Seasoning Your AKORN
Seasoning is the first step before you start cooking on your new grill. This process will help protect
the cast iron grates, reduce food sticking to the grates, improve searing, and reduce unnatural flavors.
Char-Griller
recommends using flaxseed oil for seasoning your grill but most food grade oils (canola,
®
grapeseed, vegetable, safflower, etc) will work as well.
ATTENTION!
• DO NOT use a charcoal chimney to ignite charcoal.
Over-activation of charcoal will prevent controller from
being able to control temperature.
• BE PATIENT. Time to reach desired temperature
will vary by fuel type, number of fire starters and
placement, as well as weather conditions. See Lighting
Instructions on pages C-2 – C-5.
• Use ONE fire starter for smoking (200-250°F).
• TWO fire starters can be used to achieve higher
temperatures (350-700°F).
• The appropriate fuel amount must be added to reach
desired temperature. See Lighting Instructions on
pages C-2 – C-5.

STEP 1: OIL COOKING GRATE
1. Thoroughly coat both sides of the cooking grate with
flaxseed or other food grade oil.
2. Prepare approx. 2-3 lb of lump charcoal on the fire grate.
Follow the Lighting Instructions on page C-2 – C-5.
STEP 2: HEAT UP GRILL
1. Following the instructions for operating the Auto-Kamado
Controller (pages C-9 – C-11) and the lighting instructions
(page C-2 – C-5).
2. Ignite the fuel, bring the temperature to approximately 350°F,
and close the lid.
3. Once at temperature, allow grill surfaces to season for
20 minutes.
STEP 3: RE-APPLY OIL TO GRATES 3X
1. After 20 minutes, pause the fan (see Power section on page
C-10), open your grill and allow grates to cool.
2. Using a brush, re-coat both sides of your cooking grates with
flaxseed or other food grade oil.
3. Close lid, resume the fan and allow surfaces
to season for 20 minutes.
4. Repeat this process up to three times to improve the
nonstick surface.
5. Your grill is now ready for use.
