Indirect Cooking
Indirect Cooking Instructions
Poultry and large cuts of meat cook slowly to perfection on
the grill by indirect heat. The heat from selected burners
circulates gently throughout the grill, cooking meat or poultry
without the touch of a direct flame. This method greatly reduces
flare-ups when cooking extra fatty cuts because there is no direct
flame to ignite the fats and juices that drip during cooking.
• Always cook with the lid closed.
• Due to weather conditions, cooking times may vary. During
cold and windy conditions the temperature setting may need
to be increased to insure sufficient cooking temperatures.

Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor
cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria,
follow these four basic steps:
Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water
before and after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat
foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and
utensils when removing cooked foods.
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a
thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.

How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly
•
•
•
•
•
Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very fast on the
outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached
a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for
visual signs of doneness.
Whole poultry should reach 180° F; breasts, 170° F. Juices
should run clear and flesh should not be pink.
Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should reach
160° F, and be brown in the middle with no pink juices. Beef,
veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked to 145°
F. All cuts of pork should reach 160° F.
NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish cooking later.
Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.
When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot
dogs, grill to 165° F, or until steaming hot.
