Cast Iron Grates
The best chefs use cast iron grills because cast iron heats evenly, and quickly sears food to
lock in the juices and natural flavour. Cast Iron is also ideal for great steak house markings.
(see Cast Iron Grate Feature elsewhere in this manual).
Cooking Settings
Pre Heat
The PREHEAT setting will give an oven temperature of over 600ºF (316ºC), depending on weather
conditions. This setting is used to quickly preheat your grill as well as to finish the cleaning cycles for
the cast iron grills and the “Grillmate”. Could also be used as a HIGH setting in extreme cold weather
conditions.
High
The HIGH setting will give an oven temperature of approximately 500ºF – 550ºF, depending on the
weather. This setting is ideal for quickly searing steaks and chops.
Medium / Ignite
The MEDIUM / IGNITE setting will give an oven temperature of approximately 350ºF (177ºC) when the
lid is closed and the weather conditions permit. This setting is recommended for finishing cooking
steaks, hamburgers, chops, etc. This setting is also used to IGNITE your Louisiana Grill. This setting
allows just enough pellets to feed and the proper air to transfer heat from the igniter to start the wood
pellet fuel.
Low
The LOW setting will give an approximate oven temperature of 310ºF to 350ºF (154ºC – 177ºC).
Smoke
The SMOKE setting will give an approximate oven temperature of 200ºF to 220ºF. This setting is used
to slow roast and the increase the smoke flavour of your favourite food. Highly recommended for that
BIG BIRD at Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, Birthdays, and all other important holidays.
TIP: The temperatures listed above are all approximate and will be affected by
the outside temperature, the amount of wind present, and the length and type
of pellet fuel being used.
After Cooking
One of the greatest benefits of your Louisiana Grill is the minimal clean up required. When you are
finished cooking and waiting just a little while to let the flavour set in that prime selection of meat, turn
the control know to PREHEAT for 5 minutes. Let the grill heat up, then turn the knob all the way
counter clockwise, past the OFF click and you’re DONE. A quick wipe up of the stainless steel counter
top, using a cloth and mild soap, let the unit cool and put your Louisiana Grill to bed with the optional
GRILL COVER.
CAUTION: Grease fires are caused by not properly maintaining your grill, or failing to clean your clean
out drawer on a consistent basis. In the unlikely event you experience a grease fire while cooking, keep
the lid closed. If it does not go out is a very short time, open the lid and lightly sprinkle baking soda on
the fire. Be careful not to burn yourself. If this does not work, then carefully remove the food from the
grates, turn the temperature control to OFF and shut the lid until the fire is completely out.

TIP: It is recommended practise to always go through the INITIAL SET
UP Procedures after every 5 to 10 uses. This will ensure proper
ignition and many happy grilling experiences.
Automatic Start Up
Place COOKING MODE SWITCH to the COOK
position.
Turn the FEED CONTROL (temperature output) to the IGNITE position.
Press the START BUTTON.
• This initiates the start up cycle, which includes; the auger will start to turn, the iginiter
will begin to glow, the igniter indicator will light and the combustion fan will start.
• The grill now has 30 minutes to produce heat before it will shut down automatically.
• The iginiter and igniter indicator will turn off automatically when you’re the
temperature sensor switch reaches 120ºF or 30 minutes.
Your grill will begin to produce smoke while the start up cycle is taking place. Close the lid.
The grill is operational once the smoke as cleared. To check open the lid of your grill and a
flame will be visible in the burn pot area. You will be able to view this without having to touch
any hot surfaces.
Turn the FUEL FEED to PREHEAT
and allow unit to preheat for approximately 10 minutes.
CAUTION: If excessive flame is visible i.e. FLAME DEFLECTOR is glowing bright red, turn the
FEED CONTROL down.
After the pre-heating is complete you are now ready to enjoy your grilling experience
NOTE: Different wood pellets will produce different temperatures; as well the outside
temperature and weather conditions will also affect your cooking temperature. The markings
on the CONTROL LABEL are approximate.
NEVER add pellets by hand to a hot fire pot. This is dangerous and you may get seriously
burned. If you do run out of fuel and you lose your fire while cooking, open the lid, turn off all
controls, and let the unit completely cool. The grill will go through its SHUT DOWN cycle
automatically. Once the SHUT DOWN cycle is complete. re-fill the hopper and go through the
normal LIGHTING procedure.
NOTE: If the fire does not start, the Grill will continue to feed pellets and the fan will run for
approximately 30 minutes. The grill will then automatically shut off. If this happens, some
unburned pellets will build up in the burn grate. To restart the fire, clean the excess pellets
out of the burn grate and follow the above steps.
