[. . . ] Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired doneness. The control knob may be set to any position between "HI"and "LO"- most grilling is between "MED" and "LO" . Allow grill to cool and clean the grates, drip pan and grease tray after each use. Note: If using LP gas, your preheat time may be shorter than recommended. To prevent overcooking or burning you may want to lower heat settings. GRILLING HINTS: The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium, or well done, is affected to a large degree by the thickness of the cut. Expert chefs say it is impossible to have a rare doneness with a thin cut of meat. The cooking time is affected by the kind of meat, the size and shape of the cut, the temperature of the meat when cooking begins, and the degree of doneness desired. When defrosting meats it is recommended that it be done overnight in the refrigerator as opposed to a microwave. This in general yields a juicier cut of meat. Use a spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat, as a spatula will not puncture the meat and let the juices run out. To get the juiciest meats, add seasoning or salt after the cooking is finished and turn the meat only once (juices are lost when the meat is turned several times). Turn the meat just after the juices begin to bubble to the surface. Trim any excess fat from the meat before cooking. To prevent steaks or chops from curling during cooking, slit the fat around the edges at 2-inch intervals. 16 USING THE GRILL/LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS Grilling Method Note: Indirect cooking method is a popular alternative to direct heat grilling. Indirect cooking uses heat from adjacent burners to cook food and in many cases, reduces the possibility of overcooked or overly browned food. Foods most appropriate for indirect grilling included breads, thicker pieces of chicken or steaks. Direct Heat Grilling (Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, Typical Thickness Steaks/Chicken) Indirect Heat Grilling HEAT HEAT Food Grill Rack Burner HEAT HEAT HEAT Burner Off TO LIGHT THE GRILL BURNER: NOTE: Open the grill lid and/or remove the top grate cover before lighting. If you smell gas, shut-off gas supply and call for service. Push and hold the ignition button, turn the selected burner knob to "HI" If burner does not light in 4 . to 5 seconds, turn knob "OFF" and wait 5 minutes before trying again for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Match Lighting: If the burner will not light after several attempts then the burner can be match lit. If you've just attempted to light the burner with the ignition, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Keep your face as far away from the grill as possible and hold and pass a lit, long stem match over the hole located on the top left for burner on the left, or the right hole for the right burner (Fig. 17). Push and turn the control knob which is centered on the burner where the lit match is located, to "HI".
