Care of your BBQ Guru
Your BBQ Guru is a robust solid-state system, requiring little maintenance. Still, there are a few things
you can do to insure its function for the long term. Always remove the BBQ Guru before washing your
Caldera Del Fuego Tallboy or disassembling it.
Probes
Our probes are made of high quality, high temperature
materials. The Pit Minder probes can safely take
temperatures of up to 370° F while the Competitor and
ProCom4 probes can withstand temperatures of up to
400° F.
We recommend that you use the rear panel grommet or the center door grommet for probe
installation. This keeps the probe wires away from the firebox. This will prevent the probes from
melting due to unforeseen flare up or excessive heat coming up from the fire box.
Your BBQ Guru comes with a small piece of brown Scotch-brite
TM
pad. This is to be used for
cleaning the stainless steel probe between cooks. Do not put your probes in the dishwasher or
submerge them in water. Grease wipes easily off of the Teflon coated probe wires. Use alcohol
on a soft cloth to clean the probe leads when necessary.
Turbo Draft Fan
Clean the fan and its wires using spray glass cleaner or soap. Never
submerge the fan in water or beer.
Check the fan for obstructions before installing it in your cooker.
Lightly lubricate the nose of the fan with vegetable-based shortening
before inserting it in the Inducer tube. Use a non-stick spray for this
purpose by spraying your finger and then wiping the fan O-ring.
BBQ Guru Controller (and Optional Pendant)
Clean the controller by wiping it with a clean cloth. Stubborn dirt and
grease may be removed using spray glass cleaner; never wet or
submerge the unit.
Remove the batteries from the unit for storage.
