Grilling Guide
(For 36” units with grill feature)
Generally we recommend preheating the grill 10 minutes on high. Then follow the guide below.
When grilling roasts and thick meats sear on high then reduce heat to allow food to cook
throughout and not burn. Turn meats once after juices appear on the surface. Flare-ups will
naturally occur when fat falls on the flame so do not leave unattended. Until flaming subsides
reduce heat and use a long handled spatula or tongs to move meat to a different area of grill.
Brush BBQ sauces on during last few minutes of grilling. To test for doneness make a small
slash in center of meat, not at the edge where more juices will be lost.
