Brinkmann SMOKE 'N PIT Charcoal Grill User Manual


 
When grilling in cooking chamber, close the ash-guard shield to contain
ashes and embers.
WARNING: A metal bucket or tin can must be placed under the grease
hole at all times to catch grease and/or ashes. Check grease
level in bucket or tin can often and empty or change when w
full. Use extreme caution as bottom of cooking chamber,
container and contents will be hot.
Step 1
Remove cooking grills from cooking chamber and set aside. Place two
charcoal grates in bottom of cooking chamber.
Step 2
Follow instructions below carefully to build a fire in the cooking
chamber. You may use charcoal and/or wood as fuel in the Smoke’N
Pit Professional (see “Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cooking” section
of this manual).
If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer’s warnings
and instructions regarding the use of their product. Open the firebox
air vent approximately 1" to 2" and smokestack damper halfway.
Carefully place 8 to 10 pounds of hot coals in center of charcoal grates
in cooking chamber. Using long cooking tongs, carefully spread
briquets evenly on the charcoal grates, one to two layers thick.
NOTE: To extend the life of your smoker, make sure that hot charcoal
and wood do not touch the walls of the firebox.
IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 5.
If you choose to use charcoal lighting fluid, ONLY use charcoal lighting
fluid approved for lighting charcoal. Do not use gasoline, kerosene,
alcohol or other flammable material for lighting charcoal. Follow all
manufacturer’s warnings and instructions regarding the use of their
product. Place 8 to 10 pounds of charcoal in center of charcoal grate in
cooking chamber.
WARNING: Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with
lighter fluid. Use only a high grade plain charcoal or
charcoal/wood mixture.
Step 3
Saturate charcoal with lighting fluid. With lid open, wait 2 to 3 minutes
to allow lighting fluid to soak into charcoal. Store charcoal lighting fluid
safely away from the grill.
Step 4
Open the firebox air vent approximately 1" to 2" and smokestack
damper half way. Stand back and carefully light charcoal. With firebox
and cooking chamber lids open, allow charcoal to burn until covered
with a light ash (approximately 20 minutes). Charcoal lighting fluid
must be allowed to completely burn off prior to closing firebox and
cooking chamber lid.
WARNING: Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal lighting
fluid in grill and may result in a flash-fire or explosion when
lids are opened.
