longhandled utensil. We recommend using Tramontina utensils.
