which allows you to fix the top plate to a
range of positions above the bottom plate.
This allows your Gourmet Health Grill to
be used to grill delicate ingredients such as
fish and hamburger buns without squashing.
1. Allow the Gourmet Health Grill
to preheat until the green 'READY'
light illuminates.
2. Place the food to be grilled on the
bottom plate.
3. Move the Adjustable Grill Control clip on
the right hand side of the Gourmet Health
Grill to the desired height (see fig 1).
4. Slowly lower the top plate until it rests on
the height control clip.
5. The top plate will radiate the desired heat
to lightly grill foods.

The Grill Height Control can
be moved to accommodate
thick or thin foods by sliding
the clip forwards or
backwards along the arm.

USING THE EXTENDABLE FEET
Your Gourmet Health Grill features unique
extendable feet, which are designed to level
the bottom plate when cooking foods such
as sausages. This ensures the sausages do
not roll off the grill but still drain the
maximum amount of fat while cooking. The
extendable feet are also perfect to use while
toasting sandwiches.

HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS FOR
GRILLING MEAT
For best Grilling results use meat cuts, which
are thick enough to touch the top and base
plate when the Gourmet Health Grill is closed.
Recommended Cuts
Beef
Sirloin (New York), rump,
rib eye, filet,
Lamb Trim lamb leg steaks, filet, eye of
loin, cutlets and diced lamb.
Pork
Butterfly loin steaks, spare ribs,
leg steaks, filet, diced pork.
•
Tougher cuts such as beef blade, topside
steak or lamb forequarter or neck chops
can be used. To tenderize these cuts,
marinate them for a few hours or overnight
in a marinade with wine or vinegar to help
break down the connective tissue.
•
Do not salt meat before cooking. Salt will
draw out the juices toughening the meat.
•
If using a marinade recipe or pre-
marinated meats from your meat retailer,
drain excess marinade off and dab with
kitchen paper before placing on the
Gourmet Health Grill. Some marinades
contain high sugar levels, which can
scorch on the Grill plate when cooked.
•
Do not over cook meat; even pork is
better served pink and juicy.
•
Do not pierce meat with a fork or cut
meat while cooking. This will let the juices
escape, resulting in a tougher dry steak.
Use tongs instead.
•
When removing fish pieces, use a flat
heat resistant plastic spatula to support
the food.
•
Parboiling sausages can alleviate the
need to pierce sausages before cooking.
