Learn how to effectively use your Tepro "Detroit" Barrel Grill for optimal grilling results.
5.1. Charcoal Preparation and Lighting
- Place charcoal (max. 3.0 kg) onto the charcoal sheets within the fire tray.
- Use a charcoal chimney starter or appropriate charcoal starter fluid to ignite the charcoal. Allow the charcoal to ash over completely (typically 15-20 minutes) before placing food on the grates.

5.2. Controllo della temperatura
The grill features a triple grill height adjustment for precise temperature control. Adjust the height of the grill grates relative to the embers:
- Posizione più alta: For lower temperatures, ideal for slow cooking or keeping food warm.
- Posizione inferiore: For higher temperatures, suitable for searing and quick cooking.
