weber Charcoal & Go-Anywhere Grill None - Manual (Page 6)

• Resist the urge to open the lid to check on
your dinner every couple of minutes. Every
time you lift the lid heat escapes, which
means it will take longer to get dinner on
the table.
• Unless the recipe calls for it, turn your food
over only once.
• You will control flare-ups, reduce cooking
time, and get altogether better results if you
grill with the lid down.
• Resist the urge to use a spatula to press
down on foods such as burgers. You’ll
squeeze out all that wonderful flavor.
• A light coating of oil will help brown your
food evenly and keep it from sticking to the
cooking grate. Always brush or spray oil on
your food, not the cooking grate.
FOOD SAFETY TIPS
• Wash your hands thoroughly with
hot, soapy water before starting any
mealpreparation and after handling fresh
meat, fish, and poultry.
• Do not defrost meat, fish, or poultry at room
temperature. Defrost in the refrigerator.
• Never place cooked food on the same
plate the raw food was on.
• Wash all plates and cooking utensils which
have come into contact with raw meats or
fish with hot, soapy water and rinse.
