ProperPlacementand Clearance of Grill

Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed,

breezeway or any other enclosed area. Your gas grill is

to be used outdoors only, at least 24 inches from the

back and side of any combustible surface. Your

gas grill should not be placed under any surface

that will burn. Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation

air around the gas grill housing.

This outdoor gas grill is not intended to be installed in

or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.

• Never connect an unregulated LP gas tank to

your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly

supplied with your gas grill is adjusted to have

an outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.)

for connection to an LP gas tank.

• Only use the regulator and hose assembly

supplied with your gas grill. Replacement

regulators and hose assemblies must be those

specified by Sears.

• Have your LP gas tank filled by a reputable

propane gas dealer and visually inspected and

re-qualified at each filling.

• Never fill the gas tank beyond 80% full.

Have your propane gas dealer check the

release valve after every filling to ensure that it

remains free of defects.

• Always keep LP gas tanks in upright position.

Do not store (or use) gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this gas grill.

• LP gas tanks not connected for use must NOT be

stored on bottom shelf or in the vicinity of this or

any other gas grill.

• Do not subject the LP gas tank to excessive heat.

• Never store an LP gas tank indoors, tf you

store your gas grill in the garage or other indoor

location, always disconnect the LP gas tank

first and store it safely outside.

• LP gas tanks must be stored outdoors in a

well-ventilated area and out of the reach of

children. Disconnected LP gas tanks must not

be stored in a building, garage or any other

enclosed area.

• When your gas grill is not in use the gas

must be turned off at the LP gas tank.

• The regulator and hose assembly must be

inspected before each use of the grill. If there

is excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is

cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being

used again.

• Keep the gas regulator hose away from hot

grill surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unnec-

essary twisting of hose. Visually inspect hose

prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive

wear or other damage. If the hose appears

damaged do not use the gas grill. Call Sears

at 1-800-366-PART (1-800-366-7278) for a Sears

authorized replacement hose.

• Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or

before checking to ensure the burner tubes are

fully seated over the gas valve orifices.

• Never allow children to operate your grill. Do

not allow children to play near your grill.

, WARNING

A strong gas smell, or the hissing sound of

gas indicates a serious problem with your

gas grill or the LP gas tank. Failure to

immediately follow the steps listed below

could result in a fire or explosion that could

cause serious bodily injury, death, or prop-

erty damage.

• Shut off gas supply to the gas grill.

• Turn the Control Knobs to OFF position.

• Put out any flame with a Class B fire

extinguisher.

• Open the Grill Lid.

• Get away from the LP gas tank.

• Do not try to fix the problem yourself.

• If odor continues or you have a fire you

cannot extinguish, call your fire

department. Do not call near the LP gas

tank because your telephone is an electri-

cal device and could create a spark

resulting in fire and/or explosion.

NOTE: The normal flow of gas through the

regulator and hose assembly can create a

humming noise. A low volume of noise is

perfectly normal and will not interfere with

operation of the grill. If humming noise is

loud and excessive you may need to purge

air from the gas line or reset the regulator

excess gas flow device. This purging proce-

dure should be done every time a new LP

gas tank is connected to your grill. For help

with this procedure refer to page 14, step 4,

or call the Grill Information Center for

assistance, 8am - 8pro CST, Monday

through Friday 1-888-317-7642.

To reduce the chance of "FLASHBACK" (see

CAUTION at right) clean the Burner Tubes and

Burners before fully assembling your grill.

Remove the Cotter Pin from the rear underside

of each Burner using a pair of long nose pliers.

Carefully lift each Burner up and away from the

Gas Valve Orifice, then refer to Figure 1 and

perform one of these three cleaning methods:

Bend a stiff wire, (a lightweight coat hanger

works well) into a small hook as shown

below. Run the hook through the Burner Tube

and inside the Burner several times to remove

any debris.

Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.

Run the brush through the Burner Tube and

inside the Burner several times, removing any

debris.

Use an air hose to force air through each

Burner Tube. The forced air should pass

debris or obstructions through the Burner and

out the Ports.

Electrode Check - Requires an Assistant

Before placing the cooking components into your

grill, ensure that the Spark Electrode Tip is properly

positioned within each Gas Collector Box (a

3-1/4" wide stainless mechanism found at the front

between each set of Burners.) The easiest way to

ensure this is to perform this Electrode Check:

1. Be sure all Control Knobs are set to "OFF"

and open the Grill Lid.

2. Have an assistant stand behind to the right of

the grill and look down at each Gas Collector

Box. NEVER put your face inside Grill Head.

3. Press the Ignitor Cap. You should hear a

"clicking" sound and your assistant should see

a small blue spark within each Gas Collector

Box. tf a spark is present the Electrode Tips

are properly positioned.

4. If no spark is seen the Spark Gap shown in

Fig. 9 needs to be adjusted as follows:

Using an adjustable wrench, loosen the Inside Nut

just until the Gas Collector Box can be maneuvered

and turned upward.

The gap between the Spark Electrode Tip and

Spark receiver should be approximately 3/16".

If the gap iswider than 3/16" use a pair of long nose

pliers and gently squeeze the Gas Collector Box

until the gap is correct.

Return the Gas Collector Box to its original

horizontal position, secure the Inside Nut and try

the Electrode Check again.

If no "clicking" sound is heard check the

following common causes. If you need

assistance call the Grill Information Center

at 1-888-317-7642.

and Burner Ports for any obstructions.

3. Perform gas leak check according to

instructions found on page 13 of this

manual.

Z WARNING

A strong gas smell, or the hissing sound of

gas indicates a serious problem with your

gas grill or the LP gas tank. Failure to

immediately follow the steps listed below

could result in a fire or explosion that could

cause serious bodily injury, death, or prop-

erty damage.

• Shut off gas supply to the gas grill.

• Turn the Control Knobs to OFF position.

• Put out any flame with a Class B fire

extinguisher.

• Open the Grill Lid.

• Get away from the LP gas tank.

• Do not try to fix the problem yourself.

• If odor continues or you have a fire you

cannot extinguish, call your fire depart-

ment. Do not call near the LP gas tank

because your telephone is an electrical

device and could create a spark resulting in

fire and/or explosion.

NOTE: The normal flow of gas through the

regulator and hose assembly can create a

humming noise. A low volume of noise is

perfectly normal and will not interfere with

operation of the grill. If humming noise is

loud and excessive you may need to purge

air from the gas line or reset the regulator

excess gas flow device. This purging proce-

dure should be done every time a new LP

gas tank is connected to your grill. For help

with this procedure refer to page 14, step 4,

or call the Grill Information Center.

Checking For LP Gas Leaks

Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to first

use, at the beginning of each season, or every

time your LP gas tank is changed, you must

check for gas leaks. Follow these four steps:

1. Make a soap solution by mixing one part

liquid detergent and one part water.

2. Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF

position, then turn the gas ON at source.

3. Apply the soap solution to all gas

connections. If bubbles appear in the soap

solution the connections are not properly

sealed. Check each fitting and tighten or

repair as necessary.

4. If you have a gas leak that you cannot

repair, turn off the gas at the source, discon-

nect fuel line from your grill and call

1-800-4-MY-HOME b or your gas supplier for

• Misalignment of BurnerTubes over Orifices

Correction: Reposition Burner Tubes over

Orifices.

Misalignment of Ignitor on Burner

Correction: Check for proper position of the

Electrode Tip as shown in Figure 9. The gap

between the Spark Electrode Tip and Spark

Receiver should be approximately 3/16". Adjust

if necessary. With the gas supply closed and all

Control Knobs set to OFF press the Electric

Ignitor cap and check for the presence of a

spark at the Electrode.

Disconnected Ignition Wires

Correction: Inspect the Ignitor Junction Box

found behind the Control Panel. Connect loose

Ignitor wires to Junction Box and try to light the

grill.

• Weak AA battery

Correction: Unscrewthe Ignitor Cap and replace

the battery.

If the grill still does not light you may need

to purge air from the gas line or reset the

regulator excess gas flow device. Note: This

procedure should be done every time a new

LP gas tank is connected to your grill.

To purge air from your gas line and/or

reset the regulator excess gas flow device:

• Turn Control Knobs to the OFF position.

• Turn off the gas at the tank valve.

• Disconnect regulator from LP gas tank.

Cleaningthe Cooking Grids

Before initial use and as needed, wash Cooking Grids

with a mild detergent and rinse with hot water. For

stubborn food residue use a degreaser and fiber or

brass cleaning brush. Dry immediately using a soft

cloth or paper towels.

CAUTION: Never clean your grill unless you are

sure it is cool to the touch.

Cleaning the Flame Tamers

To reduce the chance of flare-ups, Flame Tamers

should be cleaned whenever food or grease drippings

accumulate. Wash Flame Tamers with a mild deter-

gent and rinse with hot water. Dry the Flame Tamers

thoroughly before you reinstall them into the grill bowl.

To remove stubborn food residue use a degreaser and

fiber or brass cleaning brush.

Cleaning the Grease Draining Tray, Heat Shield

and Grease Receptacle

To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Draining Tray,

Heat Shield and Grease Receptacle should be in-

spected before each grill use. Remove grease

(a plastic spatula works well) and wash all parts with a

mild soap and warm water solution.

Cleaning Exterior Surfaces

Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we

suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap and

warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or

sponge for this process. Do not use a stiff wire or

brass brush that might remove paint during the clean-

ing process.

Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and

free from combustible materials, gasoline and other

flammable vapors and liquids.

Cleaning the Grill Interior

Burning-off the grill after every cookout will keep it

ready for instant use. However, once a year you should

give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to keep it in top

operating condition. Follow these steps:

1. Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.

2. Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.

Detach the LP gas hose and regulator assembly from

your gas grill. Use a 7/8" open end wrench turning the

fitting counter-clockwise. Inspect for any damage

and replace as neccessary with Sears replacement

part number found on the Parts List.

4. Remove and clean the Flame Tamers, Cooking

Grids, Cooking Rack and Grill Burners.

5. Cover each Gas Valve Orifice with aluminum foil.

Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber

or brass cleaning brush, and wash with a mild

soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly

and let dry.

7. Remove aluminum foil from Orifices and check

each Orifice for obstruction.

8. Check each Spark Electrode, adjusting as needed.

The space between the Spark Electrode Tip and

Spark Receiver should be approximately 3/16".

9. Replace the Burners and adjust the Gas Collector

Box. The edge of the collector box should be

overlapping the Burner Port.

10. Replace Flame Tamers and the Cooking Grids.

11. Reconnect the gas source and observe the Burner

flame for correct operation.

Cleaning The Burner Tubes and Burner Ports

To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK the procedure

below should be followed at least once a month in late

summer or early fall when spiders are most active or

when your grill has not been used for a period of time.

1. Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.

2. Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.

3. Detach the LP gas regulator assembly from your

gas grill.

4. Remove the Cooking Grids, Flame Tamers, and

Grease Trays from your grill.

5. Remove the Cotter Pin from the rear underside of

each Burner using a pair of long nose pliers.

6. Carefully lift each Burner up and awayfrom the

Gas Valve Orifice.

7. Refer to Fig. 1 and perform one of these

three cleaning methods:

Bend a stiff wire, (a lightweight coat hanger

works well) into a small hook as shown

below. Run the hook through the Burner

Tube and inside the Burner several times

to remove any debris.

Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.

Run the brush through the Burner Tube

and inside the Burner several times, remov-

ing any debris.

Use an air hose to force air through each

Burner Tube. The forced air should pass

debris or obstructions through the Burner

and out the Ports.

Regardless of which Burner cleaning procedure you

use, we recommend you also complete the following

steps to help prolong Burner life.

1. Use a fiber pad or nylon brush to clean the entire

outer surface of each Burner until free of food

residue and dirt.

2. Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire, such as

an open paper clip.

Inspect each Burner for damage (cracks or holes)

and if such damage is found, order and enstall a

new Burner. After installation, check to ensure

that the Gas Valve Orifices are correctly placed

inside the ends of the Burner Tubes. Also check

the position of your Spark Electrode.

Z WARNING

The location of the Burner Tube with respect

to the Orifice is vital for safe operation.

Check to ensure the Orifice is inside the

Burner Tube before using your gas grill. See

Fig. 2. If the Burner Tube does not fit over

the Valve Orifice, lighting the Burner may

cause explosion and/or fire.

Question: Can I convert my grill from LPG to NG?

Answer: No, your gas grill is manufactured to exact

specifications and is certified for Liquid Propane (LPG) or

Natural Gas (NG) use only. For your safety, conversion

kits are not available. Any attempt to convert your grill

will void your warranty.

Question: The hose and regulator supplied with my

grill does not fit the older LP gas tank IVe used for

years. Why?

Answer: The U.S.Government regulates gas appliances

and LP gas tanks. When regulations are changed the LP

gas tank fittings are altered to insure your safety. If your

LP gas tank does notfit the hose and regulator supplied

with your new grill, the tank is outdated and must be

replaced. Note: Effective April 1,2002 all LP gas tanks

sold must include an "OPD" Overflow Protection Device.

This internal device prevents the LP gas tank from being

overfilled. Tanks without an OPD valve can not be refilled.

Question: Is the serial and model number of my grill

listed somewhere for future reference?

Answer: This information along with the Grill Information

Center telephone number is listed on a silver label found

on the side of the Grill Head, underneath the Side Shelf.

Question: What causes grill parts to rust and what

affect does it have on the grill materials.

Answer: Rusting is a natural oxidation process and may

appear on cast-iron and steel parts. Rust will not affect

the short term performance of your grill. To protect

against the natural rusting process, your Cooking Grids

and Flame Tamers have a porcelain finish. However,

dropping, scraping or scratching these items will damage

the porcelain finish and allow rusting. To minimize

rusting we recommend you "season" the Cooking Grids

regularly--before and after each use. Consistent

seasoning will help resist rusting and will create a non-

stick cooking surface.

Question: How do Iseason Cooking Grids ?

Answer: Before and after each cookout, apply a thin

layerof cooking oil, spray or shortening to each Cooking

Grid. Be sure to coat the entire surface including edges

and any areas with chipped porcelain. Insert the Cooking

Grids into your warm grill for 2 to 3 minutes.

Question: What is the best way to protect my new

Kenmore gas grill from the weather?

Answer: A good quality grill cover should be used to

protect your grill when not in use. Kenmore Grill Cover

#15831 is made to fit this particular grill model. Also,

follow the cleaning and maintenance instructions in this

Owner's Manual on a timely basis and your new grill will

give you years of enjoyment.

Question: My grill does not light properly. Why?

Answer: Always lightthe burner farthest from the fuel source

first. This draws gas across the manifold helping prevent air

pockets which obstruct gas flow. Also check these causes:

• Check LP gas supply.

• Check to insure all gas connections are secure.

• The Ignition AA battery may need replacing.

• Ignition wires may be loose. Remove the battery,

inspect the Ignitor Junction Box found behind the

Control Panel and connect any loose wires.

• Spark Electrode Tips may need repositioning. With the

gas supply closed and all Control Knobs set to OFF

press the Ignitor Button and have another person watch

for the presence of a spark at the Electrode Tips. The

gap between the Spark Electrode Tip and Spark

Receiver should be about 3/16". If there is no spark at

Electrode Tip, refer to the "Electrode Check" proce-

dures in this manual and adjust gap as directed.

• Check that the end of each burner tube is properly

located over each gas valve orifice.

• There may be an obstruction in the gas line. To correct

this, remove LP gas Hose and Regulator from your grill.

Do not smoke! Open gas supply for one second to

clear any obstruction from fuel line. Close off gas

supply at source and reconnect fuel line to your grill.

• If an obstruction is suspected in the orifice or gas

valves call the Grill Information Center.

Question: My grill has a low flame and sometimes will

not light. Why?

Answer: You need to purge air from the gas line or reset the

regulator excess gas flow device. Opening the tank valve all

the way or too quickly is what triggers the regulators safety

device to shut down the gas flow which prevents excessive

gas flow to your grill. Lighting the burner farthest from the

fuel source every time will help eliminate air pockets in the

manifold. Note: This procedure should be done every time a

new LP gas tank is connected to your grill:

* Turn all Control Knobs to the OFF position.

* Turn off the LP gas tank at the tank valve.

* Disconnect regulator from LP gas tank.

* Let unit stand for 5 minutes.

* Reconnect regulator to the LP gas tank.

* Open the Grill Lid. Turn the LP gas tank valve on

slowly until 1/4 to 1/2 open.

* Li,qht the burner farthest from the fuel source by

turning its Control Knob to HIGH.

Question: Sometimes I hear a humming sound

coming from my LP gas regulator. What causes this?

Answer: The humming noise isgas flowing through the regu-

lator. A low volume of noise is normal and will not interfere

with the operation of your grill. If the humming noise is loud

and excessive you need to purge air from the gas line or

reset the regulator excess gas flow device following the pro-

cedure above. This procedure should be done every time a

new LP gas tank is connected to your grill. For additional

help call the Grill Information Center 8am - 8pm CST,

Monday through Friday at: 1- 888- 317- 7642.

Z WARNING

Your grill will get very hot. Always wear a

flame retardant BBQ Mitt when cooking on your

grill. Never lean over cooking areas while using

grill. Do not touch cooking surfaces, Lid, grill

housing or other parts while grill is in operation,

or until the grill has cooled down after use.

Failure to comply with these instructions

may result in serious bodily injury.

Bum-Off

Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you will

want to "burn off" the grill to eliminate any odor or

foreign matter. Just ignite the burners, lower the Lid, and

operate grill on the HIGH setting for three to five minutes.

CAUTION:

Operating your grill on the HIGH setting for longer than

five minutes may damage certain parts of your grill. Do

not leave your grill unattended.

Preheating

To preheat, light your grill on HIGH, lower the Lid and

follow this timetable:

• For high temperature cooking, preheat grill

3 to 5 minutes.

• For low temperature cooking, preheat grill

3 minutes.

• To slow cook, preheating is not necessary.

Cooking Temperatures

High setting: Only use this setting for fast warm-up,

searing steaks or chops and for burning food residue

off the grill after cooking is complete. Never use the

HIGH setting for extended cooking.

Medium to Low Settings: Most recipes specify

medium to low settings, including all smoking, rotis-

serie cooking and for cooking lean cuts such as fish.

NOTE: Temperature settings will vary with the tem-

perature and the amount of wind outside your home.

Direct Cooking

The direct cooking method can be used with the

supplied Cooking Grids and food placed directly over

the lit grill Burners. Direct cooking requires the Grill

Lid to be up. This method is ideal for searing and

whenever you want meat, poultry or fish to have an

open-flame barbecued taste. Deep frying and smoking

are also best cooked in this manner because they

require direct heat.

Indirect Cooking

The indirect cooking method can also be used with the

supplied Cooking Grids. To cook indirectly, the food

should be placed on the left or right side of your grill

with the Burner lit on the opposite side. Or place your

food on the Secondary Cooking Rack mounted inside

your grill bowl and light the 2 outer grill Burners. Either

way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid

down.

Seasoning Cooking Grids

Before and after each cookout, apply a thin layer of

cooking oil, spray or vegetable shortening to each

Cooking Grid. Be sure to coat the entire surface includ-

ing edges and any areas with chipped porcelain. Insert

the Cooking Grids into your warm grill for 2 to 3 minutes.

Flare-Ups

The fats and juices dripping from grilled food can cause

flare-ups. Since flare-ups impart a favorably, distinctive

taste and color to food cooked over an open flame,

they should be accepted up to a point. Nevertheless,

uncontrolled flaring can result in a ruined meal.

z WARNING

Do not line the bottom of the grill housing

with aluminum foil, sand or any substance

that will restrict the flow of grease into the

Grease Draining Tray and Receptacle.

Failure to comply with these instructions

could result in a fire or explosion which

could cause serious bodily injury, death, or

property damage.

CONGRATULATIONS

Your Kenmore gas grill is now ready to grill. Re-

member to keep the Lid up when cooking directly on

the grill. For most foods it's best to start grilling on

high. Once the food is seared, reduce the heat to

medium. Foods marinated with ingredients such as

honey may burn because of the high sugar content.

You should begin their cooking on medium.

Always follow safety procedures as outlined in this

manual and wear a flame retardant BBQ Mitt when

cooking on your grill.

Grilling Steak and Ribs

Turn the grill Burners on HIGH, close the Lid

and preheat your grill 3 to 5 minutes.Open

Lid and place the meat on the Cooking Grid

directly above the lit Burners. Cook the meat

on both sides until seared. Reduce the heat

to MEDIUM and cook meat until done. Grilling

times will vary according to meat thickness.

Grilling Hamburgers and Sausages

Turn the grill Burners on HIGH, close Lid and

preheat your grill 3 to 5 minutes. Open Lid

and place the meat on the Cooking Grid

directly above the lit Burners. Cook the meat

on both sides until seared. Reduce the heat

to MEDIUM and cook the meat until done.

Grilling times will vary according to meat

thickness.

Grilling Poultry

Turn the grill Burners on HIGH, close Lid and

preheat your grill 2 to 3 minutes. Then raise

the Lid, reduce heat to MEDIUM and cook

poultry directly over lit Burners until done.

Poultry skin is fatty so you should expect

some flare-ups when using this direct

method.

To minimize flare-ups, try grilling poultry using

the indirect method. Place the poultry on one

side of the grill with the opposing Burners on

MEDIUM heat, and lower the grill Lid. Grilling

times will vary based on the size of your

poultry.

Grilling Pork

Turn Burners on HIGH and preheat your grill

3 to 5 minutes with the Lid closed. Raise Lid,

place pork on Cooking Grid and cook until

seared. Reduce heat to MEDIUM and cook

until done. Grilling times will vary according to

meat thickness.

Prepare your fruit or vegetables and brush with butter

or basting sauce if desired. To cook indirectly, the

food should be placed on the left or right side of your

grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side and the

grill lid down. Or center your food on the Secondary

Cooking Rack and light the outer grill Burners. Either

way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid

down.

In some instances, you may want to grill vegetables

and fruit directly over the heat, using the supplied

Cooking Grids. Foods that work best with direct heat

are relatively soft and require a short cooking time:

mushrooms, zucchini, tomatoes and skewered fruit

such as apricots, peaches, pineapple, strawberries

and kiwis. Remember the Grill Lid must remain up

when cooking directly.

For very firm vegetables--particularly potatoes and

yams, we recommend that you partially boil until

almost cooked, before placing them on the grill.

Cooking times using the indirect method with the

hood down will be similar to those for your kitchen

oven. However, there are many factors such as outside

temperature, wind conditions and location of grill that

affect your grill performance so we suggest you watch

the grill thermometer and adjust the heat accordingly.

Cooking times for foods prepared with the direct

method will be much shorter mainly because of the

direct heat sourse and softness of the food. Timing will

be comparable to normal pan frying or grilling.

An important Note About Heat Settings

The suggested heat settings shown are approximate.

There are many factors such as outside temperature,

wind conditions and grill location that affect your grill

performance. We offer these cooking times as a

convenience, but suggest you watch the grill thermom-

eter and adjust the heat accordingly.

Preparing to Roast

Roasting uses the indirect cooking method. Therefore,

the food should be placed on the left or right side of your

grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side. You can

also use the supplied Cooking Grid with an aluminum

drip pan underneath allowing you to collect juices for

making gravies. Remember, indirect cooking requires

the Lid of your grill to be down.

Preheating your grill is not required for slow cooking

methods such as roasting. Ifyou do choose to preheat

your grill before roasting, turn the Burners on HIGH and

close Lid for approximately 2-3 minutes.

Food preparation

Trim meat of excess fat. Truss meat and poultry with

cooking string to retain shape if desired. Bacon strips

can be used to cover the outside surface of lean meat

and poultry to help prevent itfrom drying out. Another

method for keeping food moist during roasting isto put

water in a cooking pan, then cover with foil. The foil

should be removed for the first or the last part of the

cooking time to ensure proper browning.

Tips for roasting

Except when roasting with water in a roasting pan, the

juices that collect in the pan can be used as the base for

a tasty sauce or graw. Place a cooking pan directly over

the heat, add extra butter if needed, then add several

spoonfuls of flour to thicken sauce. Finally, add sufficient

chicken or beef stock to obtain the desired consistency.

Once the meat is cooked, remove itfrom your grill and

cover with a piece of foil. Allow it to stand for 10-15

minutes which allows the juices to settle. This will make

carving easier and ensure a tender, juicy roast.

BAKING TECHNIQUES

From casseroles and cornbread to delicious desserts

like fondue fruit skewers or crumb cake, baking on the

grill is as easy as baking in the kitchen.

Preparing to Bake

To bake in your new grill you'll need a baking dish or

cast-iron cooking pan, and a pair of insulated cooking

mitts, tf the cooking pan is cast-iron be sure to season

the pan before use.

Preheat your grill 3-5 minutes, then lower heat to achieve

the baking temperature desired. Baking uses the

indirect cooking method. Therefore, your cooking pan

should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with

the burner liton the opposite side.

Tips for Baking

Prepare your favorite recipe as you would in the kitchen.

Foods cooked in the grill for long periods of time should

always be covered in aluminum foil to retain moisture.

You will need to stir the food several times as it bakes,

and add additional liquid if required.

Watch the temperature, and adjust to cook according to

your recipe directions.

Oven Temperature

Slow 300° - 340 ° F

Moderate 355° - 390 ° F

Slow Cooking with a Rotisserie

Rotisserie cooking produces foods that are moist,

flavorful and attractive. The optional rotisserie system

is most commonly used for cooking meat or poultry

and is desi,qned to cook food slowly. You can place a

cooking pan beneath the food to collect juices for

basting and gravy. To flavor the contents of the cooking

pan you may add herbs, onions, or other spices of

your choice.

The cooking times on a rotisserie will be approximately

the same as for oven cooking.

Balancing the Food

In rotisserie cooking, balancing the food is of utmost

importance. The rotisserie must turn evenly or the

stopping and starting action will cause the food to cook

unevenly and possibly burn the heavier side.

The easiest foods to balance are those of uniform

shape and texture. To test if the food is balanced

correctly when secured, place the ends of the rotis-

serie spit loosely in the palms of your hands. If there is

no tendency to roll, give the spit a quarter turn. If it is

still stable, give it a final quarter turn. It should rest

without turning in each of these positions. It can then

be attached to your grill.

Food Preparation

When preparing poultry, truss the birds tightly so that

wings and drumsticks are close to the body of the bird.

The cavity of the bird may be stuffed prior to this. Pull

the neck skin down and, using a small skewer, fix it to

the back of the bird. Push the rotisserie spit through

lengthwise, catching the bird in the fork of the

wishbone. Center the bird and tighten with the holding

forks. Test the balance as described before.

A rolled piece of meat requires the rotisserie skewer to

be inserted through the center of the length of meat,

then secured and balanced.

For meats that contain bones, it is best to secure the

rotisserie skewer diagonally through the meaty

sections. If protruding bones or wings brown too

quickly, cover with pieces of foil.

Preparing to Smoke

Smoking gives food a distinctive, delicious flavor. You

will find a variety of wood chips or pellets available for

use in smoking grilled foods. Pre-soaking of wood

chips may be required so read and follow the manufac-

turers instructions for preparation of smoking chips

prior to use.

Note: it is our experience that many smoking chip and

pellet products do not actually produce a smoke but

instead infuses the food with flavor. Please read

product labels carefully and if in doubt, ask your

retailer for details.

Using A Smoker Box

There are many optional smoking boxes available for

purchase. Follow these guidelines and always refer to

the label of your smoking chips or pellets for specific

directions.

Raise your Grill Lid and light the grill. Lower the Grill

Lid allowing your grill to reach the desired cooking

temperature for the food you are grilling. Fill your

smoking box with your prepared smoking chips or

pellets. Dried herbs and spices may also be added to

produce different flavors. Wear an insulated cooking

mitt and place your smoker box on a Cooking Grid or

Flame Tamer directly above a lit grill Burner. The

heated smoking chips or pellets will flavor your foods.

Tips for Smoking

You can reduce the strength of the smoke flavor by

only smoking for half or three quarters of the cooking

time. The heat required for smoking is normally LOW

to MEDIUM.

Foods naturally high in oils lend themselves well to

smoking, while drier foods benefit from a marinade.

You can also rub the food with herbs, spices or

flavored oils. Many foods can be smoked to produce

stunning results with very little effort. Here are a few

suggestions:

• Tuna steaks, marinated in Asian flavors of sesame

oil, soy sauce and sherry.

• Pork fillets, rubbed with ginger, orange rind and

brushed with maple syrup.

• Mussels, brushed with lemon rind and chili oil.

• Lamb cutlets, marinated in virgin olive oil, lemon,

oregano and black pepper. The same marinade can

be used for a whole leg or rack of lamb.

• Chicken, boneless chicken pieces--especially

sliced breasts.

• Fish, sliced fillets of firm fish, assorted seafood

such as prawns, scallops and calamari.

• Pork, sliced fillets, diced or minced pork, sliced

leg steak, sliced chops.

• Beef, sliced fillet, rib-eye, round, rump, sirloin.

• Lamb, sliced fillet, round, loin.

STIR-FRYING TECHNIQUES

This method of cooking is popular around the world and

can be easily accomplished outdoors on your Kenmore

gas grill. It's a quick and healthful way of preparing a

complete meal using meat, poultry or seafood in

infinite combinations with other interesting ingredients

like vegetables, rice or noodles.

Preparing to Stir-fry

Although it is possible to stir fry in other dishes, a wok

is your best tool. Its high sides enable the cook to stir

food without spillage. Its construction allows you to

cook quickly at high temperatures, with instant control

of heat which is essential for successful stir frying.

Food preparation

Slice meat and poultry into long thin strips and cube

fish fillets. Remove all fat from meat and poultry and

cut large vegetables into even slices or cubes.

Marinate foods for extra flavor and tenderness. Marinat-

ing times will vary for red meat, fish and or various

cuts. Less tender cuts of meat should be marinated

longer. Remember to always chill marinating food in

the refrigerator prior to cooking.

Stir-fry meats, poultry or fish first. Next, add hard

vegetables like carrots. Then continue with softer

vegetables like snowpeas and peppers. To ensure even

cooking, continually stir and toss the food in the wok

using a wooden spoon or spatula.

Tips for Stir-frying

Place a wok directly over a HIGH heat on your grill or side

burner. Add only a small amount of food at a time to

ensure fast cooking and also to allow the wok to reheat

between ingredients.

DEEP-FRYING TECHNIQUES

A wide variety of foods can be deep-fried outdoors on

your grill, from potatoes, to seafood and chicken.

Deep-frying uses a large portion of oil, preferably

saturated. The outdoor location is ideal for deep-frying

as smoke, grease and smells reach for the sky--not

the ceiling of your kitchen.

Preparing to Deep-fry

Deep-fry on your grill using a cooking pan or wok, over

direct heat.

Fill a cooking pan no more than half full of vegetable or

corn oil. Start with LOW heat, then raise the heat

gradually. Check the temperature of the oil carefully

with a frying thermometer or test with a cube of bread.

The cube of bread should brown in about 30 seconds

for most cooking needs. A temperature between 350

and 400 degrees is optimal for preparing the majority

of deep-fried foods.

Food Preparation

Foods being deep-fried taste better when coated with

either batter or breadcrumbs to add flavor and prevent

moisture from escaping.

Tips for Deep-frying

Wear an insulated cooking glove and slowly lower

foods into the hot oil using a wire scoop or stainless

steel tongs. Add only a small quantity of food to the

oil, allow it to cook, then repeat with another small

quantity. This ensures the oil doesn't drop in

temperature. Once the food is cooked, remove it

carefully and drain onto a paper towel. Turn the heat

offas soon as you have finished deep-frying and allow

your pan to cool. When the oil is cool, remove all

remnants of fried foods by straining it through a fine

metal sieve, and store it in a clean bottle for future

use.

Vegetables are generally easy to cook on the grill. The

Cooking Rack makes itconvenient because you can

still use the main cooking area while the vegetables

are suspended above the grids.

Pre-cook hard vegetables by briefly boiling or

microwaving them before cooking on the grill. Wrap

vegetables in a double thickness of foil to protect them

while cooking on the grill. Then, remove the foil if

desired, 10-15 minutes before the end of cooking,

brush vegetables with butter or oil and finish cooking.

The Cooking Rack can be used for purposes other

than just the obvious. Consider using the rack for

warming French bread, garlic bread, croissants or

even bagels.

A small whole fish wrapped in foil also cooks well on

the Cooking Rack. Parcels of seafood such as

scallops, prawns and sliced fish fillets prepared in a

sauce and portioned into small foil wraps cook well

this way, too.
