You must preheat the grill 

(15 or 20 minutes) before 

you cook on it. 

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 onto your food, not directly onto the 
cooking grate.

We suggest that you grill with the lid down. Why? 
Because it reduces the chance of flare-ups, and cooks 
your food faster and more evenly.

When using a marinade, sauce or glaze with a high 
sugar content or other ingredients that burn easily, only 
brush it onto the food during the last 10 to 15 minutes 
of grilling.

Don’t forget to regularly brush off your cooking grate 
and clean out the drip pan under the grill.

The following cuts, thicknesses, weights, and grilling 
times for food are meant to be guidelines rather than 
hard and fast rules. Cooking times are affected by such 
factors as  wind, outside temperature and how well 
done the food should be cooked. Grill for the time given 
on the chart or to the desired degree of doneness, 
turning once halfway through the grilling time. Cooking 
times for beef and lamb are for “medium” cooking time, 
unless otherwise noted. Let thick chops and steaks 
rest for 5 to 10 minutes before carving. The internal 
temperature of the meat will rise by 5 to 10 degrees 
during this time.
