A COMPLETE GUIDE TO COOKING WITH YOUR CERAMIC CHARCOAL BARBECUE

ENGLISH
ABOUT YOUR CERAMIC CHARCOAL BARBECUE
Ceramic charcoal barbecues are extremely versatile. Not only can
they be used for grilling or smoking, but also pizzas, bread, pies and
cookies can be baked effortlessly inside them.
Due to their excellent heat retention properties, high temperatures
can be achieved and maintained by precise control of airflow via
the top and bottom vents. High temperatures are ideal for quickly
cooking burgers and sausages, while low heats can cook larger cuts
over a longer period of time.
Try adding some wood chips to the charcoal, or try combining different
flavour wood chips to make your meats even more flavourful.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
This product is intended for outdoor use only. Do not use indoors.
Never leave a burning fire unattended. Always keep children and pets
at a safe distance from the oven when in use.
May emit hot embers while in use.
never light this
product, let it smolder or cool down in confined spaces.
Do not use this product in a tent, caravan, car, cellar, loft or boat. Do
not use this ceramic unit as a furnace.
Do not use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or
other similar chemicals for lighting or relighting. Use only firelighters
complying to 1860-3.
It is highly recommended that you use lump charcoal in your ceramic
barbecue. It burns for longer and produces less ash, which can restrict
the airflow. Do not use coal in this product.
When opening the lid at high temperatures it is
essential to lift the lid only slightly, which allows air to enter slowly
and safely, preventing any back-draft or flare-ups that may cause
injury. Do not use under any awnings, parasols or gazebos.
Always follow the cooking temperature guide stated in this
instruction manual.
Do not use the ceramic charcoal barbecue on decking or any other
combustible surfaces such as dry grass, wood chips, leaf mulch,
or decorative bark. Ensure that the ceramic charcoal barbecue is
positioned at least two meters away from flammable items.
This product will become very hot. Always use heat
resistant gloves when handling hot ceramics or cooking surfaces.
Allow the unit to cool down completely before moving or storing. Do
not move it during operation.
Always inspect the unit prior to use for fatigue and damage, and
replace as and when necessary.

FIRST USE - CURING THE UNIT
Curing your ceramic charcoal barbecue is important for its long-term
operation and care. Avoiding the curing procedure could lead to
damage on the unit. If the first burns are too hot, they could damage
the felt gasket seal before it has had the chance to mature with use.
To start your first fire, place one lighter cube or solid firelighters and
one handful of lump charcoal on top of the charcoal plate (7). Open
the bottom vent and light the lighter cube using a long-nosed lighter
or safety matches.
Do not use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other similar
chemicals for lighting or relighting.
Once the lump charcoal has caught, cure the unit by closing the lid,
and leaving both vents mostly closed. See Cooking Temperature
Guide for Smoking (83ºC - 108ºC / 180ºF - 225ºF). Burn until
all the fuel is used and the fire is extinguished. This should take
approximately two hours. Do not overload the unit with fuel.
After first use, inspect all fasteners. The metal band connecting your
lid to the base will expand from the heat and could become loose. It
is recommended you check and tighten the band, if necessary, with a
wrench. You can now use your ceramic charcoal barbecue as normal.
LIGHTING
When using the ceramic charcoal barbecue, push down on both of
the locking wheels to stop the unit from moving around during use.
Ensure the ceramic barbecue is positioned on a permanent, flat, level,
heat-resistant non-flammable surface, away from flammable items.
Position the ceramic charcoal barbecue with a minimum of 2 m
overhead clearance and at least 2 m clearance from other surrounding
items.
1. To start a fire, place rolled-up newspaper and some lighter cubes
or solid firelighters on the charcoal plate (7), in the base of the
ceramic charcoal barbecue. Then, place two or three handfuls of
lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
2. Do not use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other
similar chemicals for lighting or relighting.
3. Open the bottom vent and light the newspaper using a long-
nosed lighter or safety matches. Once it has caught, leave the
bottom vent and lid open for about 10 minutes to build a small
bed of hot embers.
4. Allow the charcoal to heat up and keep it red hot for at least
30 minutes prior to the first cooking on the ceramic charcoal
barbecue. Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.
5. It is recommended that you do not stoke or turn the coals once
they are alight. This allows the charcoals to burn more uniformly
ENGLISH
5
and efficiently.
6. Once alight, only use heat-resistant gloves when handling hot
ceramics or cooking surfaces.
Read through this manual for a complete detailed guide on cooking
temperatures for grilling.
REFUELING
With the top and bottom vent closed, the ceramic charcoal barbecue
will stay at a high temperature for several hours.
If you require a longer cooking time (e.g. when roasting a whole cut
or slow-smoking), it may be necessary to add more charcoal. Open
the lid, add additional charcoal, and continue to cook as directed in
this manual.
EXTINGUISHING
To extinguish unit: stop adding fuel and close all the vents and the lid
to allow the fire to die naturally.
Do not use water to extinguish the charcoal as this could damage the
ceramic charcoal barbecue.
STORAGE
When not in use, and if stored outside, cover the ceramic charcoal
barbecue once completely cooled with a suitable rain cover.
It is recommended the ceramic charcoal barbecue be stored under
cover in a garage or shed over winter for complete protection.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
The ceramic charcoal barbecue is self-cleaning. Heat it up to 260ºC /
500ºF for 30 minutes and it will scorch off all food and debris.
NOTE: Do not use water or any other types of cleaning product to
clean the inside of your ceramic charcoal barbecue. The walls are
porous and will absorb any fluids used, which could cause the ceramic
charcoal barbecue to crack.
After the ceramic charcoal barbecue has cooled, if the soot becomes
excessive, use the ash tool (14) to scrape off the carbon remnants
before the next use. Carefully open the bottom vent and rake the
soot into a small waste container under the vent opening. Dispose of
container, or store for future use (soot).
To clean the grills and grates, use a non-abrasive cleaner once the unit
has fully cooled. The chrome-plated cooking grill is not dishwasher
safe; use a mild detergent with warm water.
To clean the outer surface, wait until the ceramic charcoal barbecue
is cool and use a damp cloth with a mild detergent. It is important
to check and tighten the bands, and oil the hinges, twice a year or
more if needed. You should not be able to easily turn a hex key while
holding the nut in place.
COOKING TEMPERATURE GUIDE
Do not adjust top or bottom vent while the ceramic
charcoal barbecue is in use. This could result in serious injury. It is
recommended to always use heat-resistant gloves when working
with hot appliances.

GENERAL FOOD SAFETY
Read and follow this advice when cooking on your ceramic charcoal
barbecue:
• Do not cook until the fuel has a coating of ash.
• Before cooking, ensure grill surfaces and tools are clean and free
of old food residues.
• Always wash your hands before and after handling uncooked
meat, and before eating.
• Do not use the same utensils to handle cooked and uncooked
foods. Always keep raw meat away from cooked meat, and
other foods.
• Ensure all meat is cooked thoroughly before eating.
CAUTION: Eating raw or undercooked meat can cause food poisoning
(e.g. bacteria strains such as E.coli). To reduce the risk of undercooked
meat, cut open to ensure it is cooked all the way through.
CAUTION: If the meat has been cooked sufficiently, the meat juice
should be clear and there should be no traces of pink/red juice,
or meat colouring. Pre-cooking larger pieces of meat and cuts is

CONDITIONS OF WARRANTY
The Ceramic series by Louisiana Grills, manufactured by Dansons
Inc., carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty from the date of sale by the
original owner only.
The warranty coverage begins on the original date of purchase and
proof of date of purchase, or copy of original bill of sale, is required
to validate the warranty.
CERAMIC PARTS
Dansons carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty on all ceramic parts used
to manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue. Dansons warrants
that all part(s) are free of defects in material and workmanship, for
the length of use and ownership of the original purchaser.
Warranty does not cover damage from wear and tear, such as
scratches, dents, dings, chips or minor cosmetic cracks. These
aesthetic changes of the grill do not affect its performance.
Upon close inspection, the finish of your ceramic charcoal barbecue
may appear to have crack lines. This is not cracking of the ceramic.
This is known as crazing and is caused by the different expansion
rates between the glaze finish and the clay.
Available for purchase separately.
PIZZA STONE & ELEVATOR
Essential accessory for evenly cooking crispy pizzas, flatbreads and
other delights.
HEAT DEFLECTOR
Enjoy cooking without open flame by evenly distributing heat across
the grids.
CHICKEN THRONE
Stand-up flavour cooked in your chicken, with your favourite choice
of marinade.
GRID GRIPPERS
Allows you to lift the pizza stone or cooking grids when they are too
hot to handle.
GRILL COVER
When the ceramic charcoal barbecue has cooled and is not in use,
cover it with a rain cover for extra protection.
The spider-web pattern of cracking is
different from a break in the aspect that
it cannot be felt on the surface, unless
using a fingernail; however, it does
become more visually apparent when
the surface is dusty or magnified. While
these may appear as imperfections,
crazing does not affect the performance or life span of your ceramic
charcoal barbecue; therefore, not a warranty issue. The process of
crazing effectively increases the toughness of the unit.
During the term of the limited warranty, Dansons’ obligation shall be
limited to furnishing a replacement for covered, failed components,
F.O.B. point of shipment.
METAL & CAST-IRON PARTS
Dansons carries a five year warranty on all metal and cast iron parts
used to manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue. Dansons warrants
that all part(s) are free of defects in material and workmanship, for
the length of use and ownership of the original purchaser.
High temperatures, excessive humidity, chlorine, industrial fumes,
chemicals, fertilizers, lawn pesticides and salt are some of the
substances that can affect metal parts. For these reasons, the
warranty does not cover rust or oxidization.
Kindly refer to your manual for proper cleaning and maintenance
of your ceramic charcoal barbecue. Dansons recommends that you
10
ENGLISH
purchase a full-length protective cover, and to cover your grill when
not in use. Even with these safeguards, the ceramic charcoal barbecue
can be compromised by various substances and conditions beyond
Dansons’ control.
WOOD PARTS
Dansons carries a one year warranty on all wood and composite
components used to manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue.
Warranty does not cover cosmetic or color changes, weathering or
cracks, unless there is a loss of structural integrity. Refer to your
Instruction Manual’s section for proper care of wood products.
Warranty does not cover damage from wear and tear, such as
scratches, dents, dings, chips or minor cosmetic cracks. These
aesthetic changes of the grill do not affect its performance.
THERMOMETER
Dansons carries a one year warranty on the temperature gauge used
to manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue. Warranty does not
cover rust, oxidation, or other blemishes, due to lack of cleaning or
maintenance.
CASTER WHEELS
Dansons carries a one year warranty on the castor wheels used to
manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue. Warranty does not
cover rust, oxidation, or other blemishes, due to lack of cleaning or
maintenance.
VOID OF WARRANTY
The use or abuse of this product for purposes other than that for
which it is designed will void the warranty.
Damage caused by lack of proper use, assembly, maintenance or
installation is not covered. The pouring of lighter fluid or other liquids
on your grill will void this warranty. This could result in damage or
serious injury to the user of the ceramic charcoal barbecue, and result
in excessive damage to the grill and its many parts and components.
This warranty is only applicable if the ceramic charcoal barbecue
is purchased through an authorized dealer. The purchase of any
product by a third party, or unauthorized dealer, voids the warranty.
Only select dealers and retailers have permission, by Dansons, to sell
Ceramic series products.
WARRANTY EXEMPTIONS
This warranty is based on normal and domestic use and service of
the product. Damages or breakage caused by accidents, natural
disasters, unauthorized attachments or modifications, or damage
during transport are also not covered.
Warranty does not cover damage from wear and tear, such as
scratches, dents, dings, chips or minor cosmetic cracks. These
aesthetic changes of the grill do not affect its performance.
This limited lifetime warranty gives you specific legal rights and you
may have other rights, which vary based on locale.
Neither the manufacturer nor the suppliers to the purchaser accept
responsibility, legal or otherwise, for the incidental or consequential
damage to the property or persons resulting from the use of this
product. This warranty will not apply if your appliance has not been
installed, operated, cleaned and maintained in strict accordance with
the manual’s instructions. Burning poor or low-quality charcoal may
void the warranty.
All warranties by manufacturer are set forth herein and no claim
shall be made against manufacturer on any oral warranty or
representation. Whether a claim is made against the manufacturer
based on the breach of this warranty or any other type of warranty
expressed or implied by law, manufacturer shall in no event be liable
for any special, indirect, consequential or other damages of any
nature whatsoever in excess of the original purchase price of this
product.

ASSEMBLY PROBLEMS
1. Do not over-tighten bolts. Only tighten all bolts with moderate
pressure to avoid damaging the bolts or components of the
ceramic charcoal barbecue.
2. Thermometer won’t read. Call Customer Service.
3. Damper won’t slide. Tap the damper lightly with a rubber
hammer to loosen. If no improvement, call Customer Service.
FIRE PROBLEMS
1. If you have trouble lighting the barbecue, ensure that both the
top and bottom vents are open. The fire needs oxygen to catch.
Once it has caught, leave the bottom vent and lid open for about
10 minutes to build a small bed of hot embers.
2. The barbecue may quickly lose fire if there is not enough charcoal
in the ceramic body. The recommended use of lump charcoal is a
maximum of 4lbs per burn.
Be sure not to overload the unit with fuel. If the fire is too
intense, the excessive heat could damage the ceramic charcoal
barbecue.
3. To prevent any back-draft or flare-ups that may cause injury, it is
well advised to lift the lid only slightly (also known as burping),
which allows air to enter slowly and safely.
FINISHING PROBLEMS
1. The paint is chipped on the ceramic. Use the touch-up paint
provided. If chipping is substantial, call Customer Service.
2. The spider-web pattern of cracking is different from a break in
the aspect that it cannot be felt on the surface, unless using
a fingernail; however, it does become more visually apparent
when the surface is dusty or magnified. While these may appear
as imperfections, crazing does not affect the performance or life
span of your ceramic charcoal barbecue. The process of crazing
effectively increases the toughness of the unit.
3. Curing your ceramic charcoal barbecue is important for its long-
term operation and care. If the first burns are too hot, they
could damage the felt gasket seal before it has had the chance
to mature with use.
If the lid gets stuck, or sealed, together with the base, use a
knife to carefully unseal and cut off the felt gasket that trims
the lid opening. Once removed, you will be able to open the lid.
Before continuing to use the unit, replace the high-heat felt

PERFECTLY GRILLED STEAKS
Makes 2–4 servings
Ingredients:
2 rib-eye steaks (3cm / 1¼ inch thick)
Louisiana Grills Chop House Steak Rub seasoning
Directions:
1. No more than an hour before grilling, let steaks come to room
temperature.
2. Generously sprinkle Louisiana Grills Chop House Steak Rub to
both sides of each steak, allowing time for the rub to melt into
the meat.
3. Light your ceramic charcoal barbecue to 205°C / 400°F. Place
steaks directly on the grill. For a medium done steak, sear each
side for 5–7 minutes, flipping the steaks only once. Adjust time
to your desired doneness.
4. Remove steaks from the grill, cover with tin foil, and let sit 10
minutes before slicing and serving.
Use tongs to flip steaks. Do not flip the steaks with a fork or
cut into the meat until ready to serve. Any cuts or punctures in the

TEMPERATURE PROBLEMS
1. My barbecue gets too hot. Close the lid, mostly close both vents,
and allow the barbecue to smother with lack of oxygen. For low
temperature cooking, use less fuel.
2. My barbecue doesn’t get hot enough. Add more fuel and leave
both vents completely open. More oxygen flow will allow the
fire to increase, burning more lump charcoal.
If the problem is not fixable to one of the above solutions, please
contact our Louisiana Grills Customer Service department.
Do not return the product to the retailer -- they do not provide
service or technical support.
