PREPARING TO USE YOUR SANTA FE GRILL
Before cooking with your Santa Fe Grill, the following steps should be closely followed to both cure the finish
3
and season the interior steel. Failure to properly follow these steps may damage the finish and/or impart
metallic flavors to your first foods.
1. Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.
2. Build a small fire on the ash pan, being sure not to lay coals against the walls.
3. Close lid. Position butterflies at approximately one quarter open. This burn should be sustained for at least
two hours. Begin increasing temperature by opening the butterflies halfway and adding more charcoal. Your
Santa Fe Grill is now ready for use.
Rust can appear on the inside of your grill. Maintaining a light coat of vegetable oil on interior surfaces will aid
In the protection of your grill. Exterior surfaces of the grill may need occasional touch up. We recommend the
Use of commercially available black high temperature spray paint. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE
UNIT!
Charcoal is recommended, however wood or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for grilling,
With the fuel source placed and ignited on the ash pan. Do not build too large of a fire. We recommend starting
a fire with no more than 4 pounds of charcoal (approximately 60 briquets) and adding more as needed during
cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, place the cooking grill in the unit. Failure to read and follow
instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and or property damage.
Frequency of clean up is determined by how often the grill is used. Make sure coals are completely
extinguished before cleaning inside of unit. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before using again.
GRILLING
Wipe out the interior of unit with cloth or paper towel.
GRILL MAINTENANCE
When finished cooking, and the unit has adequately cooled, clean out all remaining ashes. Ashes collect moisture, which can lead to
premature rusting and decay. Periodically coating the interior surfaces with vegetable oil will aid in the protection of your unit. Also,
occasional touch up of the exterior paint will be required. Black, high-temperature spray paint is recommended. Never paint the interior
of the unit.
Cooking Surface: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking
surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.
