Refer to this list every time you grill
☐
Read Owner’s Manual
Be sure to have read the owner’s manual and all the safety instructions.
☐
Clean grease tray
Always ensure you clean the grease tray prior to grilling to avoid fires and flare-ups.
☐
Check the hose
Ensure the grill is off and cool. Check the hose for evidence of excessive abrasions,
or cuts. Have the hose replaced before use if the hose is damaged.
☐
Preheat and clean grids
Coat the grids with vegetable shortening and preheat your grill to burn off excess
residue and prevent sticking. Clean cast iron grids with a brass wire brush and
stainless steel grids with a stainless brush. See "
Cleaning Instructions" .
NOTE : Stainless steel cooking grids are corrosion resistant and require less
maintenance than cast iron grids.
☐
Prep area
Make sure everything you need while grilling such as your utensils, seasonings,
sauces, and dishes are within your reach. Don’t leave your food unattended, or it
could burn.
☐
Flip once and do not peek
Try not to open the lid and peek too much, or heat will escape and throw your
temperature and cooking times off. Flip your food only once, especially steak and
chicken.
☐
Leave space
Leave some space on the grill and between food, so you have room to move food
around if you need to.
☐
Use a thermometer
Use a thermometer to ensure food is cooked thoroughly. Follow the appropriate
temperatures guidelines for all types of meat, especially poultry.
