BREAK-IN

To get the best fl avor from your fi rst cook and remove any manufacturing oils, "break-in" your grill.

For Electric use, break-in the element to remove the new appliance smell before cooking for the fi rst time. Once assem-

bled, plug in the element, set the control on high and burn it for about 10 minutes with the hood off .

To break-in with Charcoal, follow the charcoal lighting instructions to start approximately one pound of charcoal. When

fl ames go out and charcoal has started to turn gray, place the hood on the bowl with the vent dampers on the hood open.

Allow the charcoal to burn completely. Allow the grill to cool then empty the ashes and you are ready to cook.

STARTING A CHARCOAL FIRE IN YOUR OneFire GRILL

STEP 1. Use a high quality hardwood charcoal to make sure you get a good fi re. Charcoal briquettes made from maple,

oak, birch or elm woods will burn clean with very little smoke and without unpleasant odors.

STEP 2. Remove the hood.

STEP 3. Remove the Cooking Grid. Line the bottom of the Bowl with heavy duty aluminum foil.

STEP 4. Place about two pounds of charcoal (25-30 briquettes) in the bottom of the grill.

STEP 5. Make a pyramid shaped stack in the center of the Bowl and pour on charcoal lighter fl uid following the instruc-

tions on the container.

STEP 6. Let the lighter fl uid soak in for approximately one minute.

STEP 7. Carefully light the charcoal and let it burn for 20 to 30 minutes or until it is covered with a light gray ash. NOTE:

For a hot fi re in a hurry, use a fan or a bellows to create extra air movement over the charcoal. Be careful not to blow the

ashes out of the grill.

STEP 8. Use long-handled tongs to arrange the charcoal in a checkerboard pattern. Leave about one-half inch of space

between each piece of charcoal. This will help you to avoid fl are-up from the meat drippings and will give you more even

heat for grilling.

COOKING ON YOUR OneFire GRILL

ADJUSTABLE DRAFT...

FOR CHARCOAL: Leave the hood vents OPEN to INCREASE the heat, leave the hood vents CLOSED to DECREASE

the heat. It takes a few minutes for the charcoal to react to the vent adjustment.

FOR ELECTRIC: Leave the hood vents CLOSED to INCREASE the heat, leave the hood vents OPEN to DECREASE the

heat. It takes a few minutes for the charcoal to react to the vent adjustment.

SMOKING...

For true smoke fl avor, use chips or chunks of wood from nut or fruit trees such as hickory, walnut, cherry or apple. Soak

the chips in water overnight (or at least 2 hours before cooking) so they will not burn so quickly when you put them on the

charcoal or directly on the electric element.

After you get the fi re started and charcoal spread out, scatter the soaked chips on top of the hot charcoal using tongs.

Spray the Cooking Grid with cooking spray so food does not stick. Place the meat on the grid, close the hood, and adjust

the vents for the desired heat.

COOKING WITH THE ELECTRIC ELEMENT is similar to cooking with the charcoal model but is far simpler as no lighter

fl uid or charcoal is needed and the element is very consistent. Cooking times may vary slightly as the electric element

may be slower to heat back up after the hood has been opened.

Cook with hood covered to preserve natural food juices and enhance smoke fl avor. Cook hamburger-hot dog-steak favor-

ites on High. Cook small items like Cornish hens, that you wish to cook long and slow, on Low or Medium.

Note: The electric element is a slower but more constant heat source than charcoal but should not be confused with an

indoor electric skillet.

FLARE-UPS...Close the vents for at least one minute to stop fl are-ups.

PUTTING OUT THE CHARCOAL...Save your charcoal to use again by closing the hood vents. The charcoal will go out in

a little while and the next time you cook, you will need to add less new charcoal.
