Performance Tips Preheating It is important to allow your grill to preheat and achieve your desired cooking temperature before cooking. This allows the entire grill to heat up and quickly return to your desired temperature once your food is introduced. If you do not allow the grill to preheat, you will find that it takes a longer period of time to bring both the grill and the food to your desired cooking temperature.
• Always keep your cooking area clean. Avoid lifting the grill lid • Wind can cool your grill temperature. • Always preheat grill to desired temperature before use. • Wipe off steel surfaces before preheating; dirt and food stains can cook into surface. • Always check pellet hopper for debris and remove excess pellet dust as needed. (A shopvac is the preferred method) • Leave at least one inch of clearance between food for even cooks.
Maintenance & Cleaning Follow these simple steps to maintain your Lifesmart Pellet Grill • Clean your fire pot every 3-5 cooks to ensure proper airflow. • Use a grill brush to clean your cooking grate after every cook to provide years of trouble free use from them. NOTE: Make sure that no bristles have shed and remain on cooking grate. • Cover your drip tray with aluminum foil and change it frequently. This is the simplest way to maintain your drip pan.
