valve stem  
Sear burner flame characteristics:  
The flames of the grill burners and surface burners (not used on  
all models) should be blue and stable with no excessive noise or  
lifting (L.P./propane gas flames will have a slightly yellow tip). A  
yellow flame indicates not enough air. If flame is noisy or lifts  
away from the burner, there is too much air. Some yellow tips on  
fl ames when the burner is set to HI setting are acceptable as long  
as no carbon or soot deposits appear.  
8. Replace the control knob and turn off the burner.  
9. Repeat Steps 3 through 8 for each burner if needed.  
10. Replace the sear plates and grates after the burners have  
cooled.  
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt, debris, insect nests,  
etc. and clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters  
as needed.  
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting air shutters, let burners cool down.  
Adjusting the air shutters:

OUTDOOR GRILLING TIPS  
WARNING  
Food Poisoning Hazard  
Lighting the rotisserie burner  
1. Do not lean over the grill.  
Do not let food sit on grill for more than one hour  
before or after cooking.  
2. Push in the rotisserie burner knob and turn the knob to  
“LITE/HI”.You will hear the “snapping” sound of the spark.  
3. When the rotisserie burner lights, continue to hold the knob in  
for another 10 seconds, then release the knob and burner will

knob is released.  
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.  
Before Grilling  
IMPORTANT: If the rotisserie burner does not light immediately,  
turn the burner knob to “OFF”, wait 5 minutes before relighting.  
• Thaw food items before grilling.  
• Preheat grill on high (use all grill burners) 7-10 minutes. The  
hood must be closed during preheating. Do not use back  
rotisserie burner for preheating. Preheating provides the high  
heat needed to brown and seal the juices.  
Manually lighting the rotisserie burner  
• Shorten the preheat time when grilling high-fat cuts of meat or  
poultry, such as chicken thighs. This will help reduce flare-ups.  
• Lightly oil the grill or the food when cooking low-fat cuts of meat,  
fi sh or poultry, such as lean hamburger patties, shrimp or  
skinless chicken breasts.  
1. Do not lean over the grill  
2. Remove the manual lighting extension from inside the drip tray.  
3. Attach a match to the clip.  
Too much oil can cause gray ash to deposit on food.  
Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking to prevent flare-ups.  
• Make vertical cuts at 2” intervals around the fat edge of meat to  
help prevent the meat from curling while cooking.  
4. Strike the match to light it.  
5. Gently hold the lit match close to the rotisserie burner.  
6. Push in and turn the rotisserie burner control knob to “LITE/HI”.  
Hold this knob in for 10 seconds after the burner is lit.You will  
hear the “snapping” sound of the spark until after the knob is  
released.  
• Add seasoning or salt only after the cooking is finished.  
During Grilling  
Turn foods only once. Juices are lost when meat is turned  
several times.  
Turn meat just when juices begin to appear on the surface.  
• Avoid puncturing or cutting the meats to test doneness. This  
allows juices to escape.  
IMPORTANT: If the rotisserie burner does not light immediately,  
turn the rotisserie burner control knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes  
before relighting.  
light  
• It may be necessary to lower the heat setting for foods that cook  
a long time or are marinated or basted in a sugary sauce.  
• If using a high flame, add barbecue sauce only during the last 10  
minutes of cooking to avoid burning the sauce.  
• The degree of doneness is influenced by the type of meat, cut of  
meat (i.e. size, shape and thickness), heat setting selected, and  
length of time on the grill.  
• With the grill cover open the cooking time will be longer.  
7. Remove the match and replace the manual lighting extension  
inside the drip tray.  
Using the grill light (on some models)  
1. The power transformer must be plugged in per the instructions  
in the “Plug in Grill Light” section.  
2. Press the light button on the control panel to turn “on” or “off.”

Cooking Methods  
For optimal use of the Sure SearTM system, the following cooking  
methods are recommended.  
Direct Heat  
Cooking by Direct Heat means the food is placed on grill grates  
directly above lighted burners. Hood position affects total cooking  
time.  
Direct Heat sears the food. Searing is a process that seals natural  
juices in food by cooking with intense heat for a short period of  
time. While juices stay inside, the outside is browned with a  
fl avorful grilled coating.  
Indirect Heat  
For best results, do not select the Indirect Heat cooking method  
when it is windy.  
Cooking by Indirect Heat means the food is placed on the grill  
grate above an unheated burner, allowing heat from lighted  
burner(s) on either side to cook the food.  
If possible, turn on two burners. Cook with the hood down. This  
will shorten the cooking time.  
Indirect Cooking  
Place food only on the grill grate over the OFF burners.

Trussing Poultry for the Rotisserie  
Rotisserie Cooking Tips  
(Rotisserie available on some models)  
1. Load the spit rod by sliding one of the forks on the rod, with the  
prongs facing away from the rod handle. Tighten the screw to  
keep it from slipping.  
2. Push the rod through the center of the bird.  
3. Cut 24of kitchen twine and center it under the bird, breast  
side up.  
4. Wrap each end of the twine around the wings; catch each wing  
tip. Bring the twine tightly together at the top of the breast and  
knot. Do not cut off the extra twine.  
WARNING  
Food Poisoning Hazard  
Do not let food sit on rotisserie for more than one hour  
before or after cooking.  
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.  
5. Cut another 20 inches of string and lay it under the back of the  
bird. Wrap it around the tail then around the spit rod, cinching  
tightly.  
6. Cross the legs on top of spit rod; tie twine around the crossed  
legs.  
7. Connect the twine holding the legs to the twine holding the  
wings and knot. Cut off any bits of hanging twine.  
8. Slide the second fork pushing the tines into the drumsticks.  
9. Center the food and forks on the rod and tighten the thumb-  
screws. The bird should not rotate or be loose in any way.  
Rotisserie cooking rotates food in front of the rotisserie burner,  
creating an intense heat for searing the outside and sealing in  
natural juices.  
• The rotisserie burner reaches cooking temperatures in about one  
minute. Do not preheat when using the rotisserie.  
• Select tender meat and poultry.  
• Allow at least 1 inch space between rotisserie burner and the  
food.  
To make cleanup easier, place a pan under the food to catch  
drippings.  
• The cover can be opened or closed, but when using the rotis-  
serie with the smoker the cover should be closed.  
• Add barbecue sauce or glaze only during the last 10 minutes of  
cooking to prevent sauce from burning.  
Rotisserie Chart  
• Use a portable meat thermometer to check internal doneness of the item.  
Turn off rotisserie burner when meat thermometer reads 5°F lower than desired  
internal temperature. Continue rotating, hood closed, for 10 minutes before carving.
