Cleaning Drip Pan

Wait for the unit to completely cool before moving any parts. The drip tray should be hand washed only in warm soapy water. Dry thoroughly when completed

6

Washing Grill / Griddle & Base

Wait for the unit to completely cool before moving. Your cooking plate and grill base (without drip pan) is dishwasher safe without the temperature controller attached. Place on the bottom rack

Using Your Electric Grill / Griddle

Place the appliance on a flat, level surface, such as a countertop or table. Place the cooking surface onto the base with either the grill or griddle surface up, according to your recipe.

Insert power point into the power point holder on the grill/griddle plate. Plug the cord into a 120 volt 60 Hz AC only outlet.

When the grill/griddle is on, the red READY light will come on. This light is in the shape of an arrow, located on the power point. When the light goes out, the grill or griddle surface is preheated to the selected temperature. This light will cycle on and off during cooking, indicating that the surface temperature is being maintained.

Important : Your grill/griddle comes with a patented safety feature which will not allow you to plug the temperature probe in unless the drip pan is properly in place. Never Try To Defeat This Feature.

Care and Cleaning

Before cleaning, be sure to unplug the cord from the outlet. Remove the power point from the cooking surface. If necessary, wipe the cord with a damp cloth.

Caution: Do not immerse the cord in water or other liquid.

Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.

The cooking plate and base can be placed in the bottom rack of the dishwasher, or washed by hand.

The drip tray should be hand washed only in warm soapy water. Dry the drip pan completety when finished.

Do not put hot cooking surface in cold water.

Be sure to always wash both the grill and griddle surfaces after each use to remove any grease that may have accumulated.

Do not use scouring pads or harsh cleaners on either the cooking surface or base.

If necessary, use a nylon bristle brush or plastic scrubbing pad.

Do not let the cooking surface or base soak overnight. This could damage the nonstick coating.

Grilling Tips

1 The nonstick cooking surface is metal utensil safe. However care should be taken when using metal utensils with this product. Only use the enclosed scaper to clean the griddle

2 Be careful not to transfer germs from raw meat to cooked meat. Use separate utensils and platters for raw and cooked meat or wash platter used for raw meat before placing cooked meat on it.

3 Use a long-handled brush for basting foods during grilling.

4 Tender meat cuts, such as sirloin and tenderloin, are generally more suitable for grilling than less-tender meat cuts, such as round or rump.

5 Many less-tender meat cuts can be grilled, but they benefit from the tenderizing effects of marinating in an acid-based wet marinade.

6 A marinade is a seasoned mixture (wet or dry) in which foods are soaked in order to absorb flavor and/or become more tender. The flavor grows stronger the longer the marinade is left on the food before cooking. The amount of time usually ranges from 1 hour to 24 hours.

A wet marinade usually consists of oil (vegetable or olive) to give moisture, an acid (lemon juice, vinegar, wine, tomatoes or yogurt) to tenderize, and flavorings (herbs and spices) to enhance or add flavor.

A dry marinade, or spice rub, is a mixture of herbs, spices and salt that is rubbed onto the food after the food has been lightly brushed with vegetable oil. Generally, use 1 to 2 tablespoons dry marinade per pound of meat.

7 Always marinate in a tightly covered nonmetal dish, and turn the food occasionally. Be sure to refrigerate all meats while marinating. Heavy plastic bags are also convenient for marinating – add the food and marinade, then tightly seal the bag. Turn the bag now and then to redistribute the marinade.

8 If leftover wet marinade is to be used as a sauce with the cooked food, be sure to place it in a small pan and heat it to a rolling boil before serving to eliminate any bacterial growth.

9 Grease from high fat foods, such as bacon or sausage, may splatter on countertop. Protect countertop as necessary.

10 When grilling fish, use a large flat spatula or turner to turn the fish.

8

Grilling Guide

Follow these guidelines for successful grilling:

1 Set the temperature control dial to the desired temperature. Preheat the grill until the READY arrow light goes out, approximately 10 minutes.

2 Marinate meats before grilling for extra flavor and tenderness, if desired.

(Marinades with added sugar will cause meats to brown more quickly.)

3 Before grilling, partially cook bone-in chicken, ribs and uncooked smoked or fresh sausages for best results. If not partially cooked, these meats may become overbrowned on the outside before the center is done.

4 Turn food once during grilling unless otherwise directed.

5 If desired, brush with barbecue or other sauce during last 5 to 10 minutes of grilling.

6 Unplug from outlet and allow grill to cool completely before disposing of drippings that have accumulated in the drip channel.

Quick and Easy Kabobs

Sensational, succulent kabobs are quick and as easy as 1 - 2 - 3 to make! Use these tips and charts to get started, then let your palate be your guide. Here’s how:

Choose meat, vegetable and brush-on sauce from Guide to Great Kabobs (page

12). Thread meat and vegetables on bamboo or metal skewers. Grill, turning and brushing occasionally with sauce, until meat and vegetables are done. Use the

Grilling Kabobs chart (page 12) as a guide. Grill tasty kabobs in no time!

Kabob Success Tips

• Soak bamboo skewers in water at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

• Leave a little space between foods threaded on skewers

(tightly packed food will not cook evenly).

• To prevent sticking (and to make cleanup easier), brush cooking surface with vegetable oil before grilling.

• Sauces that contain sugar burn easily. Brush them on kabobs only during last

5 to 10 minutes of grilling.

• To avoid food-borne illnesses caused by eating undercooked or raw meat, boil the sauce you’ve dipped your basting brush into before serving with cooked kabobs.

Griddle Cooking Guide

Follow these guidelines for successful griddle cooking:

1 If you prefer cooking foods without added butter or oil, first season the griddle surface to prevent any sticking. Season the griddle surface after each cleaning or before initial use. To season, brush the cool surface with a light coating of vegetable oil. Wait a few minutes; then wipe the surface dry with a paper towel. The griddle is now seasoned and ready for use.

2 Set the temperature control dial to the desired temperature. Preheat the griddle until the READY arrow light goes out, approximately 10 minutes.

3 When cooking with butter or oil, place on cold griddle before preheating.

Do not use more than 2 tablespoons of butter or oil.

4 Foods may be kept warm on the griddle prior to serving. Reduce temperature to 200°.
