Additional charcoal and/or wood may be required to maintain or
increase cooking temperature.
Step 1
Stand back and carefully open grill lid. Use caution since flames
can flare-up when fresh air suddenly comes in contact with fire.
Step 2
Wearing oven mitts/gloves, use charcoal grate adjuster cranks to
place charcoal grates at the lowest level of cooking chamber. Open
doors to allow access to charcoal grates.
Step 3
Stand back a safe distance and use long cooking tongs to lightly
brush aside ashes on hot coals. Use cooking tongs to add charcoal
and/or wood to charcoal grates, being careful not to stir-up ashes
and sparks. If necessary, use your Charcoal Chimney Starter to
light additional charcoal and/or wood and add to existing fire.
WARNING: Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm
coals as flashback may occur causing severe burns.
Step 4
When charcoal is burning strong again, wear oven mitts/gloves and
carefully return charcoal grates to desired cooking level. Ensure
that no ashes, coals or embers which may have fallen from doors
beneath the grill, as a fire could start. If necessary, completely wet
beneath and around grill with water to extinguish any fallen ashes,
coals or embers.
Step 5
Close the grill lid and doors. Allow food to continue cooking.
Step 1
Check the water level in water pan if the complete cooking process
will take longer than 3 hours. A low water level can be detected by
listening for the sound of water simmering.
CAUTION: Charcoal grate must be set at lowest level. Never raise or
lower charcoal grate when water smoking as hot water
may splash onto coals creating a burst of hot steam and
coals.
Step 2
Lift lid over food and water pan. Use caution since flames can
flare-up when fresh air suddenly comes in contact with fire. Inspect
the water level in the pan.
Step 3
If water level is low, add water to water pan. Water may be added
to the water pan by moving food aside on cooking grill and pouring
water down through the cooking grill. Pour slowly to avoid
splashing or over-filling.
Step 4
Carefully fill water pan with warm water or marinade to 1" below
the rim. Do not overfill or allow water to overflow from water pan
as hot water may splash onto coals creating a burst of hot steam
and coals.
