FAQs

What size chiminea is compatible with this barbecue oven?

This barbecue oven is designed for specific Gardeco chiminea models. Please refer to the product's compatibility list or the dimensions provided (H:166 x W:109 x D:58 cm for the oven system itself) and compare them with your chiminea's internal measurements.

Can I use this barbecue oven in the rain?

While the unit is designed for outdoor use, cooking in heavy rain is not recommended as it can affect fire control and cooking performance. Light drizzle may be manageable.

How do I clean the chromed steel BBQ grill?

The chromed steel BBQ grill can be cleaned with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. Ensure it is dried thoroughly after cleaning to prevent rust.

What is the purpose of the lava stones?

The lava stones help to absorb and distribute heat evenly within the chiminea, preventing direct heat concentration that could cause thermal shock and crack the clay structure. They also contribute to a more consistent cooking temperature.

Can the side tables be removed?

The side tables are integrated into the cradle system and are not designed for removal. They serve as convenient surfaces for placing cooking utensils and ingredients.

Is assembly required for the barbecue oven?

The barbecue oven system typically comes with a cradle and grill that may require minimal assembly, such as attaching the wooden handle to the grill. The chiminea itself is a separate unit.

What are the dimensions of the entire unit?

The overall dimensions of the barbecue oven system (including cradle) are approximately H:166 x W:109 x D:58 cm. Please note that this refers to the combined unit and not just the chiminea.

Troubleshooting

Grill not fitting securely

Ensure you are using the correct Gardeco chiminea model and that the grill's legs are properly aligned to grip the inner walls. Check for any debris obstructing the fit.

Uneven cooking temperature

Distribute the lava stones evenly in the base. Ensure the grill is level. Adjust the position of food on the grill. Using the lid helps maintain consistent heat.

Clay tiles on side tables are dirty

Gently scrub with a soft brush and mild soap, then rinse and air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the glaze.

Chiminea cracking after use

Ensure sufficient lava stones are used to buffer thermal shock. Avoid exposing a cold chiminea to intense heat too quickly; heat gradually.

Compatibility:

Care:

  • Clean the BBQ grill with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. Dry thoroughly.
  • Wipe down the exterior of the chiminea and the cradle with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

  • Store the components in a dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
