Lighting Instructions
We recommend using Lump Charcoal because it contains no additives or llers. This makes for more
efcient burning, less ash and better tasting food than charcoal briquettes.
1. To start a charcoal re, stack 3 lbs of Lump Charcoal (50-60 briquettes) into a pyramid in the center
of the re grate.
2. Light coals in several places. Fire starters are helpful during this step.
NOTE: Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Use of any of these or similar
products could cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily injury.
3. Leave lid open until coals are ignited and smoke burns white with no ames.
4. After coals are lit but before they turn white, start regulating internal dome temp with dampers.
(Or, if you wish, begin grilling.)
MORE AIR FLOW MEANS MORE HEAT.
Refer to the chart above to help control the temperature in your AKORN grill.
NOTE: Do not let temperature go higher than desired temp because it is harder to bring temperature
down than to go up.
ALWAYS FOLLOW CHARCOAL AND LIGHTER FLUID MANUFACTURERS’
INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS. USE OUTDOORS ONLY ON NONCOMBUSTIBLE
SURFACE – 15’ AWAY FROM WOOD AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL.
Grill Operation & Tips
• Control heat with amount and type of fuel, Dual dampers, and (optional) adjustable re grate. Wood
burns hotter than coals and more airow equals more heat.
• Add water soaked hardwood chips for a smoked avor.
• Ashes left in bottom too long hold moisture and will rust through any thickness of steel. This grill is
made of steel and cast iron, which WILL RUST, ESPECIALLY IF NOT PROPERLY CARED FOR.
• Do not use self-starting charcoal as it will give unnatural avor. Burn lighter uid completely before
closing lid.
• After each use, coat vegetable oil on the interior grates to reduce rust
