GRILL:

Each grill section consists of a large stainless steel burner, a series of ceramic rods en-

cased in a stainless steel radiant, grease shield and a stainless steel heat retaining grate.

Below the burners there is a stainless steel heat shield which reflects usable heat upward

into the cooking area and reduces temperatures of the drip pan below. Above the burn-

ers are stainless steel radiants which encase the ceramic rods and protect the grill burner

ports from blockage (Fig. 35).

The grill is supplied with radiant ceramic rods. Because of the porosity of ceramic rods,

performance is superior in the rods’ ability to capture heat as it rises from the grill burn-

ers. They also possess the thermal mass needed for even cooking performance. Flare ups are controlled because

the radiant ceramic rods keeps grease from getting to the flames and igniting. The intense heat produced by this

system produces true grilled flavour as fats and juices are brought to the surface of the food and caramelized.

Discolouration of the grates is normal after use.

DIRECT/INDIRECT COOKING NOTES:

Direct cooking involves placing food on grates over lighted burners. Use this method for foods that take less than

20 minutes to cook or to sear larger items at the start of the cooking process that will then be indirectly cooked to

finish. Place items on the preheated surface and leave until they no longer stick. Turning too soon and too often

is one of the most common grilling mistakes. Never spray water on the grill or into grease. The patented Grease

Management System™ reduces flare-ups by channeling grease away from the flame. Use a meat thermometer to

achieve desired doneness and remove items one degree below how you would like to enjoy them, as the resting

period before carving or consuming will raise the temperature.

Indirect cooking method is a popular alternative to direct heat grilling. Indirect cooking uses heat from adjacent

burners to cook food and, in many cases, reduces the possibility of overcooked or overly browned food. Foods

most appropriate for indirect grilling included breads thicker pieces of chicken or steaks. Indirect cooking in-

volves placing the food on grates where the burners below are not lit and then closing the grill hood to create an

oven effect. All the items you usually oven-roast can be grilled to perfection using indirect heating. Preheat the

burners surrounding the food to be cooked. Use a roasting pan with a grid to hold food and add water or chicken

broth to the pan to prevent the natural juices from burning or evaporating.

IMPORTANT

Using the Grill:

To season the grates, pour a tablespoon of vegetable oil on a soft cloth and rub on both sides of the grates.

Only a light coating is needed and some smoke may be visible during the preheating. Grilling requires high

heat for searing and proper browning. When grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary to

turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without burning the

outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower heat setting near

the end of the cooking time.
