Unique Features & Benefits
VENTLESS HOOD (7)
Your Hasty-Bake has a hinged hood so you can cook with the hood open or closed. The deep “ventless” hood
is just one of the unique features which enables you to prepare foods which are flavorful and juicy (draft vents
placed in the hood of a grill will dry out foods). The main function of your Hasty-
Bake hood is to hold in the heat and smoke so that it rotates around your food. Your
Hasty-Bake cooks like an oven; it turns the heat instead of you having
to turn the meat.
DUAL DRAFT VENTS (8)
Dual draft vents, combined with the adjustable fire box and Hasty-
Bake’s totally enclosed design, provide you with the ability to
control the fire at all times. The intake draft vent is located on
the fire door, just below the fire level. The exhaust draft
vent is located above the fire level on the opposite
side of the grill, by the push handle. Hasty-Bake’s
unique dual draft vent feature creates a cross
draft in the body of the oven, instead of in the
hood, which allows your foods to be cooked on all
sides. Fully opened vents create an intense heat.
Conversely, vents that are barely open lower the heat for
baking and smoking.
HEAT DEFLECTOR (5)
The heat deflector plate, which is placed on the fire box (when in use),
combines with the ventless hood to enable your Hasty-Bake to cook
like an oven. The heat deflector’s function is to distribute heat evenly
throughout the cooking area without exposing any food to the direct fire and to control flare-ups. Thus, your
Hasty-Bake becomes a “convection” oven and your food can be placed across the entire cooking surface. For
the heat deflector to work properly, confine the coals to not more than half of the fire box (usually the right
hand side, which is the side of the fire box closest to the fire door) and slide the heat deflector into place on
top of the fire box above the coals. Remember to remove the heat deflector when using your Hasty-Bake for
cooking with direct heat (searing).
FULL-WIDTH FIRE DOOR (3)
On all Hasty-Bake models, a full width door permits easy fueling and allows the fire box and ash pan to be
entirely removed for cleaning. The full-width fire door also makes it easy to slide the heat deflector into place
or remove it when necessary. In addition, the fire door makes it easy to access the fire box for refueling during
slow cooking or smoking so that foods never have to be removed from the grill. Use the space at the bottom
of the oven base (below the ash pan) as a warming area while cooking and a storage area when your Hasty-
Bake is not in use.
