TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
BREAKING IN YOUR GRILL:
Before cooking on your Crown Verity Inc. charbroiler for the first time; operate it on high
for 10 minutes with the lid(s) open, then with the lids closed for a further 10 minutes to
ensure any dirt or protective oil has burned off. This will ensure the flavour of your food.
For best cooking results, always preheat your charbroiler.
CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS:
Some flare-up during grilling is desirable since the burning juices from the meat creates
the smoke which gives barbecued food its unique flavour and appearance. However,
excessive flare-up can not only ruin your food, it may lead to a dangerous condition,
particularly if a build-up of grease in your charbroiler ignites, resulting in an uncontrolled
grease fire. We suggest adding about 1” of water to the grease tray(s) prior to cooking.
This will cool the falling grease and facilitate clean-ups.
To Minimize flare-ups:
• Trim excess fat from meats before cooking.
• Cook fatty meats (chicken and pork) on low setting or by indirect method (see
section below).
• Check that grease tray(s) is in place & add 1” of water.
• Do not cover cooking grids with foil, or use broiling pans. Allow drippings to fall into the
grease tray(s).
COOKING TECHNIQUES:
There are several ways to cook on your Crown Verity Inc. charbroiler, here are but a few:
Lid Up or Lid Down
Although keeping the lid up or down when grilling directly on the grids is a matter of
personal choice, you’ll find your charbroiler will keep a more constant temperature, and
your food will cook in less time, using less energy with the lid down. For cooking which
requires a long cooking period over a low flame, keep lid down.
Direct or Indirect Method
Now you can sear meats over a high flame on one side of the charbroiler while you slow
cook a roast in a roasting pan on the other. The multiple cooking arrangement also
makes it possible for you to turn your charbroiler into an outdoor baking oven. Light one
side of the grill and place the food on the grill above the unlit side. Close the lid and turn
the control(s) to low. The heat from the lit burner(s) gently circulates throughout the
charbroiler, cooking the food by indirect heat. A thermometer in the roll top(s) will help
you monitor the inside temperature.
