Argos 345/1319 Assembly Instructions Manual
Care and Maintenance
1. To make it easier to clean your barbecue after use line the fire bowl with aluminum cooking
foil, shiny side up. Remember to leave ventilation holes clear by piercing the foil where neces-
sary. This process will lengthen the life of your barbecue and reflect the heat more efficiently
on to the food.
2. Charcoal is available in lump wood form (large irregular pieces) and as briquettes (uniformly
sized pieces). As a guide lumpwood charcoal is the best in barbecues for quickly cooked foods
such as sausages and burgers whilst briquettes are more suitable for a roast as they burn
longer and hotter.
3. It is not advisable to completely fill the fire bowl as the barbecue may become far too hot to
cook successfully. As a guide a 3kg bag of charcoal in a 43cm (17") diameter barbecue should
last for at least 2 full barbecue fires.
4. If the fire flares up due to dripping fat then douse the flames lightly with a fine water spray.
5. When you have finished cooking never pour cold water directly on the coals to extinguish them
as this may damage your barbecue. Use old cinder, sand or a fine water spray.
6. Empty the bottom bowl of ashes when they are completely cold.
7. To clean your barbecue, soak the cooking grill and tools in hot soapy water as soon as
possible after use. Dry thoroughly and store in a dry place.
Protect the barbecue with a cover or store inside.
Do not leave your barbecue outside unprotected.
Food Safety
• Thoroughly defrost frozen meat and poultry in the refrigerator before cooking. Keep raw meat
and poultry separate from cooked foods
• Ensure that the grill is thoroughly cleaned before cooking and lighting the barbecue.
• Always wash hands after handling raw meat and poultry, before handling any ready to eat food.
• Wipe and disinfect surfaces that have been in contact with raw meat and poultry.
• When barbecuing meat and poultry, make sure the barbecue is really hot. Place the larger,
thicker portions furthest away from the most intense heat to ensure thorough cooking without
burning and turn regularly.
• Use separate utensils for handling raw meat/poultry and cooked food on the barbecue, or wash
them thoroughly between use.
• To check whether meat, particularly poultry, is cooked, pierce the flesh with a skewer or fork;
the juices should run clear. Ensure the product is piping hot throughout.
