- Alternatively, use approved solid fire starters placed among the charcoal.
- Allow charcoal to burn until covered with a light gray ash (approximately 15-20 minutes) before spreading them out and placing the cooking grate.
5.3. Контрола на температурата
Your Mueller BBQ Buddy features a dual vent system for precise temperature management.
- Долна вентилација: Controls the airflow to the charcoal, affecting how hot the coals burn. Open for higher temperatures, close for lower temperatures.
- Lid Vent: Controls the airflow out of the grill, influencing internal temperature and smoke circulation. Open for higher temperatures, close to retain heat and smoke.
- Adjust both vents in conjunction to achieve and maintain your desired cooking temperature.

- Индиректна топлина: For larger cuts of meat or foods that require longer cooking times, such as roasts or whole chickens. Arrange coals to one side and place food on the other side of the cooking grate.
- Готвење со конвекција: The domed lid allows for convection-style cooking, circulating heat evenly for juicier and more succulent food. Keep the lid closed as much as possible to maintain consistent temperature and smoke flavor.
