PREPARING TO USE YOUR LONGHORN GRILL/SMOKER

Before cooking with your Grill, the following steps should be closely followed to both cure the finish
and season the interior steel. Failure to properly follow these steps may damage the finish and/or impart
metallic flavors to your first foods.

1. Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.

2. Build a small fire on the fire grate , being sure not to lay coals against the walls.

3. Close lid. Position butterflies at approximately one quarter open. This burn should be sustained for at least

two hours. Begin increasing temperature by opening the butterflies halfway and adding more charcoal. Your
Santa Fe Grill is now ready for use.

Rust can appear on the inside of your grill. Maintaining a light coat of vegetable oil on interior surfaces will aid
In the protection of your grill. Exterior surfaces of the grill may need occasional touch up. We recommend the
Use of commercially available black high temperature spray paint. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE
UNIT!

GRILLING

Charcoal is recommended, however wood or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for grilling,
With the fuel source placed and ignited on the ash pan. Do not build too large of a fire. We recommend starting
a fire with no more than 4 pounds of charcoal (approximately 60 briquets) and adding more as needed during
cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, place the cooking grill in the unit. Failure to read and follow
instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and or property damage.

GRILL MAINTENANCE

Frequency of clean up is determined by how often the grill is used. Make sure coals are completely
extinguished before cleaning inside of unit. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before using again.
Wipe out the interior of unit with cloth or paper towel.

When finished cooking, and the unit has adequately cooled, clean out all remaining ashes. Ashes collect moisture, which can lead to
premature rusting and decay. Periodically coating the interior surfaces with vegetable oil will aid in the protection of your unit. Also,
occasional touch up of the exterior paint will be required. Black, high-temperature spray paint is recommended. Never paint the interior
of the unit.

Cooking Surface: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking
surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

WARNING

Always open lid BEFORE opening the ash door to
check fire or fuel.

Always open the ash door slowly. Never attempt to
look inside the grill while opening the ash door when
the grill is in use.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in
injury.

Unburned gas can accumulate and cause a flash fire
if the lid is not opened first.

• Most surfaces on this unit are hot when in use.
Use extreme caution. Keep others away from
unit. Always wear protective clothing to prevent
injury.

• Keep children and pets away.

• Do not move this unit during operation.

• Never substitute gasoline, kerosene or alcohol
for charcoal starter. In some states, the use of
charcoal starter is prohibited by law. In this
case, paraffin-based starter cubes can be
substituted for charcoal starter. Never use
charcoal starter fluid with an electric starter.

COOKING TIPS

Building Your Fire

1.) Stack charcoal briquettes or wood into a pyramid-shaped pile on top of the charcoal grate
or ash pan. We recommend using 4 pounds (approximately 50 - 60 briquettes) to start your
fire, adding more as needed.

2.) If using lighter fluid, saturate the charcoal briquettes with lighter fluid and let it soak in for
approximately 5 minutes. If using a chimney starter, electric starter, or other type of fire
starter, light your fire according to the manufacturer's instructions.

3.) After allowing the lighter fluid to properly soak in, light the pile of briquettes in several
locations to ensure an even burn. Always light the fire with the grill lid open.

Leave lid open until briquettes are fully lit. Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal

lighter fluid in grill and may result in a flash fire when lid is opened.

4.) Never add charcoal lighter fluid to hot or warm coals as flashbacks may occur causing
injury.

5.) You are ready to begin cooking when the pile of briquettes ashes over and produces a red

glow (approximately 12 – 15 minutes).

6.) Depending on your cooking method, either leave the briquettes in a pile or spread evenly

across the charcoal grate using a long-handled poker.

*Always use caution when handling hot coals to prevent injury.

Know When Your Fire is Ready

Successful charcoal grilling depends on a good fire. The general rule for knowing when your coals
are ready for grilling is to make sure that 80 percent or more of the coals are ashy gray. If you
have less than that, the coals are not ready, and if all of them are glowing red hot, the fire is
probably too hot. Here are a few steps you can take to adjust the temperature of your fire:

- If it is too hot, spread the coals out a bit more, which makes the fire less intense.

- Raise or lower the adjustable charcoal grate.

- Partially close the vents in the grill, which reduces the amount of oxygen that feeds the fire.

- Use the indirect grilling method, with coals to either side of a drip pan and the food over the

pan rather than directly over the coals.

- In the event of a severe flare-up, spray the flames with water from a squirt bottle. Be

careful, spraying with water tends to blow ashes around and make a mess.

- Add briquettes 2 or 3 at a time to increase the burn time. Allow 10 minutes for coals to ash

over before adding more.
