The charcoal basket adds the versatility of charcoal cooking
to your gas grill. The basket comes in two pieces and is simple
to assemble and easy to use.
1. Place the metal grid inside the basket frame (Fig. 1-1).
Note: Some distortion to the metal grid may occur during
cooling after use. This is normal and will not affect the
effi ciency of the basket during use.
2. Remove the cooking grid and fl avor grid from the burner
where you wish to set the charcoal basket.
CAUTION: If the grill is in use, turn off the gas to burners
& use heat-resistant gloves.
3. Place the charcoal basket such that it rests on the burner(s)
in place of the fl avor grid (Fig. 1-2 and reverse side).
4. Place the charcoal onto the assembled metal grid (Fig. 2-3).
Note: You may also use wood chunks.
Important: When piling charcoal, a 3/4" clearance below
the cooking grid must be maintained.
WARNING: The R.H. Peterson Charcoal Basket is designed
and engineered to be used with plain charcoal.
The use of quick-light charcoal is unnecessary
and could be dangerous.
5. Replace the cooking grid back on the grill.
6. Ignite the burners under the charcoal basket as normal,
turn to HI, and leave until the charcoal remains lit without
application of fl ame from the burners (7-10 minutes).
