PLEASE NOTE: NO RETURNS ON USED GRILLS Read all safety warnings and instructions carefully Before assembling and operating your grill. Cure GRILL prior to your initial use to protect the interior and exterior finish and to prevent unnatural flavors to your first meals.

GRILLING RECIPES DIRECT METHOD STEAK (& ALL MEATS): Cook food directly above coals/heat. Generally speaking, to grill meats, raise fire grate to high position (hot) and sear for one minute on each side with the lid open to seal in flavor and juices. Then lower fire grate to medium position with lid closed and cook to desire doneness. Control heat with dual dampers and adjustable fire grate.
KABOBS: Alternating on skewers any combination of meat, onions, tomatoes, green peppers, mushrooms, zucchini, circular slice of corn-on-the-cob, or pineapple. Meat could consist of chunks of shrimp, scallops, lobster, chicken, sausage, pork, beef, etc. Marinate the meat in refrigerator for several hours. Grill each side approximately 7 minutes turning occasionally while basting with marinade. Leave a small amount of room between pieces in order to cook faster.
SMOKIN’ RECIPES: using the Charcoal Grill side of the Duo with a WATER PAN (also called INDIRECT METHOD). Pan not included. Disposable bread pan is recommended. SMOKE BY COOKING SLOWLY (See chart on page 27 for smoking times). 1) Place water/drip pan on left side of fire grate. 2) Place hot coals on right side (damper end) of fire grate. The charcoal basket accessory helps confine coals to one side. 3) Place meat above water pan. 4) Place fire grate in low position.
SMOKED HOT DOGS STUFFED: Slit hot dogs lengthwise, within 1/4 inch of each end. Stuff hot dogs with cheese and relish and wrap in bacon. Place on cooking grid over drip pan and smoke 15-20 minutes or until bacon is crisp. SMOKED CHICKEN PARTS AND HALVES: Rinse pieces in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Brush each piece with vegetable oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Brown pieces directly above coals with lid open and grate in high or medium position for several minutes.
CHICKEN MARINADE: Combine 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon sweet basil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder with parsley, 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pour over chicken pieces in nonmetal dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally. Use marinade to baste chicken while cooking.
