WARNING

• Only use this grill on a hard, level, non-combustible, stable surface (concrete, ground, etc.) capable of supporting the weight of
the grill. Never use on wooden or other sur fac es that could burn.

• DO NOT use grill without charcoal tray in place. DO NOT attempt to remove charcoal tray while tray contains hot coal.

• Proper clearance of 10 feet between the grill and com bus ti ble material (bushes, trees, wooden decks, fences, buildings, etc.) or
construction should be maintained at all times when grill is in use. Do not place grill under a roof overhang or other enclosed area.

• For outdoor use only. Do not operate grill indoors or in an enclosed area.

• For household use only. Do not use this grill for other than its intended purpose.

• We recommend the use of a Charcoal Chimney Starter to avoid the dangers associated with charcoal lighting fluid. If you choose
to use charcoal lighting fluid, only use lighting fluid approved for lighting charcoal. Care ful ly read man u fac tur er’s warnings and
instructions on the charcoal lighting fluid and charcoal prior to the use of their product. Store charcoal lighting fluid safely away
from grill.

• When using charcoal lighting fluid, allow charcoal to burn with grill lid and doors open until covered with a light ash
(approximately 20 min utes). This will allow charcoal lighting fluid to burn off. Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal
lighting fluid in grill and may result in a flash fire or explosion when lid is opened.

• Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter fluid. Use only a high grade plain charcoal or charcoal/wood mixture.

• Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting char coal. Use of any of these or similar products could cause an explosion
possibly leading to severe bodily injury.

• Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm coals as flashback may occur causing severe burns.

• Place grill in an area where children and pets cannot come into contact with unit. Close supervision is necessary when grill
is in use.

• Do not leave grill unattended when in use.

• When adding charcoal and/or wood, use extreme caution and follow instructions in “Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cooking”
section of this manual.

• Do not store or use grill near gasoline or other flammable liquids, gases or where flammable vapors may be present.

• Do not store lighter fluid or other flammable liquids or material under the grill.

• Use caution when adjusting charcoal grate height. Handle may be hot when in use.

• Never raise or lower charcoal grate when water smoking as hot water may splash onto coals creating a burst of hot steam and
coals.

Grill is hot when in use. To avoid burns:

• DO NOT attempt to move the grill.

• Brace grill so the unit does not accidentally move.

• Wear protective gloves or oven mitts.

• DO NOT touch any hot grill surfaces.

• DO NOT wear loose clothing or allow hair to come in contact with grill.

WARNING

• When grilling, grease from meat may drip into the charcoal and cause a grease fire. If this should happen close lid to suffocate
the flame. Do not use water to extinguish grease fires.

and body a safe distance from hot steam and flame flare-ups.

• Do not exceed a temperature of 400°F. Do not allow charcoal and/or wood to rest on the walls of grill. Doing so will great ly
reduce the life of the metal and finish of your grill.

• Use caution when assembling and operating your grill to avoid scrapes or cuts from sharp edges of metal parts. Use caution
when reaching into or under grill.

• Extinguished coals and ashes should be placed a safe distance from all structures and combustible materials.

• With a garden hose, completely wet the surface beneath and around grill to extinguish any ashes, coals or embers which may
have fallen during the cooking or cleaning pro cess.

PREPARATION FOR USE

& LIGHTING IN STRUC TIONS

PLACE THE GRILL OUTDOORS ON A HARD, LEVEL, NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE

AWAY FROM ROOF OVERHANG OR ANY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. NEVER USE ON WOODEN OR OTHER SURFACES THAT

COULD BURN. PLACE THE GRILL AWAY FROM OPEN WIN DOWS OR DOORS TO PREVENT SMOKE FROM ENTERING YOUR

HOUSE. IN WINDY WEATHER, PLACE THE GRILL IN AN OUTDOOR AREA THAT IS PRO TECT ED FROM THE WIND.

READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

BEFORE OPERATING YOUR GRILL.

Prior to your first use of the Brinkmann Barrel, follow the in struc tions
below carefully to cure your grill. Curing your grill will minimize damage to
the exterior finish as well as rid the grill of paint odor that can impart
unnatural flavors to the first meal prepared on your Brinkmann Barrel.

IMPORTANT: To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be

properly cured and covered at all times when not in use. A
cover for your Barrel may be ordered directly from
Brinkmann by calling 800-468-5252.

Step 1

Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the Barrel including cooking grills

with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray. Do not coat charcoal grates or
charcoal tray.

Step 2

Ash tray must be in place at all times.

Step 3

Follow the instructions below carefully to build a fire. You may use

charcoal and/or wood as fuel in the Barrel (see “Adding Charcoal/Wood
During Cooking” section of this manual).

WARNING: Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter

fluid. Use only a high grade plain charcoal or charcoal/wood
mixture.

If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer’s warn ings

and instructions regarding the use of their product. Start with 2 - 2 2
pounds of charcoal. This should be enough charcoal to cook with,
once the curing process has been completed. When charcoal is
burning strong, carefully place hot coals in center of charcoal grate.

WARNING: DO NOT use grill without charcoal ash tray in place. DO NOT

attempt to remove charcoal ash tray while tray contains hot
coals.

NOTE: To extend the life of your grill, make sure that hot coals and

wood do not touch the walls of grill.

IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 6

Start with 2 - 2 2 pounds of charcoal. This should be enough charcoal

to cook with once the curing process has been completed. Open the
smokestack damper halfway. When charcoal is burning strong,
carefully place the hot coals in center of charcoal grate.
