Indirect Cooking
means the food is cooked away from the direct flame by placing it on
the opposite side of the lit burner and allowing the heat to tumble within the closed
confines of the closed grill, very similar to a convection oven. Much like your oven, you
can roast and even bake, provided your grill lid is closed.
DUAL LEVEL GRIDS
By turning the grid 90°, you can lower the
grid, thus increasing your cooking flexibility.
(Available on certain Fiesta models.
See Figure 13.)
WARMING RACKS
A warming rack may be included with your grill and provides you with additional cooking
space away from direct heat. This is useful when cooking delicate items such as fish,
boneless chicken breasts or vegetables. Warming racks are also a great place to keep
food warm that is already done so you can serve your entire meal at the same time.
Fiesta offers single, double or our exclusive one-piece closed back cantilever warming
rack.
Tip:
A light application of cooking oil prior to use will help to keep food from sticking to
the warming rack.
CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS
Some flare-up during grilling is desirable to create the smoke, which gives grilled food its
unique flavor and appearance. However, excessive flare-up can not only ruin your food, it
may lead to a dangerous condition as well. By excessively raising the temperature within
your grill, particularly if a build up of grease in your grill ignites, these flare-ups may
result in an uncontrolled grease fire.
TO MINIMIZE FLARE-UPS:
• Trim excess fat from meats before cooking.
• Cook fatty meats on a low setting, or use the indirect method described above.
• Ensure that your cooking system is free of excess grease from previous usage.
• Check that the grease drain hole is not blocked.
• Cook with lid down to cut down on the flow of air.
• Reduce the heat settings.
