COOKING SYSTEM
A
Bowl and Lid
The air-insulated, double-wall bowl and lid retain heat for longer cook times and excellent temperature
control. The unique kettle shape of your SUMMIT charcoal grill allows for true convection cooking.
B
Dampers and Vents
A major component in charcoal grilling is air. The more air allowed into the grill, the hotter the fire will
grow (to a point) causing the charcoal to burn much faster. The bowl vent on the bottom of the grill should
be open while grilling or in the smoke position while smoking. The top damper is used to control the
temperature within the grill; however, should never be completely closed.
C
Cooking Grate
Made of heavy-duty stainless steel, the cooking grate provides ample area to make all of your favorite
meals.
D
Diffuser Plate
The stainless steel diffuser plate is used to maintain a consistent temperature and to direct heat and
smoke around the food. It is always used while smoking. However, it can also be used while cooking
indirectly to maximize grilling space.
E
Fuel Grate
The fuel grate has what it takes to withstand the heat of any charcoal fire. Made of heavy-duty steel, this
durable grate will not warp or burn through. The grate can be moved to a higher position in the bowl for
grilling and lower position for smoking.
F
ONE-TOUCH Cleaning System
The stainless steel ONE-TOUCH cleaning system makes cleanup hassle free. As you move the handle
back and forth, the three blades in the bowl move ash from the bottom of the grill into the high capacity
ash catcher for quick and clean ash removal. These same vents act as a bowl damper, to help bring
oxygen up to the fire or to allow you to easily extinguish the fire.
