CHARCOAL GRILLING RECIPES
Tips for Grilling the Perfect Steak Allow 3/4 to 1lb per person for bone-in steak or 1lb per person for boneless steak. Choose steaks that are at least 1-inch thick. Bring steaks to room temperature. This makes it easier to estimate grilling time. Trim off fat to 1/8 inch and score edges to keep them from curling on the grill. On the grill, flip steaks when juices start bubbling on the un-cooked side. Second side of steak needs less grilling time than first. Salt & pepper each browned side of steak after turning. Test for doneness by making a knife slice beside bone. Original Ranch Cheeseburgers 1 packet/1 oz. Hidden Valley Original Ranch Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix 1 lb ground beef 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 4 hamburger buns Combine seasoning & salad dressing mix with beef and cheese. Shape into four (4) patties. Cook thoroughly until meat is no longer pink in center. Toast buns before serving, if desired. Serves 4.

Thread onto skewers*,allowing 1-2 ribbons of beef per skewer. In bowl, combine barbecue sauce, shallots, lemon juice, lemon peel, garlic and pepper. Brush skewered beef generously with sauce mixture. Place over hot coals in covered grill. Grill 2-3 minutes on each side. *If using bamboo skewers, soak in water 30 minutes before use. Seafood Grill 1 cup KC Masterpiece Original Barbecue Sauce 1 cup lemon juice 1 lb large prawns, shelled and deveined 1 lb large scallops 4-6 skewers* (square-shaped skewers work best) In bowl, combine barbecue sauce and lemon juice. Add prawns and scallops; let stand 30 minutes to marinate, mixing occasionally. Thread prawns and scallops on separate skewers. Place 6 inches over hot coals. Grill 2-3 minutes, baste, turn and baste again. Cook until prawns are pink and scallops are opaque, about 4-6 minutes total. *If using bamboo skewers, soak in water 30 minutes before use. 17 Original Ranch Pork Chops 1 packet / 1 oz Hidden Valley Original Ranch Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix 1 tsp black pepper 6 pork chops (about 3/4 inch thick) Dash of paprika Combine seasoning and salad dressing mix with pepper. Rub mixture on both sides of pork chops. Arrange pork on grill and sprinkle with paprika. Grill until cooked through. Serves 4-6. Grilled Red Potatoes with Hickory Brown Sugar Butter 8 red potatoes, 2-inch diameter (approx. 1 lb.) 2 tbs water cup KC Masterpiece Hickory Brown Sugar Barbecue Sauce cup salted butter, melted Peel off 1-inch strip of skin around the middle of each potato.

THE HISTORY OF THE ORIGINAL CHARCOAL
In the 1920s, Henry Ford realized that the wood scrap by-products created by the production of his Model T-Fords could be used as a slow-burning cooking fuel. As a result, Charcoal briquets were born. In building the charcoal plant, E.G. Kingsford, a relative of Fords, brokered the deal for the manufacturing site that would produce these new charcoal briquets, Ford named Kingsford Charcoal in his honor. Today, the Kingsford Manufacturing Company remains the leading manufacturer of charcoal in the U.S. More than one million tons of wood scraps are converted into quality charcoal briquets every year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS REGARDING CHARCOAL GRILLS
Q: How do I care for my cast iron cooking grates? When using cast iron grates proper seasoning is important. Grates must be washed thoroughly with a mild detergent, rinsed with hot water and then dried completely with a soft cloth or paper towel. NEVER ALLOW TO AIR DRY OR WASH IN A DISHWASHER. Seasoning will prevent rust and food from sticking. Season by applying a thin coating of solid vegetable shortening over the entire surface, including all corners. Place cooking grates in grill and allow to heat for 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Grates are now ready to use. Frequent re-seasoning prevents rusting. Q: My grates have rust on them. How do I get rid of it? If rust occurs, clean with a steel brush. Reapply vegetable shortening and heat as indicated above. Q: The paint finish inside my lid is peeling. What can I do? You are seeing a deposit of grease and smoke that collects during normal use that resembles paint. These carbon deposits are non-toxic, but you may want to regularly remove the build-up. Remove buildup using a brass or stiff bristle brush before grilling. Future build-up can be avoided by simply wiping the grill lid while slightly warm with a mild soap-and-water solution. Q: When can I put my meat on the grill? Grill is ready for use when charcoal is ashed over and no visible flames are present. Q: How do I regulate the heat on my grill? Adjusting the dampers will increase and decrease airflow and heating.

STEP 3.

Position rear long leg (16) on grill body end. Attach side shelf (3) with bolt (A) and hex flange nut (B) through both legs as shown. Insert final bolt (A) through rear long leg and grill body. Attach hex flange nut (B) and tighten.

SAFE STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect bolt, hex lock nut and hex flange nut tightness on a regular basis to insure grill is in safe working condition. ALWAYS allow grill to cool completely before handling. ALWAYS empty charcoal pan after use only when ashes have completely cooled. This will help prolong charcoal pan life. Clean grill, including special surfaces such as cooking grates with mild cleaning agents. Wipe outside of grill with damp rag. DO NOT use oven cleaner. ALWAYS cover and store cold grill in a protected area. Indoor storage of grill is permissible only if the charcoal has burned to a complete ash AND is cold. Remember to remove cold ashes before storing. Grill is made of steel and may rust over time. If rusting occurs on outside surfaces, clean area with sand paper or steel wool, then cover with heat resistant paint. If rusting occurs on the inside surface of grill, clean area with sandpaper or steel wool, then coat with cooking oil. NEVER USE PAINT ON INSIDE SURFACES OF GRILL 13
