GRILLING TIPS
• To prevent heat loss and for even cooking, do not open the Lid frequently.
• Do not overfill grill.
• When first cooking a particular food, check for doneness several minutes
before suggested time; if necessary adjust time.
• When cooking several pieces of food, try to have them similar in size and
thickness.
• Remember that since grill is cooking from both sides cooking time will typically
be shorter than expected. Watch carefully to avoid overcooking.
• For added flavor, add dry seasonings before grilling or marinate foods before
cooking.
Important: Use only silicone, plastic and wooden utensils when cooking on the
grill. Silicone utensils are especially good because they do not discolor or melt
with the high temperature.
GRILLING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
The following are meant to be used as a guideline only. The times reflect a full grill of
food. Cooking time will depend upon thickness of food. Use a fork inserted into the
center of the food to test for doneness. (Be careful not to touch the grill plate.) If the
food needs longer cooking, check periodically to avoid overcooking the food.
FOOD GRILLING TIME
Asparagus spears 4 – 6 minutes
Bell peppers, assorted colors cut into ½-inch rings 5 – 7 minutes
Mushrooms, thickly sliced 4 – 5 minutes
Onion slices, ½-inch 5 – 7 minutes
Potato slices, ½-inch 15 – 18 minutes

Fresh pineapple slices, ½-inch 2 – 4 minutes
Please note: To be sure your food is fully cooked the USDA recommends the
following guidelines. Use a kitchen timer. Using a meat thermometer, test for
doneness by inserting the thermometer into the center of the food being cooked;
make sure the thermometer is not touching the bone or grill plates.
