    Different Ways

    to GrillDacor Outdoor Grills provide you withmany different options when preparing your

    favorite recipes. With the convenience,

    flexibility and control of a gas grill you can

    choose from indirect or direct grilling,

    rotisserie and smoking options.

    INDIRECTGRILLING is a cooking

    process that involves placing

    the food away from the heat

    source. If you prepare a meal

    using the indirect method, turn the

    two outside burners On and place your

    food in the middle section of the grill, abovethe unlit burner. The residual heat from the

    two burners indirectly heats and prepares

    your meal. This method of cooking is

    especially effective when preparing tougher,

    larger cuts of meat that require longer

    cooking times. For larger cuts of meats and

    roasts use a V shaped rack. This will elevatethe meat for more even cooking and

    eliminate the need for flipping or rotating.

    DIRECTGRILLING involves cooking over an

    active burner or using the infrared rotisserie

    burner, which also applies direct cooking

    heat. This is a very hot method of cooking,

    grilling between 400-600 degrees. The high

    heat provides an excellent sear, sealing in all

    the flavorful juices and browning the surface

    with a crisp delicious crusted coating.

    ROTISSERIEGRILLING uses the

    infrared burner located on

    the back wall of your Dacor

    Outdoor Grill. This method

    of cooking is an excellent way of

    preparing chicken, game hens, ducks, pork

    loins and boneless rib roasts. Use the rotisserie

    rod and forks to position your meal perfectly

    in relationship to the infrared burner. As

    the motor slowly rotates, the meat sears and

    cooks evenly on all sides, producing a

    flavorful, crispy-browned and juicy meal.

    SMOKING couldnt be easier with

    our removable stainless steelsmoker tray. The hinged door

    design and variable location

    positioning make smoking

    convenient and successful. So whether you

    are smoking salmon fillets or a beef roast on

    the rotisserie, you can enjoy the rich added

    flavor it produces.

    How to Use

    the GrillSince you own a Dacor Outdoor Grill you maywonder if Lighting the Grill means turning

    on the halogen lights or igniting the burners.

    In either case its as easy as flipping a switch or

    rotating a knob. There are, however, a few things

    to consider before lighting your gas grill.n Always open the canopy hood beforeigniting the grill. Make sure that the gas valveto the grill is open and flowing.n Light one burner at a time, pressingin on the control knob and turning it

    counterclockwise until you hear a clicking

    ignition sound.n Your burners should ignite within 4 to10 seconds. Note that the controls start onHIGH. As you turn the knob counterclockwise

    the flame will turn lower.

    n Repeat this step when lighting theadditional burners.n For detailed instructions please consultyour Use and Care manual.n Preheat the grill for 15 to 20 minutesbefore cooking to ensure its hot and ready

    to cook.n The length of time it takes to grill dependson many factorsis the meat at roomtemperature, is it completely defrosted, how

    many pounds, flame settings, etc.n Refer to the indirect, direct and rotisseriecharts to help estimate cooking times.

    Grilling Tipsn Most importantly, the barbecue needsconstant attention. For best results, keep awatchful eye on the food at all times.n Bring foods to room temperature beforegrilling. They should also be thawedcompletely before grilling. This will prevent

    the food from being cold in the center and

    cooked on the outside. It also allows the

    meat to cook more fully.n Be organized. Prepare as much in advanceas possible. Marinate meats well in advancefor better flavor. Have all supplies, tongs,

    spatulas, and hot pads handy.n Have a clean plate ready to place thecooked foods ontoNOT the plate the rawmeat was marinated in or carried out to the

    barbecue on.n When using direct heat, start out cookingon a hot grill. Heat the grill with the canopy

    lid down for 15 minutes. To see if the grill is

    hot enough, hold your hand about 5 inches

    from the cooking surface. If you can hold

    your hand there for more than 5 seconds, it

    is not ready yet. Start with a hot grill and

    adjust from thereyou will have better

    control of your heat. Also, foods will not

    stick to the grates if they are hot.

    n Thinner cuts of meat should be cooked ata high heat and as quickly as possible to

    retain juices and get a nice sear.n Medium thick foods should be started onhigh heat to sear the food, then either

    moved to a cooler part of the barbecue or

    lower the heat to fully cook the food.n Thick items also need to be seared quicklyto lock in the juices, then finished on a

    lower temperature to fully cook.n Barbecue sauces and other marinades thathave sugars in them should be brushed ontothe food in the last 30 minutes of cooking.Otherwise the sugars will caramelize tooquickly, causing the food to burn on the

    outside. If it is an item that cooks fairly

    quickly, though, the sauce may be brushed

    on at the beginning. Hamburgers are a goodexample of these.n Foods with the bone in, such as chickenpieces, begin cooking with the bone sidedown. This will begin the cooking process

    without causing the breast meat side to cook

    too quickly.n To prevent steaks and other meats with fataround them from curling, slit the fat with aknife.n To prevent flare-ups, trim off the excessfat around the meats.

    n Some trials may be necessary to achievethe right temperatures to cook various foods.

    Thin items may dry up too quickly on too

    high of a heat, while really thick items may

    only sear on the outside and remain raw inside.n There is no need to grease the gratesbefore placing the meat on the grill. If youallow the grill to come up to a high heat,meats will not stick to the grates. Also, the

    foods should be allowed to caramelize and

    cook fully before flipping. Most of the time,

    you will see the edges turn darker or moreopaque when the food is ready to be flipped.n It is best to use tongs to flip meats insteadof a meat fork. The meat fork will pierce thefood, letting flavorful juices run out.n Only flip the foods once, as multipleflipping can cause the meats to dry out.n Do you leave the canopy lid up or down?Good question! Leaving it up causes sometemperature loss and may increase thecooking time. Leaving it down causes the

    temperature to rise very quickly as the heat is

    trapped inside. Foods may cook too quickly.

    Since grilling is best at high temperatures

    and is a fast process, leaving the canopy lid

    down will produce the best results. Just

    remember, for longer cooking times leave it

    down. Since some items, such as hamburgers

    and hot dogs, cook for a short period oftime, it doesnt really matter whether you

    leave it up or down. It is easier, however, to

    monitor the foods progress with the canopy

    lid up.

    THEUSE OFALUMINUMFOIL

    Using foil is a great way to prevent smaller

    cuts of meat and vegetables from fallingthrough the grates. It also allows the food

    wrapped in foil to steamwhich locks in

    juices, flavors, and vitamins. Be careful when

    opening foil packets, as escaping steam can

    burn you. Please see the grilling charts for

    foods recommended to be wrapped in foil.

    VERY IMPORTANTFlare-ups happen faster when the canopy lid is

    down, so keep a watchful eye on your grilled foods.

    Marinating MeatsMarinating not only adds flavor, it also

    tenderizes the meats and preventscarcinogens from penetrating the meat.

    Here are a few rules to get the best results

    when marinating:n cup of marinade is enough for eachpound of meat. If it is a large roast, more

    may be needed.n The food should be turned in the marinadeevery once in a while so that the marinade isable to flavor all sides of the food.n Heavy-duty plastic bags are great tomarinate foods. Some marinades may be high

    in acids, such as fruit juice-based marinades

    and some metal utensils may react with theseacids. Acids can impart a metallic flavor into

    the food and can also discolor the metal.

    It is best to use plastic or glass containers

    to marinate.n Thicker cuts of meat, such as beef, lamband pork, may be marinated for up to 24 hours.n Thinner cuts of meat, such as chickenbreasts and turkey cutlets, should bemarinated for no longer than 2 hours.

    n Fish and shellfish should be marinatedfor no longer than 1 hour.n Refrigerate all meats while they aremarinating, but allow the meats to come toroom temperature before placing them onthe grill. This should take no more than

    20 minutes.

    n Never consume a marinade in which theraw meat has been soaking. The meats cantransfer harmful bacteria to the sauce. If youwish to use this marinade, place it in asaucepan and bring it to a boil. Simmer forat least 15 minutes.n For great marinating ideas, see recipes inthe Sauces, Rubs, and Marinades section ofthis book on page 31.

    Grilling EssentialsThis is a small list of accessories you may need

    while barbecuing. Through your own research,you will decide what works best for you:n LONG-HANDLED TONGSI prefer thetraditional aluminum set because the grill

    ones have so much tension, they require a

    strong grip.n WIDE SPATULAthere are some fabulousspatulas on the market for grilling. A four-in-one, with a serrated edge, scraper edge, regularspatula usage, and a bottle opener end isthe greatest invention Ive seen in a long time.n MARINADE BRUSH OR BARBECUEMOP BRUSHES

    are good for adding barbecuesauce in the last 10 minutes of cooking. A

    mop is used to add moisture to the food

    while it is cooking. It is usually something

    that will not affect the caramelization of the

    meatmeaning it will not add sugar and

    cause the meat to brown even faster. Mop

    recipes are usually made up of wine, beer,

    stocks, vinegars, herbs, etc. A mop is just

    thatbut smaller. It looks like a mini mop

    with a wood handle.n METAL OR BAMBOO SKEWERSEither ofthese work well for grilling applications. If

    you use the bamboo skewers, soak them in

    hot water for at least 30 minutes before

    stringing the food onto them. This will help

    prevent them from burning while on the

    grill (they will still burn, however), and it

    also prevents them from splintering whilestringing the food onto them.n APRONLets face itgrilling is not a cleanform of cooking! An apron will protect yourclothes, and it also has very useful pockets

    for utensils, thermometers, etc.n THERMOMETERsome sort of instant readthermometer is a great tool to have. This

    will ensure proper doneness for your meats.

    There are some great ones out therea

    regular instant-read with a stem and a dial, a

    stem with a wire and digital read-out (this

    one can be left in the food and display

    screen placed somewhere outside the grill).

    I really do love the thermometer forks. Thisis a plastic meat fork with metal tongs. The

    metal tongs read the internal temperature of

    the meat when placed into the food. It is

    important not to pierce the food until you

    think it is ready, so that valuable juices are

    not lost.n HOTPADSThis is THE MOSTIMPORTANT thing you can have by yourgrill. I know this from experience! The grillprovides powerful flames, so the canopy lid,grill, food etc will be hot. Buy the ones with

    the extra long sleeves.

    How to Use

    the RotisserieThe rotisserie uses the infrared element onthe back of the grill wall to sear meats evenly

    on all sides. The meat is placed on a spit

    that will rotate in front of the infrared

    element. Searing the meat quickly will help

    lock in juices, producing flavorful, crispy-

    browned and juicy products.n Slide one rotisserie fork onto the rotisserierod to the center. Tighten it slightly.n Place meat onto the rotisserie rod,securing it with the rotisserie fork. See

    page 23 on how to truss poultry to help

    keep the meat in place.n Slide second rotisserie fork onto rod andtighten it.n Insert pointed end of rod into rotisseriemotor and rest the blunted end on bracket

    to the left.n Loosen wing nuts on the rotisserie forksto center the meat in front of the infraredburner (the white ceramic piece in the backof the grill). Tighten the wing nuts firmly.n Make sure the rotisserie is plugged in andturn the switch on to rotate the meat.

    n Check the food to make sure it is rotatingevenly. If not, remove the rotisserie rod andmeat and readjust its placement.n Turn the far right knob onthis is therotisserie control knob.n Close the canopy lid.n Follow the times and temperatures on theRotisserie Cooking chart on page 24.n To check for doneness, turn the rotisseriemotor off. Take an internal temperature of

    the food with an instant read thermometer.n If the food is done, turn off the motorand the rotisserie burner and remove theentire rotisserie rod with hot pads. Place on a

    clean cookie sheet.n Use hot pads to loosen the wing nuts andremove the rotisserie rod and forks.n Allow the meat to rest for 10 to15 minutes before carving (see note onCarry-over Cooking on page 92).n Clean rotisserie rod and forks with hotsoapy water and the coarse side of a sponge.

    Rotisserie Tipsn If the food is not rotating properly, it willnot cook evenly. Make sure that it is turningat an even pace.n All times and temperatures in the rotisseriecharts are guidelines based on using the infraredrotisserie burner only. However, if you feel you

    need more heat, the grill elements may be

    turned on at the same time as the rotisserie

    burner. Frequently check the food for doneness.n The length of time it takes to rotisseriecook the food depends on many factorsis the meat at room temperature, is itcompletely defrosted, how many pounds is

    it, etc. The Rotisserie Cooking chart should

    serve as a guide to estimate approximately

    how long the food will take to cook. After

    becoming familiar with your grill, however,

    you will become the master at your own

    timing and your own techniques for

    rotisserie cooking.n The maximum amount of weight that therotisserie can hold is 15 pounds. A 15-poundturkey should turn and sear correctly using

    the rotisserie burner.n Always use cotton string to truss meats.Do not use nylon or plastic string, as it will

    melt. To properly truss meats, see Trussing

    Poultry or Meat on the opposite page.

    n The rotisserie does not need to bepreheated before using it. In fact, it will beeasier to place the skewer in the proper

    brackets before turning the infrared burner on.n If you have a favorite oven-roasted meat,this recipe can easily be replicated on arotisserie. Follow the times and temperaturesin the Rotisserie Cooking chart.n A pan may be placed underneath therotisserie-cooked item to catch drippings.

    n The rotisserie can be used in combinationwith the smoker. See Smoking Tips tooperate the smoker, and refill the chipsoften to get the best flavor.n Keep the canopy lid closed whilerotisserie cooking. This will help lock in the

    juices and shorten cooking time.n Baste meats during the last 30 minuteswhile rotisserie cooking. This will preventsugary marinades from browning too fast.n Tender meats are best on the rotisserie,due to the quick and intense sear.n Let meats rest for about 10 to 15 minutesbefore carving. This will allow the juices to

    redistribute through the meat.n Various marinades and rubs can be usedon rotisserie-cooked foods. See the Rotisserie

    Recipes in this book.

    Trussing Poultryor MeatTrussing means to tie meat or poultry with

    string before cooking in order to give it a

    compact shape for more even cooking and

    better appearance. It is important to truss

    meat and poultry while using the rotisserie.

    This will help the spit turn at a more even

    rate and help the food cook and brownmore evenly.n Remove neck and gizzard from the birdscavity. Rinse the bird with cool runningwater and pat dry with paper towels.n Fold wings back, sothat they are restingbehind its neck.n Cut a piece of cottonstring about 24 incheslong, depending on the

    size of the bird. Do not

    use plastic string or fishing

    line to truss the bird.n Lay the bird breastside up. Pass the middleof the string underneaththe joints of the drumstick,

    and cross the end of the

    strings to make an X.

    n Pull the ends of thestring down towards thetail and pull the string back

    along the body, tucking the

    string into the thighs.n Pull the string backover the wings.n Pull one end of the stringsecurely underneath the

    backbone at the neck

    opening. Tie the two ends of

    the string with a secure knot.n Place one of therotisserie forks onto therotisserie rod. Slide birdonto rotisserie rod. Place second rotisserie

    fork onto rod and center the two forks and

    the bird in front of the rotisserie burner.

    Tighten the wing nuts to secure the bird.n Spin the rod in your hands to make surethe bird is properly balanced. If it is not,readjust its placement. This is very important

    because if it is not secure, the bird will

    cook unevenly and will not rotate on the

    rotisserie properly.

    27/87

    27

    How toSmoke Foodsn Start by soaking about two to threegenerous handfuls of small wood chips inwater for at least 30 minutes.n Pour off water from soaked chips, andplace some chips in smoker box to fill about

    half way. Close the smoker box lid. If thefood smokes/cooks for more than 30

    minutes, reserve some chips to add during

    the cooking process.n Place two larger even heat channels and twolarger grates to the sides of the barbecue. Place

    one smaller even heat channel and one grate

    close to the side of the smoker box. Placesmoker box in the center of the barbecue

    without a grate or even heat channels.n Make sure burner beneath smoker tray ison. Turn on other burners according to basic

    Direct/Indirect Cooking or Rotisserie

    Cooking chart, whether indirect or direct

    heat source is used.n Close canopy lid and allow smoke togather in the barbecue. This will take about15 to 20 minutes.

    n Place food as close to the smoker aspossible, as this will allow the flavors to bothpenetrate and tenderize the meat.n Close the canopy lid and follow the timeson the Direct/Indirect Cooking or RotisserieCooking charts for meats. Use a spatula or

    tongs instead of a meat fork to turn the

    meat, as this will pierce the meat and allow

    juices to run out.n If the wood chips begin to catch fire(small red embers will appear in the smoker

    box), a small amount of water may be addedto the smoker box.n Wood chips will smoke for approximately15 minutes, so replace chips frequentlyduring the smoking process. Use hot pads

    and tongs to do so, as the smoker tray will

    be very hot. Do not remove the hot smoker

    tray. Instead, have the chips drained and

    ready to go into the smoker box.n Adjust flame under the smoker box tomedium if the wood chips burn too quickly.n Always take an internal temperature ofmeats to determine doneness. See Minimum

    Safe Internal Temperatures on page 92.

    Smoking Tipsn Have all your ingredients ready beforeyou begin smoking. This includes rubs,marinades, utensils for turning, extra wood

    chips soaked, and, most importantly, hot pads.n Smoking is as much of an art as it is ascience. Knowing when to add wood chips,

    adjust flames, add water, etc. is something

    you will acquire by experimenting.

    Take down notes of successes, such astemperatures, foods, and amount of

    wood chips used.n Use tongs and hot pads to add woodchips, turn meats, add water, etc.n Adding fresh herbs, such as rosemary andthyme, in with the wood chips adds aunique and pleasant flavor. They burn

    quickly, though, so replace them often.n Fresh fruit peels, such as apple and orange,can be added to the wood chips for flavor.

    Tea leaves can also be added for flavor.

    n Some liquids can be added to the smokertray instead of water to help add flavor andmoisture. A few good ones to try are apple

    juice or cider, chicken stock, beer or wine.n The smoker box can also be used to steamfoods. Add water to the box and turn on the

    burner underneath it.nWhen replacing wood chips, be preparedand leave the canopy lid open for a minimal

    amount of time. Otherwise, you will lose the

    valuable smoke.n Most smoking requires low heat and lowtemperatures.n If you dont see billows of smokecoming out of the grill, it is probably

    time to add more wood chips.

    More smoke = more flavor.

    Good Woods to Use for SmokingWOODCHARACTERISTICS

    Smoky, sharp flavor. Think true

    Southern Barbecue, because this is

    the wood most often used there.

    More subtle flavor than hickory,

    yet similar in taste. Burns easily, so

    this wood is good for lower

    temperature smoking.

    Sweet wood, burns hot. Be careful

    to replace wood chips often, as

    mesquite can taste bitter if burned

    for long periods of time.

    Light, delicate flavor. Usedprimarily in the Pacific Northwest,

    specifically for smoking salmon.

    Distinctive and pleasant flavor,

    blends well with many textures

    and flavors.

    Sweet and mildly smoky

    Sweet, fruity smoke flavor
