COOKInG GRIdS
The heavy mass of the cast iron girds absorbs heat and provides
unsurpassed searing performance to lock in the natural juices of food on
the grill. Cast iron grids are coated with a durable porcelain finish to assist
in cleaning and help prevent rust. Some chipping may occur if mishandled.
This will not affect the use of performance of the grids. If some rust appears,
remove the rust with a scrub pad and coat the grid with cooking oil.
BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash the new cast iron grids with mild soap and water
to remove any residue. Rinse thoroughly.
TO COOK: The grids may be used in the standard level or slope
position (Fig. 0). When grilling lean meats, use the standard level
position. The concave channels of the grids will cradle some of the food’s
juices to lubricate the grids to reduce sticking, and to baste the food while
grilling. For foods that generate a lot of juices, use the slope position. Excess
juices will run down the concave channels and drain away to the drip pan to
help prevent excessive flare-ups.
TO CLEAN: With a grill brush, remove any remaining food.
Allow the grids to cool. Wash with mild soap and water, and wipe dry. Coat
the grids with cooking oil when not in use.
