BBQ Tips

Wondering how to light your grill?

• Watch the video (above right) and read the instructions below.

• Place three 3 Heat Beads^® Firelighter cubes on the cooking grate below the centre of the cooking area.
  Note: For best cooking performance the Heat Beads^® BBQ Briquettes should be positioned approximately 150mm below the cooking plate/grill on a fire grate. Briquettes perform better if lit on a fire grate which allows air to circulate beneath the fuel.

• Pour sufficient Heat Beads^® BBQ Briquettes to cover cooking area with one layer, but arrange into a pyramid over the Heat Beads^® Firelighters. Place a fourth Heat Beads^® Firelighter into the top of the pyramid and light the top Heat Beads^® Firelighter. Leave for approximately 30 minutes, or until ashed over.

• When most of the Heat Beads^® BBQ Briquettes are covered in beige ash carefully spread fuel evenly under the cooking area and start cooking.

• TO EXTINGUISH: Where possible pour water over fuel. If water is not available, cover hot briquettes with sand or dirt. Ensure fuel has cooled down before leaving the BBQ unit unattended.
