VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve

Correct burner-to-valveengagement
Indirect Cooking
Poultry and large cuts of meat cook slowly to perfection on the
grill by indirect heat. Placefood over unlit burner(s); the heat
from lit burners circulates gentlythroughout the grill, cooking
meat or poultry without the touch of adirect 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.
1 Burner Cooking
Cook with direct or indirect heat.
Best for smaller meals or foods.
Consumes less fuel.
Food Safety
Food safety is a veryimportant part of enjoying the outdoor
cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria,
follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy
water before and after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat
foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and
utensilswhen removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cookmeat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Usea
thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline
at 1-800-535-4555 (In Washington, DC (202) 720-3333, 10:00
am-4:00 pm EST).
How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly
• Meat and poultry cooked on agrill often browns very fast on
the outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has
reached a safeinternal temperature, and cut into food to
check for visual signs of aloneness.
•Whole poultry should reach 180° F; breasts, 170° F. Juices
should run clear and flesh should not be pink.
• Hamburgers madeof 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 completelyto destroy harmful bacteria.
•When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot
dogs, grill to 165° F,or until steaming hot.
Indirect Cooking Instructions
• 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.
• Place food over unlit burner(s)
