FAQs
What size gas bottle do I need?
This BBQ typically requires a propane or patio gas bottle. A 5kg or 13kg bottle is common, but always check the specific regulator type recommended or supplied with your BBQ and purchase a compatible bottle.
Is a regulator included with the BBQ?
No, the regulator and gas hose are sold separately and must be purchased in addition to the BBQ.
How often should I clean the cast iron grates?
Cast iron grates should ideally be cleaned after every use once cooled, and re-seasoned periodically, especially if showing signs of rust or after a deep clean. Regular maintenance prevents rust and ensures longevity.
Can this BBQ be used in the rain?
While the stainless steel construction offers some durability, it is best to use and store this BBQ in dry conditions to protect the components, especially the grates, and ensure optimal performance. A cover is recommended for protection.
What are the dimensions of the cooking area?
The primary cooking area measures 72cm by 42cm.
How many people can this BBQ realistically serve?
This BBQ is ideal for parties of 6+ people, thanks to its large cooking surface and multiple burners.
Does it come assembled?
No, assembly is required for the Fire Mountain Sierra 6 Burner Gas BBQ.
Troubleshooting
BBQ will not ignite
Ensure the gas bottle is connected and the valve is open. Check that the regulator and hose are correctly attached and not kinked. Verify that the igniter switch is being pressed correctly and that the igniter battery (if applicable) is functional.
Uneven heat distribution
Check that all burners are functioning correctly and producing an even flame. Ensure the cooking grills are clean and level. For cast iron grates, ensure they are properly seasoned and not warped.
Low gas flow or weak flame
Check the gas level in your cylinder; it may be low. Inspect the hose and regulator for any blockages or damage. Ensure the gas valve on the cylinder is fully open.
Grease fires during cooking
Keep the BBQ clean by regularly removing grease buildup from the drip tray and burner covers. If a flare-up occurs, move food to a cooler zone or temporarily turn off burners. Never use water on a grease fire; smother it if possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Unpack all components carefully.
- Follow the included assembly instructions to construct the BBQ. This typically involves attaching the side panels, shelves, wheels, and burner covers.
- Ensure all connections are secure.
Compatibility:
- This BBQ requires a standard Calor patio gas bottle or equivalent propane gas cylinder.
- Important: A compatible gas regulator (typically 27mm clip-on for Calor, or appropriate for your gas type) and a suitable gas hose are sold separately. Ensure you purchase these items before use.
Care:
- After Each Use: Allow the BBQ to cool down. Remove large food debris from the cooking grills with a wire brush. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth.
- Regular Cleaning: Periodically, deep clean the cooking grills, warming rack, and interior. Cast iron grates should be seasoned after cleaning to maintain their protective layer and prevent rust. Use a grill cleaner and degreaser as needed.
- Storage: In harsh weather or for long-term storage, consider covering the BBQ with a breathable cover to protect it from the elements. Store the gas cylinder safely outdoors, disconnected from the BBQ if not in use.
