FAQs

What type of gas does the Carri Chef 40 use?

The Cadac Carri Chef 40 typically uses propane or butane gas, requiring a compatible regulator and gas cylinder.

Can I use other Cadac cooking surfaces with this BBQ?

Yes, the Carri Chef 40 is part of the Series 40 system and is compatible with all other Series 40 cooking surfaces.

How compact is it when packed?

It packs down neatly into a durable storage bag, making it easy to transport and store, including its two-part legs.

What is the cooking height?

The BBQ offers two cooking heights: approximately 93cm (high setting) and 70cm (low setting).

Is the dome lid safe to touch when the BBQ is hot?

The dome lid features a stay-cool handle, designed to remain cool enough to touch during operation.

How do I clean the ceramic GreenGrill grid?

Allow it to cool, then clean with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. For tougher residue, a specialized grate scrubber can be used.

Does it come with a gas hose and regulator?

Typically, the gas hose and regulator are sold separately. Please check the product packaging or description for specifics.

Troubleshooting

BBQ does not ignite with piezo ignition.

Ensure the gas is turned on at the cylinder. Check that the battery for the piezo igniter is correctly inserted and functional. Hold the ignition button down for a few seconds while turning the gas control knob to allow gas to reach the igniter.

Uneven cooking or low heat.

Check that the gas cylinder is not empty and the regulator is functioning correctly. Ensure the burner ports are not blocked by debris. Verify that the cooking grid and fat pan are correctly seated.

Difficulty assembling the legs.

Ensure you are screwing the legs into the correct designated points. Make sure the threads are clean and free from obstructions before attempting to screw them in.

Gas odor after connecting.

Slight odor when first connecting gas is normal. After turning on, if a strong persistent odor is present, immediately turn off the gas at the cylinder and check all connections for tightness. Do not use if a leak persists.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly portable with a compact storage solution.
  • Versatile cooking options due to its modular design and dual-height legs.
  • Durable ceramic-coated cooking grid for excellent heat distribution and easy cleaning.
  • Integrated thermometer in the lid aids in temperature control.
  • Stable on various terrains thanks to adjustable feet.

Cons

  • Requires a gas supply (e.g., gas cylinder), which may need separate purchase and management.
  • The cooking area may be smaller than a full-sized backyard barbecue.
  • Assembly, while straightforward, involves attaching legs and connecting gas.
  • The primary cooking surface is a grid; other surfaces like griddles or pizza stones are sold separately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Attach the two-part legs to the main body of the BBQ. Ensure they are securely screwed in.
  2. Connect your gas source (e.g., gas cylinder) to the BBQ using the appropriate hose and regulator. Ensure all connections are tight.
  3. Place the enamelled fat pan and then the ceramic GreenGrill BBQ grid onto the burner.
  4. Attach the dome lid using its hook.

Compatibility:

  • The Carri Chef 40 is compatible with all Cadac Series 40 cooking surfaces, including paella pans, pizza stones, and griddles (sold separately).
  • It requires a suitable gas cylinder and regulator (typically butane or propane).

Care:

  • Cleaning the Grid: Allow the grid to cool completely. Wipe clean with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. For stubborn residue, use a Cadac Grate Scrubber.
  • Cleaning the Fat Pan: The enamelled fat pan is removable. Empty any collected fat into a suitable container and wash with warm, soapy water.
  • Cleaning the Dome Lid: Wipe the interior and exterior with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth.
  • Storage: Once cool and clean, pack all components, including the two-part legs, into the provided durable storage bag.
  • Periodic Maintenance: Check gas connections and hoses regularly for wear and tear. Ensure the burner area is free from debris.
