Troubleshooting
Grill surface is sticking.
Ensure the grill has been used several times to build up the natural non-stick seasoning. Clean thoroughly and reapply a thin layer of cooking oil after each use. Ensure food is not placed on a cold grate.
Uneven heating.
Distribute charcoal or briquettes evenly in the base. Adjust the position of the coals or use the air supply control to manage heat distribution. Ensure the grilling grate is level.
Difficulty adjusting grate height.
Ensure the grill is completely cool before attempting to adjust the grate. Check for any debris obstructing the adjustment mechanism.
Rust appears on cast iron.
Rust indicates the protective oil layer has worn off or the grill has been exposed to moisture. Clean the rusted area with a steel wool pad, wash, dry thoroughly, and re-season the affected area with cooking oil.
