GENERAL FOOD SAFETY

Read and follow this advice when cooking on your ceramic charcoal
barbecue:
• Do not cook until the fuel has a coating of ash.
• Before cooking, ensure grill surfaces and tools are clean and free
of old food residues.
• Always wash your hands before and after handling uncooked
meat, and before eating.
• Do not use the same utensils to handle cooked and uncooked
foods. Always keep raw meat away from cooked meat, and
other foods.
• Ensure all meat is cooked thoroughly before eating.
CAUTION: Eating raw or undercooked meat can cause food poisoning
(e.g. bacteria strains such as E.coli). To reduce the risk of undercooked
meat, cut open to ensure it is cooked all the way through.
CAUTION: If the meat has been cooked sufficiently, the meat juice
should be clear and there should be no traces of pink/red juice,
or meat colouring. Pre-cooking larger pieces of meat and cuts is
recommended before finally cooking on your grill.
After cooking on your ceramic charcoal barbecue, always clean the
grill cooking surfaces and utensils.

SMOKING

Always follow the Cooking Temperature Guide in this instruction
manual. Always use heat-resistant gloves when handling hot ceramics
or cooking surfaces. See Cooking Temperature Guide.
1. Light the lump charcoal according to the lighting instructions in
this manual. Do not move or stoke the coals once lit.
2. Open the bottom vent fully and leave the lid open for about 10
minutes to build a small bed of hot embers.
3. Monitor the ceramic charcoal barbecue until it has risen to the
desired temperature.
4. Leave the bottom vent slightly open. Close the top vent and
continue to check the temperature for a few more minutes.
5. Using heat-resistant gloves, sprinkle the wood chips in a circle
over the hot charcoal. Always use heat-resistant gloves when
handling hot ceramics or cooking surfaces.
You are now ready to use the ceramic charcoal barbecue to smoke on.
TIP! Soak wood chips or cooking planks in water for 15 minutes to
prolong the smoking process.
IMPORTANT: When opening the lid at high temperatures, it is
essential to lift the lid only slightly at first, allowing air to enter
slowly and safely, preventing any back-draft or flare-ups that may
cause injury.
